Yuck, I don't think I would enjoy green jello with fruit cocktail in it. I remember we used to have something like that at my grandma's house when I was little.

I have never been a fan of jello with fruit cocktail but I know it was a staple.

My birth in the 70's didn't incur any of what's described here. 1973 to be exact. It certainly sounds as if there was some enjoyment by reading the above discussion. My husband on paper wouldn't know either because of being born in the 70's as well.

Can't imagine what green jello with fruit cocktail would taste like. Those days must be very memorable for you!
