Nas says that 5% of the population says there is pork in jell-o.  Mono and tri-glycerides-- the stuff that makes it jiggle? Is that right?

Gelatin in the United States contains boiled bones, skins and tendons of animals. (Seriously. Look it up.) In order to not eat that stuff when you eat Jello, you'd have to buy a Kosher replacement, which is some kind of seaweed. Basically, if you want to be vegetarian, Jello is out.

Everyone has gas. It's not abnormal even though it is embarassing. Usually it comes from the types of food that you eat. Certain vegetables will cause more gas than others, and greasy food will cause it too. I actually read somewhere that if you are "gassy" that means you are healthy. I'm not sure how true that is, but it sounds good to me!! LOL

Yes, Jews are permitted to sell pork, as we see the prohibition as only that Jews may not eat it.  There may be a difficulty, however, if the Jew were to sell to another Jew.\n\nOddly enough, pork is NOT the most forbidden food.  Milk and meat combinations, such as a cheeseburger, are even more problematic.  Not only may I not eat it, I may not cook it, sell it, or even give it away as a gift to a non-Jewish buddy!

my bacon is prewrapped, as far as the hot dog dilemma what happens is when you have your barbecue and finish your dogs you generally load em up rite off the grill to the bun, then the inevitable happens a dropped dog!!! you can rinse off the dog not the bun ,hence you toss the effected bun and use your reserve bun and voila soups on.Now all this is made possible due to the large quantities of liquor associated with these outdoor events.I hope i have made your road to knowledge a little smoother,lets do it again soon.

The answer is false. There's a variety of red Jelly Belly flavors. Cinnamon is my favorite.

Heck yeh!  Slide me that jar Clyde.  Some of the other delicacies you can get 'round my neck of the woods is "Mountain Oysters" (Them's fried balls from cattle), pickled pigs feet, cow tongue, cow brain (called tripe), and pig intestine (called chitlins).\n\nBut, before you go makin' fun of us rednecks remember so called refined folks pay through the nose to eat eggs cut out of a fish belly (caviar), snails (escargot), and if you got the money to get to hoidy-toidy France you'll probably spend a mess of cash on frog legs.\n\nSo, don't laugh at us.  What's good for supper? is really a question that has a lot to do with where you pull your chair up to the table.\n\nAll this fussin' about grub has made me right hungry.  I think I'm gonna run down to the fillin' station and get me a handful of fried pork rinds and a grape nehi.  I might even finish it off with a moonpie.

Fermented food produces different types of fumes, some of which smell. Flatulence contains odorless gases, such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and methane, but it also contains the "oh-so-nasty" hydrogen sulfide, which causes the smell. If you have not noticed by now, some of the aforementioned fumes are flammable, like methane and oxygen, so you can, in fact, burn farts. Yes, you can set them aflame; it is not a myth, and a great way to impress the girls too... you do know I'm joking?\n\nHow much odor is produced also depends on the food you eat. Vegetarians might fart as often as meat-eaters, but their "serenades" do not smell as much because vegetables produce less hydrogen sulfide. The more sulfur rich the foods you eat, the more your farts will stink because bacteria will generate sulfides and mercaptans as they break down the nutrients. Beware: even though cauliflower is a vegetable, it also makes you stinky, so watch out!

That darn spaghetti monster story has got all the way out to alpha centaurie and they want to worship him. Was it spaghetti Os, because they only go for the meatball and long noodles, it looks much more intelligent. Maybe you should get going they will be pretty mad when it turns to mush without speaking..... O_O

While it is better than greasy food, it is loaded with salt and preservatives.  Not your best option. Go for the lean cuts of meat (without the salt)

Whole Foods Market (WFMI)  Had a big pullback recently\nWild Oats (OATS)\nUnited Natural Foods (UNFI) Distributor to places like WFMI and OATS.  Hard to go wrong with that as long as people eat more "natural" and organic food.\nHain Celestial (HAIN) The only organic food mfg. I know to trade.  Would love to hear about others.\n\nYou are smart to get on this megatrend, and there's plenty of time and easy money left for it if you stick around (have you ever heard anybody say there's still easy money in any stock market or sector????).  Anxiety about our poisoned environment will only increase, and Americans with money can only do one thing about it--insulate themselves as best they can with water purifiers and safer food and such.  With the Bush administration attacking environmental protections every day, "natural" and organic foods are getting free advertising worth billions.  The only down side is these stocks are not recession resistant like agribusiness food stocks.  If things get bad, people will go back to ingesting dangerous chemicals to save money.\n\nAnother related megatrend that head-in-the-sand Republicans are missing out on is the earth's population is systematically destroying its supply of usable fresh water.  The companies that can purify, move, desalinate, or control potable water are going to profit massively from endless demand for shrinking supply.

My father used insulin from pork (we are Jewish) that was all that was available for him at the time.  He was okay with it.  I am a type 1 diabetic and I would if I had to, but my current insulin's do not come from pork.  There are 3 different types of Jews, reform (what I am) Conservative, and Orthodox.  The Orthodox are the extreme ones and would more then likely compromise their health before taking any medications with pork product.

It isn't a word, but dang. Wouldn't that be the awesomest word ever? (Yes, I know, awesomest is not a word.) \n\nThis ham is porkalicious! Yeah dude. It should be a word. Indeed.

The bible was written by man and has been interpreted and twisted many times over.  Nobody really knows what the original books looked like.  Some of these things were surely taken out of context.  You can take anything and twist it into something it isn't.  Also lets face it times change.  Many believe the part of the bible (forgive me I cant give you an exact place) that tells you not to eat certain things such as animals with a split hoof (pork) were written for the protection of the people at the time.  Can you imagine what food poisoning rates must have been like before the fridge and stove?  Not to mention the safety practices of the FDA keeping our meat safe for us.  So the church asked us not to eat unsafe things.  Food poisoning still happens but I don't believe that I am going to hell for eating the pork chops in my freezer.  (of course some religions hold this belief very dear...please excuse me no offense intended) With religion you must have faith in what you believe.  God also gave us the wisdom to choose what we believe.  Are you asking us to tell you what to believe?  It sounds like you are having issues with your faith and are unsure where to place your belief.  I suggest you seek counseling within the church.  They can answer these questions for you.

The Gods and Goddesses of my religion don't care one way of the other about what I eat or don't eat.\n\nBut there's some really interesting stuff out there in cyberspace about the whole anti-pork stuff:\n\nhttp://www.islamset.com/hip/pork/Abdussalam.html#11
