Is gelatin made from cow hooves?

1 Answer
ANSWER

No, although urban legends claim it does. The collagen in gelatin does come from boiling the bones and hides of animals processed for their meat (usually cows and pigs). But hooves consist of a different protein, keratin, which can't produce gelatin.
