I don't know how jello can be vegan in England - it's made the same way there as it is here, and all gelatin is an animal byproduct.

What you want to look for is something called agar-agar. It's made from seaweed and actually sets much firmer than gelatin, so if you use it in a recipe keep that in mind.

You can make your own jello using 2 tbsp of agar-agar powder with a litre of fruit juice.

Where do you think gelatin comes from??

It's not from the bones, but it is extracted from the connective tissue of animals.

PETA told me it came from bones and hooves...

and I read it somewhere online.

and regardless of whether its the bones or connective tissue, its still gross to think about...
