- Jell-O was a household staple in the United States throughout the 20th century. Once the star of dinner parties, Jell-O is now served as shots to college students. From 2009 to 2018, Jell-O dropped $371 million in sales. We unpack what lead to its rise and fall.

The Rise And Fall Of Jell-O
People used to eat jello as a meal?
A lot of people still do. Like in Russian cuisine it’s called Холодец
@@JD-ht7yw it's completely different thing
J D not even the same thing
Times were hard back then, they had to scrape up food from anything
@@JD-ht7yw ага да конечно
Didn't know Jell-o's career was so wobbly.
No u..
Funny
i hate that this made me laugh
Noriaki Kakyoin egg yolks are also wobbly
The pun...
This makes me want jello. When I was a kid, my mom was single and we were super poor. I remember jello was a wonderful treat that we occasionally had.
She made that Jello by draining her blood -_-
@@server1ok tf ?
Honestly I hope you’re doing great right now. I’m currently living through this same struggle and so I usually eat the jello brand as a desert-
Sames. Jello and saltine crackers was a delicacy.
Mike Cude God bless🙏🏽💛✝️
My heart sank when it was mentioned that the inventor sold the patent for 450 dollars.
$450 was worth a lot back then.
@@calebclark1821 the issue is they could've made a lot more
@rita no longer has long eyelashes Yeah, but compared to what they could've got
Thats way more than you think 😂
Plus they also dont know how to market Jell-o, so it would've not been as big as it is
Jello should advertise more to college students. They are broke but enjoy sweets and jello shots.
@Glowget no
they should hire you
@@Polyg0ne yes
@@Polyg0ne yes
Glowget just mix in beer instead of water
I need sleep but I need answers
3:20
provide me with information

Saaame
At least now we have the answers 😂
if jell-o started selling their own jell-o shots in liquor stores their sales would skyrocket
Would ruin the jello belt tho
Just mix the jello with alcoholic beverages instead of water.
Its wholesome family branding is something that it hinges on. And their largest market of consumers appreciates that aspect. Marketing things in a liquor store would not only drive away the Mormon consumers of the product, it would ruin the reputation of jell-o as an all family food.
jello hard seltzer water 😂
alexander hamilton That’s definitely not a bad idea
My dad told me that when he was a baby my grandma would feed him jello instead of breastmilk, all because the town doctor recommended it. Crazy stuff, but gotta love Jello.
Lol
is just sugar water and gelatin
omg
Probably to wean you off breast milk. Jello has no nutritional value. It's cold sugar water. :p
How is he no dead?
I mean, if I was eating Jello filled with cheese and celery, I’d be depressed too
Cruel and unusual punishment
Maybe they should take real shots.
I’ve tried it before and it was delicious surprisingly
I like jello with cheese and straw berries and pineapples
Same :(
Jello is delicious on its own don't put random crap in jello and then it's perfect. The only exception is fruit and alcohol.
Air Quotes that’s why I prefer to eat it without everything added on it because it’s gross.
But fruit is delicious.
Alcohol? I haven’t tried it yet.
Not even fruits
@Jon Jon this comment chain was fine until this
Add it with milk and it’s amazing. It’s a Mexican style type of jello
I Love Boobies! jell-o shots aha
I’m sorry but jello meals that aren’t desserts look disgusting
You have a point! I much prefer sweet jell-o.
The salad might work though
Jello mixed in with fruit is good
@@eknowsgamenews1013 That sounds like a dessert
Jello with anything besides jello (except flavoring) is gross- even like cakes
I just like the fact that my local shop sells this brand of jelly that does all these random flavours (but taste the same as the normal flavours) that no one buys and thus they go on sale for about 10p and it's great
It's the little things, huh...
Peach or pumpkin flavors!
I’ll literally cry if I sit at the dinner table and my mom pull out some kind of monster veggie jelly and cheese
It will be
An interesting
*”dinner”*
no wonder people were so depressed in the great depression
@@AraArasArah nine pfp xd
If you were in the great depression it wouldn't matter, you'd eat or be hungry.
Shredded carrots in an orange jello cooled with orange juice ice cubes before setting in the fridge was actually pretty tasty.
Fruit salads, like pears, pineapples, apples, and grapes mixed into a cherry jello made for a pretty nice snack on a hot day.
I grew up in the 80s when we didn't really think sugar itself was a danger, so if you made sugary jello with lots of fresh fruit slices in it, it was considered a "healthy" treat. But, really, we were just scarfing down 10 different kinds of sugars from the fruits and the jello!
But, yes, there are some incredibly questionable recipes out there, and I agree with you about how nasty they seem.
Don’t worry I think they’ll *bounce* back

