I’m 52. And in my entire adult life I’ve never made Jello. How about you?
Like a year ago
I don’t even know what that is.
I’m about middle age and don’t believe I have ever made it, even as a child. I have had it, and would consider eating more if it wasn’t available in such atrocious colors with false flavorings.
It is currently 85*F in my house and something like jello sounds nice right now as I contemplate what I will cook for dinner haha.
Jello as dessert? When I was 15 for a school project. Jello as a shot? Probably annually
I was wondering why I can remember buying jello, but not consuming it.
I make dog treats out of jello by adding chicken stock regularly. The stock comes from boiling rotisserie chicken leftovers. It costs about a dollar per batch. My dogs love it and it’s good for them
I dig your jam
That’s an amazing idea that I’m going to steal
Help yourself, your pets will love you for it. A couple of tips if you don’t mind: I boil the rotisserie chicken carcass (or any kind of meat and bones) for 10 hours on very low heat and covered. It takes that long to extract nutrients. You can use canned stuff but it’s full of salt. I pour the whole thing into a pie tin (with gelatin) and sprinkle molasses yeast flakes on top. You can find this at health food stores. It’s got lots of nutritional benefits and if your pet ever suffers from a lack of appetite a little on top of their food may help. A little bit goes a long way. Bon appetit!
Today. I love jello + canned fruit.
Do you mixed the canned fruit into the jello so it’s suspended in there when it solidifies? My mum always made that when I was growing up. She topped it with mini marshmallows.
Yup that’s the way! Pineapple and pear is my fav. My mom always added marshmallows too, I’ll have to do that next time for nostalgia purposes lol
Giving me Rugrats flashbacks. Remember the housewarming jello molds?
Not since college
Been a long time. Once I found out it was all bones and hooves and connective tissue, that kinda took the fun out of it.
They make vegan jelly (or jello) nowadays, don’t feel like you can’t have fun any more!
Look up agar agar : it’s a gelatin substitute made from algae
I never really liked that stuff, so I believe I never actually made any jello by myself. I really don’t get why it’s popular. It looks unedible and it tastes nothing but sweet. It’s usually accompanied with pusdings or cakes which I would much rather waste some of my calorie budget on.
I’m 40, and made it for the first time a month ago. It made 4 tiny cups. I still have one cup in the fridge.
About 2 years
I make it anytime someone in the house is sick. It’s great for when you don’t really feel like eating much and you need to stay hydrated.
Can’t stand the shit lol
Fucking never, the texture grosses me out
Maybe a month or two? I have a kid who is more into pudding.I made pudding like last week.
