Gelatin can be added to food and is a legal food additive. Gelatin is mainly extracted from collagen in connective tissues such as animal skin, bones, and fascia, and is a type of protein.

It is commonly used as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier in the food industry, which can improve the toughness and elasticity of food and enhance its taste.

Gelatin is widely used in food, commonly found in jelly, gummies, ice cream, canned goods, sausages, gummy candies, yogurt, and other foods.

In addition to food grade gelatin, there are also industrial grade gelatin that cannot be used in food as ingestion may be harmful to the body.

Therefore, the application of gelatin in food is safe, but it is necessary to ensure that the gelatin used meets food grade standards.