Ah, puns
you'd see yourself out
Walter K you didn’t have to, but u did

"In response to its slipping sales, Jello hired comedian and actor Bill Cosby"
**Nervous sweating** yep. Great idea.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
yeah, Bill Cosby surrounded by kids, that aged well...
well at least it wasn't Michael Jackson surrounded by kids...
Perfect for hiding the flavor of Quaaludes!
Ask Subway how that works.
The recipes in the Jell-O cookbooks from the 1920's, and 1930's are really good. There is two different ones that use coffee, and lemon Jell-O, that you add sugar to and have set. One of the two uses cream as well. It turns into essentially a latte Jell-O dessert.
Also whipped Jell-O is very good! It is almost entirely forgotten about. Many of the recipes ask for that preparation as well. You would let the Jell-O get cold, but not set then beat it until it is fluffy. It is amazing. Some of the recipes had you layer regular with the whipped. Very good.
The Jell-O salads are also good. I have made the Imperial Jell-O salad. It is lemon Jell-O with pineapple, cucumber, and pimentos. The Manhattan Jell-O salad is also good. I do not remember the flavor of Jell-O used, but you would put green apple, walnuts, and celery into it. One of the books also had a good recipe for cranberry Jell-O. It is similar to the jellied variety of cranberry sauce you get in a can. You would boil cranberries then put them through a sieve, the sweeten with sugar and add the cranberry pulp to lemon Jell-O.
I have also made a mint Jell-O from the book. It was okay. I believe you would boil mint in the water before making the Jell-O add a little vinegar, and make Lemon Jell-O with it. It did not have as much mint flavor as I would have hoped. Theoretically though it would have paired well with lamb. I also tried the tomato aspic mould from the Jell-O book. It was okay. I would make it again though it involved if I remember right a can of tomatoes, with onions then you would boil it or something then put it through a sieve and add it to the Lemon Jell-O. Most of the recipes used Lemon Jell-O.
One of my favorite Jell-O recipes came from the 1922 issue of the Jell-O recipe book. It was called Plum Pudding Jell-O. You would add 3/4 cup of bread crumbs, 3/4 cup of chopped walnuts, 3/4 cup of prunes, and 3/4 cup of raisins, a 1/4 cup of candied citron, and you would season it with nutmeg, and cinnamon I believe, then add it all to Lemon Jell-O and let it set. It smells like Christmas, and I try to make it every year for Christmas. My family loves it. After you retrieve it from the mould you would serve it with whipped cream or any sauce that you would serve on a regular plum pudding like hard sauce. Hard sauce if I remember the measurements correctly is just equal parts butter, and sugar that has been whipped.
Overall even though they may sound unappealing to modern tastes, I recommend giving them a try. It is a mental barrier. You have to think of it like this... peanut butter can be savory or it can be sweet. So can Jell-O, and gelatin in general. You have to get rid of the notion that it is always a dessert. Once you can do that, it is possible for you to enjoy it. Quite a few of the salad type Jell-O mould recipes will have you add a little vinegar to pair back the sweetness for these types of Jell-O moulds.
If you are following an old Jell-O recipe and it does not specify the size of the box of Jell-O then use the smaller one. At the time that was the only one available that is why they did not specify back then.
I never tried tomato as pic until my 30's. There are two old-school Atlanta restaurants that still serve it. I really like it.
They should hire you as a marketing rep!
*jello parters w Bill Cosby for advertising*
Me: well that didn’t age well
Mo Ro
I was thinking the same thing 😂😂😂
Just like Jared Fogle with Subway
That's another reason why Jello has declined 😂
r/agedlikemilk
I think it really hurt them pr wise, i heard multipile ppl use the word "cosby jello" as therm for roofies
I grew up in the sixties and my mother used to mix jello with canned fruit cocktail and serve it to the kids as a snack on hot summer days. That was pretty good.
Bernard Finucane I miss fruit cocktail; I miss the good old days.
I will opine 109 fruit cocktails still exist lol. Just go get some.
A. L. Michael Thanks for that, but not here in northern Canada, as far as I can tell.
Bernard Finucane yeah, snack food for kids ☺️
I will opine 109 you can literally still get that
Jell-O is a cheap way to stay hydrated. That's why there's the jello belt in the West. If you add it to parfait is pretty good. Don't mention Bill Cosby
I thought it was due to the weather too! They don't melt and can be refreshing when chilled. They should hook up with gogurt and make a jello yogurt slurp tube, to market for children. Also, they really need to make vegetarian one using fruit pectin or something. It's really ridiculous not to. But maybe that could turn off buyers that don't know about it being boiledbone goo?
Bill Cosby is a sore spot with me.
@@dchawk81 He left a lot of other people with sore spots too
