Totally get that. It’s so interesting hearing everyone’s experiences with Jell-O, because—perhaps due to its multitude of uses—there’s almost no neutral stance on it. It produces very visceral memories/reactions in people! Read more

What is it about Jell-O that has disappointed you? Is it the texture? If so, seafoam salad smoothes out the “bounce” a little bit (and adds some richness) with cream cheese. Read more
