jelly and ice cream = worst food combo ever.

Jello makes an adequate sugar delivery system.

Jello looks awful, is awful in concept, but tastes pretty awesome. Kinda like whiskey with Bailey's.

By itself - no thanks. With fruit and nuts suspended in it and maybe whipped cream on top - OK, still weird food, though. I've never purchased or made the stuff, but some family member always seems to have it on their holiday table.

Years ago, when I stocked shelves at the local grocery, there must have been about 6 different brands. Royal and Junket come to mind.

The worst desert is an untimely, painful death.

You hate jelly? You hate life.

Jello is a waste of perfectly good calories.

Stay away from the green and you're OK.

It's jelly you sick freaks! It's delicious, whatever colour it is!

Jello the food is overrated. But it's like a gift from god when you're in hospital, it really is. Especially if you can't have solid food.

I've actually been discussing Jello Biafra with a friend lately which is a rare occurence for me.

Okay let's try it with another one:

jello rocks when you have been restricted to a liquid diet. Cherry and or raspberry are the best flavors and if they allow you to add cool whip or ultimately real whipped cream it's absolute Godhead.

Otherwise it's a bland innocuous melt in your mouth nothing.

There is a recipe that involves lime jello that sounds really sorta digusting; but it turns out to be pretty tasty and tangy, if a bit wierd looking. You add cream cheese, sour cream the lime jell and cucumbers and voila! you have a savory old style "perfection salad". Its an old timey recipe from Betty Crocker and if any of you are inspired to try - email me and I'll forward the receipe.

I LOVE THE JELLO

No Trifle without Jelly. No credibility without Trifle.

I am pretending this thread is about me!

never try to make jello shots with whiskey and orange jello and a sprinkling of ground cloves, under the misguided impression that you're making hot toddy shots.

― lauren (laurenp), Sunday, 18 December 2005 17:28 (twenty years ago)

I like jelly (as it should be called) with custard.

Oh my god no. It's just a tempting nothingness because you have to eat the sugarless kind that tastes like plastered diarrhea.

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Sunday, 18 December 2005 17:36 (twenty years ago)

my dad eats the sugarless kind (he's diabetic). between not having any jello or having an inferior version of something that's already pretty gross to begin with, i don't know why he does as he does.

i like jello, even the sugar-free kind.

I've always wondered if vegetarians are "allowed" to eat Jell-o or do they have to look for something like a "dolphin-safe" seal?

The last time I instigated a conversation on this, a vegetarian at the wedding I was at started yelling at me. She was drunk.
