      My son really likes it but I always think since its jelly it has gelatin and it's not halal, can you specify where it's gelatin comes from

      As far as I know these don't have gelatin listed in it because gelatin is derived from and animal and it says "no animal products or alcohol"

    How reassuring to hear it from consumer relations! I'm vegan and I've been so glad that Swedish Fish are too. I have a new blog all about Swedish Fish, and slowly getting a campaign going to make blueberry Swedish Fish a new flavor. Check it out! I want to know how you get those gelatin free Skittles! I think I might buy a pack someday just to keep as a trophy--incredible!

    I was just fighting with my father about whether Swedish fish is halal or not. I said let's look it up, and we found this website. My father promised me he will buy it all the time, even though he says it's bad fur my teeth
