minus-squarenew_guy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up92·7 days agoPaintballs are made of gelatin. Gelatin is often just collagen and collagen is basically connective tissue.

minus-squareFooBarrington@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·6 days agoYou’re gonna try and tell me that not a single bear ever fell into a vat of gelatine?

minus-squareKacarott@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·6 days agoI think you have vegan confused with sugar-free? Sugar is vegan :)
minus-squareTheOakTree@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 days agoI learned from a friend that a lot of white sugar is bleached with the help of animal bones, so sugar isn’t vegan across the board.
