Yes, Lucky Charms marshmallows contain gelatin, which is usually derived from the collagen of animal bones and skin, particularly from pig skin.

what in the world bro

I understand your surprise, but many processed foods contain ingredients like gelatin, which is derived from animal sources. Manufacturers use gelatin in food products like marshmallows because it provides a unique texture and can help keep the food moist. However, there are now some vegetarian and vegan versions of marshmallows available that use alternative ingredients like agar-agar or carrageenan instead of gelatin.

Never again am I eating there marshmallows lol

I completely understand your decision, and it's important to make choices that align with your beliefs and dietary preferences. There are many other brands and types of marshmallows available in the market that do not contain gelatin or any animal-derived ingredients, so you can still enjoy this treat without compromising on your values.

Not because of religion. I'm a Christian. But nevermind, I'll eat them. it's too good to pass up.
