Jello and marshmallows aren't vegan for WTF reasons
Yeah, they usually contain gelatin, which is extracted from animal skins and bones.
Vegan gelling agents are available (and in fact, marshmallows originally used marshmallow roots), but I guess, gelatin is just so cheap, because it's a waste product from animal slaughter.
So no more jello in my coffee either?
Same with most bread, beer, wine, apple juice, potato chips and white sugar.
I knew about the others, but what about bread and potato chips is not vegan?
Bread often contains L-Cysteine, made from hog hair or poultry feathers, as a baking aid. It is labelled as food additive E920.
Potato chips often contain whey powder, and some aromas contain animal products even if you wouldn't expect it.
