FWIW, I'm pretty sure isinglass pretty much _is_ gelatin, and by the
time it is processed it is largely indistinguishable as an ingredient
from land-animal sources. It's just gelatin derived from sturgeon
swim bladders, used for making jellies that would not otherwise be
appropriate on non-meat days.
