Although they aren’t meat, marshmallows can’t really be considered vegetarian. The gelatin in them is made from connective tissue and tendons. I am surprised this was not addressed since it was linked to from the vegetarian page.

There are vegetarian/vegan marshmallows available, but mostly not in regular grocery stores.

Please correct this so your readers don’t mistakenly feed vegetarian children gelatin from cows and pigs.

Thank you!
