NOW FoodsBeef Gelatin Powder, Natural Thickening Agent, Source of Protein, 4-Pound

Mix with my coffee and I don't taste it - at all. Now I'm tossing gelatin powder in everything and my protein intake is skyrocketing. Had a lady check my ID because I didn't look old enough for the senior discount, so skin is looking good too. Be sure to bloom it before adding to recipes and you'll never get gelatin lumps.

Work well and glad I can buy gelatin in this larger size at this great price. I use a lot of gelatin so the larger size is awesome.

love this for making my own jello! easy for a fun snack especially in the warmer months

I keep this gelatin on hand so I can make my own jello recipe with stevia.

If you are wondering which kind of beef gelatin to get here are the comparisons after 3 years of buying beef gelatin.We bought beef gelatin back when it came in the 5lb bag and liked it. Then when we needed more we couldn't find it so we ordered the Great Lakes Beef Gelatin that comes in a can - both the regular (red can) and hydrolysate (easy to mix - green can). Then we found Now Foods beef gelatin which some are saying is the same as what used to come in the bag. I'm not so sure about that.We sometimes like to make very firm gello with juices or coconut and sometimes like it in a drink or coffee. Here are the differences:>The original bagged had to be heated and dissolved well but you could make it firm or not depending on your mixing ratio. Not good for mixing in drinks.>The Great Lake Hydrolysate (green can) is great for mixing with cold or hot drinks as it dissolves easily and quickly so this is good if you need it daily for joint care.>The Great Lakes beef gelatin in the red can makes great firm jello and dissolves a little easier than the bagged stuff we used to get when heating for jello. This is important because if you heat on too high of a temperature, simmering or boiling will greatly decrease the flavors and quality of the juice. Great Lakes in the can disolves better when heating on low for great jello BUT it is not good for mixing with drinks and coffee.>NOW Foods beef gelatin (the kind this review is for and pictured above) is a good all around gelatin for making jello or mixing with drinks and coffee so you do not need to have two kinds of gelatin around. The only draw back is we couldn't make our super firm jello we like without having to add lots and lots of the gelatin in the juice and then if you add too much it will not completely dissolve. For most people who like normal jello this is not a problem and it makes great light to medium firmness jello.All these beef gelatins had a good taste far superior to the knox crap in the store which I remember tasted nasty. I do not eat pork anymore and find the beef gelatin to be much better in every way to the pork gelatin so even if you do eat pork I recommend trying beef gelatin. If you need firm gelatin for gummy bears or stiff jello get the Great Lakes in the red can. If you want it as a supplement for drinking get the Great Lakes hydrolysate in the green can and if you want one good for most uses get this NOW Foods beef gelatin. If I could give 4.5 stars I would but have to dock it because we like super firm.OK, I'm done.

As Described

Tasteless and dissolves perfectly in hot water. I'm trying this for my first time ever in hopes of making my face look better. I'm 45 and my skin just isn't what it use to be. Gonna try two tablespoons a day to see what happens. I just got this today. So will update after a couple weeks.

Dissolves easily and great value.No bad odor like with some other gelatins.
