store bought sausage. what casings?

Question. Store bought Italian sausage links. What casing is used? They don't look like natural and are extremely clear.

i agree with stayhot,most stores use hog casing, if they are of good quality they will almost look clear.

Hog! At least in my area.

ok so back at the supermarket tonight and I took an extra close look and I could see the tell tail signs of hog casings.  But these casings are so much clearer and thinner looking than any hog casings I have bought.  Can someone recommend a supplier with high quality hog casings?
