Soledad - my grandmother used to make a salad dressing mixing mayonaisse with pineapple (crushed with the juice) - it was soooo deliciuos on her salads (which always had apple pieces and raisins in them.) The lime jello with cottage chees and pineapple is pretty well know, her variety is probably really good! Have you every had that kind of jello dessert?

BTW, Logan, there are lots of dishes called "aspic" that are gelatin based. Not always sweet, either! You mentioned a lot of Southern dishes made this way - will you share some recipes?
