Title: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: colbtrist on April 24, 2015, 07:02:07 am
I just got a feeling for wanting jello, but I don't even know if they sell it anymore. I never hear of anyone making it.

Yes they still make it.  I don't make it alot, but once in awhile I will make a jello mold, especially in the summer months.

Yes they certainly do make Jello and I have several boxes of it in my pantry right now.  I haven't made it for quite awhile so now that I have been reminded I believe I will make some today or tomorrow.

Ill make it every now and then. When I get work done at the dentist and can only eat soft foods jello is one of my go to foods.

I made some a couple of weeks ago and no one ate it but me, so I won't be making it any more.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: vickysue on April 24, 2015, 02:10:07 pm
Once in a while I will make it. It is really good when you cannot have any solids to eat, but I like fruit in it in the summer, Hubby really likes it. So yes I make it sometimes.

Post by: luvh8tragedy87 on April 24, 2015, 03:10:23 pm
Once in a while the mood for jello strikes. The last time I had it though was when I had my wisdom teeth removed a year and a half ago. We still have some in the cupboard, maybe I'll make some later.

My sister has a recipe for jello made with cool whip, which is really good.  It is like eating a mousse.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: camellia0 on April 24, 2015, 05:25:56 pm
I don't make jello anymore. Maybe if there's a cookout, I'll bring it.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: tuyetmai on April 24, 2015, 06:55:42 pm
We did..  We usually don't like to buy jellos, so we make our own.  We can put what ever flavor in it.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: 12amos on April 24, 2015, 09:34:19 pm
Yes I still make Jello.  I love using it to make gelatin based salads. There are numerous Jello flavors to choose from.   :)
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: marciaenglish on April 24, 2015, 11:34:46 pm
I find it so cheap and easy to buy it ready made!  I like the jello cups with fruit in them.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: plennis on April 24, 2015, 11:37:59 pm
Yes, we have it a couple of times a week.  It is inexpensive, easy to make and we like.  I also have noticed at a couple of different buffets we went to, they always have jello.   So somebody else likes it to!
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: dreamyxo on April 24, 2015, 11:44:25 pm
They sure do still sell it.  Made some the other week and bought some more last week.  Just today I saw a recipe for a cake called cherry dream cake and it uses jello.  I plan to make it.

Post by: ShadowWolf16 on April 27, 2015, 04:27:24 am
Yes, I still make jello every now and then. Although, the last time I had it by itself was when I had my wisdom teeth removed. Most of the time, I use jello to make various gelatin salads.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: dwggs on April 27, 2015, 05:18:47 am
Yup ... I still make jello .. I make it in small containers with lids so I can take it to work with me as a snack.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?

I have always despised jello for some unknown reason.  My mother still uses it to make dessert salads.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?

My girlfriend still makes jello. Only the box one. Sugar free, I am diabetic. But I sometimes but the already made one.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: patti4me on April 28, 2015, 07:54:11 am
Yes, I still use jello; one of my grandkids loves jello!  When she's coming to spend the night or just for the day I usually make jello for her.  I have a couple of really good recipes using jello that I make for special occasions.

I haven't had jello in a long time.  I would like to eat some now that I read about jello.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: Sendmicheck on April 29, 2015, 09:22:21 pm
     My mother still make jello once or twice a week.  As for me,  I love eating strawberry and banana jello.

Post by: davidh121 on April 29, 2015, 10:43:50 pm
I always have the boxes saved in the pantry just in case, but they're definitely still around. My family seem to only have it nowadays during larger family events. I use to make it more for my daughter when she was younger, but she has kind of outgrown the excitement surrounding jello. I still love it when I do eat it.

Not really.  Used to eat it all the time as a kid...lost the taste for it years ago though.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: myfreebees316 on April 30, 2015, 07:57:23 am
I love making it because its a good way to cool down on a hot day. A times ill let it settle in a ice tray and freeze it oh so good
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?

My mother puts black cherries and walnuts in jello. It's pretty good.

Post by: LaTashaS28 on April 30, 2015, 12:32:27 pm
Yes I still eat Jello but don't eat it as much; only when I have a taste for it. I mostly will eat it in the summer time when it is real hot outside.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?

