More for personal reasons (vegetarian, though it does upset my stomach) - the prevalence of gelatin pisses me off to no end. Let me eat my yogurt in peace! Pectin does the same shit, but sometimes they throw gelatin in there for shits and giggles I guess.

Gelatin is used as a thickening and stabilizing agent. It is incredibly useful in food preparation, but the sugar free altoids were made to be purposefully vegan, so they forwent the gelatin.
