Candies such as Gummy worms, Gummy bears, Sour Patch Kids, Gummy sharks, Sour Punch etc. What is in them that give different firmness, longevity, and/or elasticity?
In: Chemistry
Gelatin. Its made from boiling animal bones, and gives chewy candies that gummy sort of texture. There are other non-animal sources for chemicals that produce similar results but gelatin is (afaik) the most common by far.
