There's Always Room For Jello

United States
April 23, 2024 9:41am CST
Happy Tuesday Everyone! sunshine here this morning I know I'm dating myself but do you remember the old commercial for Jello? (there's always room for Jello was the tag line). My daughter got a box of Jello in a Starburst (like the candy) flavor. I told her I would make it and she can have it for dessert tonight. I will probably taste it but I've never been a fan of Starburst candy. When it comes to Jello I would rather have plain old cherry or orange. Plop some Cool Whip on top and I'm happy. Are you a fan of Jello?

I don’t remember that tagline, nor have I ever been a fan of jello or Cool Whip. Something must be wrong with me

Something must be wrong with both of us. I never liked hello and Cool Whip.

I remember that tagline very well. I really like jello cake, but I don’t think I’d be up for Starburst jello. I’m good with Cherry as well.

I do remember that line, and Starburst jello sounds yummy. I am not a big jello fan, but I eat the sugar free version frequently because it is filling and only has about 5 calories. My mother used to make some awesome jello dishes. Have you had that jello, cream cheese, pretzel salad? That is really quite good.

@snowy22315 I am not a big fan of Jello but I do like pretzel salad. The sweet and salty thing is good.

So many old commercials that we used to watch/hear. Now many of us pay for no commercials streaming services

I've never been a huge fan of jello, I think that is due to spending too much time as a patient in hospitals over the years, and having trays with jello on it. I used to make the jello jigglers for our son for his lunches for school when he was young, he loved them. I had a hockey puck mold that I would use for him.

I tend to associate jello with illness even though I've had no hospital stays like you've had. Your hockey puck mold must have been cute and perfect for your son's school lunches.

I don't remember that one! But I do enjoy Jello. I just don't usually (ever?) make it.

I hardly ever make it . My lazy butt usually buys it already made in single serving cups.

I like jello. Give me lemon/lime, strawberry, or the blue one, raspberry.

It's called jelly here and it used to be a staple dessert when I was a kid. I don't make it now as Vince isn't supposed to have too much sugar.

I'm not a fan of Jell-O unless it's mixed with Cool whip or something. Never heard of that flavour.

We have a local brand of Jello here that I grew up with. My mom would pour the mixture into a mold and we'd wait until it no longer jiggles. I think my favorite was the mocha flavor
