My Webster's dictionary tells me gelatin is "a glutinous material
obtained from animal tissues by bioling, esp: a colloidal protein used
as a food, in photography, and in medicine. 2 a: any of various
substances (as agar) resembling gelatin.

If this is an issue for you, maybe some of those "any of various
substances" might be used.
