Yes Carole sounds as if we like the same flavors & I carry it premade every day in my lunch at work..
You call it jelly? Cool! What do you call the jelly that you spread on toast? I mean, we have jams and jellies...but, I was wondering what you call them! I love hearing how different countries refer to the same things...And, to answer your question, I like Jello ok, but, I LOVE orange jello with mandarin oranges in it, oh my gosh. :)
Oooh, I love jello! Any flavor suits me too!:)
I love peach Jello! I love the smell and the color. But I do really like any flavor. It's kind of nostalgic my Mom used to keep it on hand as snack when I was younger :D
I live in Utah, how could I not like Jell-O? lol ;)

Really though I do like it though it's not one of my favorite foods, I don't eat it often just if somebody else made some. It is especially good with whipped cream. ;)
Ick, I can't stand Jell-O!
Well some interesting replys, it appears a lot of you like it and lot of you don't, it is not something I really buy very often, but I had like this craving for it, Yes they do give it in hospitals when you are sick, especially if you had your tonsils out and on a light diet, but I never really thought of it like that, Kim I wish it were a diet food, unless you buy the weightwatcher one, it is loaded with sugar, hmm that is why it is so yummy.
kari, we call Jams without seeds in them Jelly's as well, I know it seems strange, but then Jello does to me as well,but at least when you talk about Jello everyone knows exactly what you mean right?:)
A nice little thing to do with Jelly-Jello, is to make a fruit flummery, you put the Jello not quite set in a blender with vanilla ice cream and fruit of your choice, usually fruit salad, tinned variety it really good for it, blend it up, leave it to set properly, only a few minutes and top with whipped cream and grated chocolate if you desire, this is very nice., and fattening.LOL.:)

Ah, I see...that makes sense, though. So, the brand isn't JELL-O on the box? What brand of Jelly/Jell-o do you use? I mean, it's one of those products that everyone ends up calling by the most popular brand name...like Band-Aids (instead of bandages), Kleenex (instead of tissues), JELL-O (instead of gelatin)...even though there JELL-O isn't the only brand of gelatin you can buy. :)
That sounds wonderful! So, you just put the entire concoction into the refrigerator? Do you set it and serve it individuallly, like in a dessert cup or glass? Or is it just in a big bowl that you scoop servings out of? I'd like to try and make that some day...I love stuff like that on hot days!Quote:

It makes me gag, too.
I used to like the black cherry with fruit & nuts in it in Jr. high cafetera many many mnay years ago.
kari it is up to you really, but I make it in individual dishes, like you would for a parfait, make sure the Jello is not properly set though, sort of half and half, not too runny , but not solid.
We buy Edmonds Jellies here , but the one's I got are a cheaper brand called Pam's and I found them to be nicer than the more expensive ones, at 55 cents each a cheapie dessert.
I haven't had Jell-O for a long time. Now you have done it - I will have to make some.
The blackberry and raspberry would be my top choice.
I have a recipe somewhere that calls for sour cream - you layer it - and the texture of the jello goes quite well with the sour cream.
If you want it, I can dig into my recipes for you.
Better yet - wouldn't it be lovely if I could bring it to you in person?
Gini i really appreciate the thought, but I am just not a sour cream fan,now the other sort of cream, it is hard to keep me away from it, whipped cream I love, but I try and stay away from it if I can.:)
