Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased 1 container of this gelatin because of the collagen and protein content. It thickens up when you mix in cold drinks, but I did not mind that. I simply ate with a spoon. My issue with this product is that it is sourced from Brazil. I am Brazilian (but have been living in the USA for the past 10 years, visiting Brazil 2-4x/year) and am very aware of how cattle is raised in Brazil. The usage of pesticides is HEAVY in the country. This is "pasture raised", but not organic and not "100% grass fed", so it can be very much grain finished as it is done with pastured cattle in Brazil. Also, Brazil uses ractopamine. I did not see anything about testing for ractopamine anywhere on Vital Proteins website. Brazil had a bunch of meat returned from Russia not too long ago because it was tested and found ractopmine. I have tried other gelatin/collagen too and, for now, I am not satisfied with any product available on the market and am just back to making my own bone stock from locally raised organic and 100% grass fed cattle.
