Herbs, also known as Amorphophallus konjac, are mainly distributed in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Shaanxi and other places in China, while konjac flour is a powder product extracted through deep processing. The main component of konjac flour is glucomannan, which is a safe food ingredient approved for use in China. At present, gelatin is not used in the domestic jelly industry, which can be seen from the product ingredient list of jelly packaging. Moreover, the proportion of carrageenan, konjac powder and other rubber powders in jelly is generally about 1%, accounting for about 5% of the total cost.
