Yes, the gelatine you use to make pudding or agar agar requires a process that involves beef.

I dun really know the process, but if you buy the gelatine (white box with red jelly cup) it says on the ingredients that it contains beef gelatine or something like that.

Asked my friend.

Jelly can be consume by Vegetarian.

It is a substance called gelatin that is sometimes found in jelly which makes your teacher says that.

But, NOT all jellies contain that.
And, a number of sweet contain that too.

Gelatin.

2. An edible jelly (sweet or pungent) made with gelatin and used as a dessert or salad base or a coating for foods

Ask my vegetarian friend about it... He say jelly can be consume by them. It is gelatin that can't be taken...