Wait isn't water like free?
😂
Didn’t know that Jello had such an interesting history. It jiggles my mind!
Jiggly ball sack
I see what you did there
🥁 "ba dum tss"
🤣👏👏👏👏
It is still used as a meal for people getting a colonoscopy they have starburst and jolly rancher flavors now.
Lol! True.
@@Zimuahaha the green and blue jolly rancher ones were the best iv had out of any other jello the other jellos are not sweet enough and dont have enough flavor. 🏴☠️🍧☠
Wait, there's Jolly Rancher and Starburst Jello? I know what I must purchase soon.
@@nicholsjoshua15 Hell yeah I used em to make vodka shots after I tried what they taste like normal it was good women love jello vodka shots I prefer to drink pure alcohol and down it with beer. Too much Jello makes ladies say Hello your a fine Fellow lol what if they made Mellow Yellow Jello while playing a chello.
I had to eat Jell-o for three days before my colonoscopy.
I will never eat it again.
The war memories..
TH-cam: You wanna know the history of Jello?
Me: Sounds useless but ok whatever
Obamasexgaming omg XDDDDDD
SO DAMN TRUE LOL!!!
Fr. I don’t even like jello, but here I am.
I love youtube for this tho
Jello should just turn itself into a marijuana edible
haha facts bro, literally just ordered a few now
Right?? Here I'm taking all these dabs when I could be eating jello 😂
Thank you!
That might cause harm to them though due to them being seen as a morally good company
im 420th like on a comment about marijuana, nice
You've got admit the words Jell-O belt without context would be hilarious.
Haha!!!
I imagine like a wearable belt of jell-o
Jell-O salad sounds absolutely disgusting who thought it was a good idea, and better yet, who has ACTUALLY BOUGHT INTO IT
Beary many people ate that shit 🤢🤢🤮
White people
Jell-O fruit salad is just Jell-O with fruit cocktail.
not allison i agree, I would come under that category if I wasn’t such a vampire that my skin turned gray and part see-through
@@RaymondHng Fruit salad sounds fine, since it's sweet. But savory, watery, perishable vegetables? Lettuce in Jell-O? Nooo
I’ll still eat jello. Idc if it’s not healthy
Thornback that’s why I don’t eat jello or meat. Both bad
Same
You can pay me a million bucks and I wont eat that garbage
123 unlike most animals, humans are designed to be carnivores but also able to eat vegetables and fruits. so it’s not bad to eat meat 🥩, it’s just vegans being obnoxious self righteous assholes.
L C yes you would lol
Jello salads are the most distuating I have ever layed eyes on.
Well, it depends. If it's meat and vegetables, than yes it's gross. If it's fruite and cool whip it's awesome.
True
Joshua umm....no lmao
@@nicholsjoshua15 how is fruit and whip salad ha wanna add some marshmallows too
Have you seen hot dog water jello cake?
It's the worst thing this planet has to offer.
Strawberry jello cake has been a classic favorite dessert in our family for generations.
I make the best
This girl sounds like tea spill
Holy shit you have a point
OmG !
I was screaming the entire video bc of it....... conspiracy???????!! (I'm jk lol Tea Spill might just be another Asian girl)
Wtf is her makeup 😱😱😱
plot twist, it's really tea spill lmaoooooo
I love eating Jello, didn't realize it's in the minority here.
Same :(
I love their pudding!
I love lime Jell-o with tuna casserole and raspberry Jell-o is a key ingredient for a salad I have at Thanksgiving.
I do. As a kid, Jello cheered me up whenever I was sick, and I still like it mixed in fruit salad with whipped cream.
I still love it.
Fthe video kinda puts it like jello has no future. But it's still a 600 million dollar market and obviously Kraft isn't going to drop that.
DJ WÁLTÓÁRAM yup
My family still makes our traditional Jell-O fruit salad for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Make two large boxes Jell-O with 3/4 cup to 1 cup less water. When it sets, whip well with a mixer. Mix in 2 large cans of well drained fruit cocktail and 2 cans (or more) mandarin oranges, chopped apples, bananas and a couple cups of whipped cream. It's the first thing to disappear, even before the pumpkin pie..
Does anyone else remember Jell-O poke cakes from the 70s and 80s? You baked a white cake, cooled it, poked holes all over with a fork, made a package of Jell-O, poured it over the cake, refrigerated it then "frosted" the cake with whipped cream. It seemed weird but was delicious. Those were my kids' favorite birthday cakes. Some of those 50s Jell-O salads, while they may not look appetizing today, were actually pretty good. I still love Jell-O on occasion.
jello cakes are still a huge thing here in the midwest
@@fursona_au_chocolat OH, that's good to hear! Those were so delicious. If my daughter ever visits I'd love to make one for her and family. Was it one large Jell-O box per cake with less water? All my recipes are in storage.
I make the poke cakes all the time my favorite!
@@charliedavis8894 1 pack jello per 1 box cake and same directions as packed but half the amount of the cold water.
@@stephiiiless Thank you very much! I couldn't remember to save my life, lol. That was the only cake my daughter wanted for her birthday until she got older.

