started me thinking. there are gelatin-like thickening agents made from japanese seaweeds. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agar hmm looks like its from a similar species to irish moss. red seaweeds.

my brain is fried from the heat, but there are even other similar things

anyway, i wish seaweed was more commonly eaten in north america. it is incredibly good for you and imho doesnt have any particular strong taste.

Different genus/species, but similar products. You have me wondering whether agar can be used as a vegan gelatin substitute for fining post-fermentation.
