It depends on how much you buy a bag of donkey-hide gelatin dates. A bag worth five or six yuan will definitely not even touch the edge of the donkey-hide gelatin. Don’t buy it. A bag worth more than ten yuan will cost you at most. I put some donkey-hide gelatin to make a medicinal introduction, because Dong'e donkey-hide gelatin costs more than 300 pounds per pound. If I put too much, I can't recoup the cost, so donkey-hide gelatin and jujube basically just add sugar and honey, which is not bad. If you find it in the ingredient list If you don’t have acesulfame potassium, cyclamate, aspartame, etc., then just don’t buy them. They are all food additives and are not allowed to be added abroad because of research on the risk of cancer, so you need to read the ingredients carefully. On the surface, donkey-hide gelatin turns brownish-red after being dissolved. It cannot be seen when mixed with honey and water. If the price of candied dates is cheap, I believe it is acesulfame potassium, cyclamate, and aspartame. If the price is expensive, it may be returned. You put some sugar, honey, etc., because the sweetness of acesulfame potassium, cyclamate, and aspartame is more than 400 times that of sucrose, so a little bit will make them very sweet, so you want to distinguish them by their appearance? It's impossible. It's best to distinguish it from the ingredient list. If you want to eat donkey-hide gelatin and dates, you might as well make it at home. Just stew the donkey-hide gelatin powder and dates, add some honey, and cook it as you go. It's so good. You don't have to eat it. Manufacturers add preservatives for long-term preservation of food hahaha
