Petition for a Tree Substitute –
OK, please stop calling the hide-glue manufacturers and demanding cruelty-free hide glue. The post on liposuction glue was a joke.
I have received a couple of angry e-mails from industry representatives who are trying to set me straight about my misinformation on how liposuction from cows could make hide glue. Apparently I didn’t do any research on fats….
I love hide glue. If you want cruelty-free glue, use yellow glue, which kills only baby vinyls and fetal acetates.
