...My friend Francesca sent me the following email:<br /><br />Well, that's a food that's in a funny place in my life...<br /><br />I sortta like it when I have it but the only time I have it is when I'm on a 24-hour "clear liquid only" diet for some medical test, so it's sort of become a symbol of that for me. (like gator and power ade) <br /><br />I had some apricot jello last week and it was good...cherry has always been my favorite, hate black cherry though. <br /><br />In the school cafeteria, we used to have lime jello with carrots in it...yuck. Pineapple in lime or cherry is OK but fruit cocktail should be banned from existance in any situation.<br /><br />I HATE "fluffy" salads with jello and Cool Whip as the binding agent...NO! Heidi's mom made them alot and so Heidi makes them some. I just pass them along at the table. <br /><br />Jello should NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER be poured in liquid form into holes in the top of a cake and called dessert and topped with anything. Just don't soggy-up a cake with that. ICKY!<br /><br />And who thought up finger jello--consisting of some rubber-like substance that we feed to children?<br /><br />Well, from this, one would assume there are NO boxes of jello in MY pantry and one would be correct...until I have some miserable medical prep I have to do again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2576857547210365977.post-52133647913797723452010-01-28T23:30:11.166-06:002010-01-28T23:30:11.166-06:00For some reason, my mom's comment, above, didn...For some reason, my mom's comment, above, didn't take when I hit "accept". So I just cut and paste. <br /><br />Yeah, green jello ALWAYS had diced pears. Red jello could have fruit cocktail or sliced bananas. I don't like pineapple so I disliked having that in jello. Now I have to find that book, "Lutheran Church Basement Women". There are lots of comments about the "proper" rules for serving jello.Debhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00565744653157258683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2576857547210365977.post-20921398028330923992010-01-28T23:27:53.590-06:002010-01-28T23:27:53.590-06:00remember when you go to the store for groceries, b...remember when you go to the store for groceries, buy a cheap as possible beef roast and cut it into stew meat yourself. waaaay cheaper than already cut. how about cherry jello,cinnamon candy,celery,apple,nuts. or tapioca pud,orange jello,orange juice,mandarin oranges,cool whip. or raspberry jello,cranberry sauce,crushed pineapple,orange juice,lemon juice,nuts. green jello always gets pears. must be one of those Lutheran rules. love momDebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00565744653157258683noreply@blogger.com