I actually have a couple of boxes in the pantry and keep forgetting it's there. I should eventually make them.

Post by: clickers on April 30, 2015, 07:38:50 pm
When my kids were little I made a lot of jello. Nowaday,  I don't make it anymore.  It's a great snack / desert! Thanks for refreshing my memory.

Post by: bremer51 on May 03, 2015, 07:55:09 am
I don't like jello unless it has cream cheese and whipped cream in it.  I also like the jello cake where you make a white cake and poke holes in it and put the warm jello in the holes and the cake kind of soaks it up.  Its attractive and tastes good.   I will not eat plain jello.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: patapon555 on May 03, 2015, 08:15:05 am
Jello has really fell out of place for a while now. All the desserts has become much more fancy
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: 6265AT99 on May 03, 2015, 08:48:27 am
Well, rest assured, they do still sell it.  As for people making it, I think most people buy the little pre-made Jello cups and call it a day!
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: colbtrist on May 03, 2015, 12:17:39 pm
I haven't had it with fruit since I was a kid.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: autumnsparklemom on May 03, 2015, 12:36:56 pm
I do on occasion. Mainly when I or my husband is sick. My kids do not like Jello.

Nowadays, too many delicious snack, not many people look for jello, Sometimes I make jello mix with some fresh fruits, my kids love it.

I like jello sometimes.  It's not one that often comes to mind.  I haven't had Jello in a number of years.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: debidoo on May 04, 2015, 09:37:36 am
My hubby who is now deceased loved jello especially with cottage cheese and peaches.  I haven't made it since he passed but I just might make some soon.  In the summer it is refreshing.  My oldest son just mentioned jello recently in fact.  It is still sold and our grocery sells premade jello in the deli section but I never buy it like that - would rather make my own.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: alice44 on May 04, 2015, 11:36:46 am
I have just started making it within the last month.  It is refreshing with fruit.

I use jell-o all the time. I actually make jell-o shots for my friends' parties, since they are too lazy to make their own jell-o shots. :) I get paid for it! Super fun  :thumbsup:

When I was a kid Jello, not ice cream...was a staple desert in our family (I guess because it was way cheaper). Nowadays I rarely eat it. However my 15 year old niece has discovered Jello, which is now one of her favorite treats. :)

Post by: ShadeTree on May 20, 2015, 09:45:41 pm
Yes, it still very much available. It's just not nearly as popular as it once was. I haven't made any in quite some time but recently was considering making some since I found a couple boxes of gelatin in my cupboard.

I  haven't had it in ages. Now that you mention it I will go back to it. It's a simple cost effective way to have a decent desert or snack.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?

They still sell jello that you could make or the jellos that are pre made for you for ready to eat in the supermarkets.  Enjoy!

Never liked the stuff. Even as a child I only tolerated it. Just not a fan.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: linderlizzie on June 02, 2015, 09:32:48 pm
I think WAY more people make Jello shots than make regular Jello. Then they take them on float trips and get hammered.  :-X

There are some really good recipes that include Jello, but I think Jello alone is just not done all that much.  :-\ 


:fish:
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: sherryinutah on June 03, 2015, 12:40:14 am
Jello is still sold in grocery stores; however, I never make it or eat it.  Not sure jello really falls into a "food" category and I have an autoimmune disorder so my body wants real food.

Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: Sweetpea1228 on June 04, 2015, 09:57:22 am
It's still sold.  I don't make it anymore unless a recipe calls for it, which is not often.  I usually just buy the little cups of it for my kids lunches.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: lostmaeblleshire on June 05, 2015, 09:33:25 am
I used to love Jello, now I hate it. Jello shots are kind of okay, but carbonated Jello is the best -- though I can't seem to make it without the soda going flat; still figuring that one out.
Title: Re: Does anyone make Jello anymore ?
Post by: cathy37 on June 05, 2015, 02:36:20 pm
I don't make it often, but every now and then I just get the taste for Jello so I will makes some.  It is a good low calorie snack.