@jenny moe WHY ARE THEY SURPRISED WHENEVER WE ARE UNSUPERVISED!
When I was living in the US for a year, sugar-free Jell-O was my single favorite item. I bought it by the bulk. I'm back in Europe now, but I won't stop till I find some.
It's the most calorie-free dessert there is. I mean my liver will probably stop working in the age of fifty, but at least I'm going to be lean af, so open casket, shirtless corpse, fnck yeah!
lincselo there has never person I want to meet more than you for some godforsaken reason
Did you just... shorten the word corpse to "corp"? I'm at a loss for words. I love it.
Hey buddy. I’m concerned you good?
What a mad lad!
Gelatin is actually really healthy!
Hey it’s great when you’re sick! My mom used to give it to us when we had the flu or just about any illness. Especially good when recovering from stomach trouble.
We didn’t eat jello when we were sick, my mom would sometimes or rarely make jello, we call it in my country jelly, we didn’t make it in colorful designs we just took a bowl and put the mixture in it, that’s it, but I still loved it
Jello helps with unsettled stomach.
Hmmm nice old remedies But all the old fashioned remedies are gone now mums give anti biotech!
@@regularman5914 I never eat jello for anything lol
I will try jt ty
I love how this video didn't touch on the fact that college students aren't slurping down *JUST* Jello....
My granddad would make me a mason jar of just plain ol' Jello as a young boy. Very fond memories of that. No whipped cream, no salads or other such garbage, just jello and some fruit.
*Pulls out phone*
"Jello?"
I dont why but this made me laugh so hard😂😂😂
Wow just had a 2005 flashback

Ollo
Jello doesn’t seem like a real word anymore.
Yes it does
@Obi-Wan Kenobi The brand name is actually spelled _Jell-O_ . It is still a protected trademark that is frequently used as a generic term.
@Obi-Wan Kenobi have you ever subscribed to Obi noscop Kenobi? He can one shot you
boi.
Frisbee used to be a brand name right? But when you talk about one, you don't say "flying disc". You say Frisbee. I think that's the same thing with Jello. Jell-O is a brand name, but in a conversation, "Do you want some Jello?" Sounds just as normal as "Do you want some jelly?"

I love Jell-O and love using gelatin for various recipes. I make a mean ambrosia orange Jello-O dessert with marshmallows, oranges, pineapple, coconut and whipped cream. It's ALWAYS the first to disappear at potlucks and family gatherings.
I thought that was what it was called but I wasn’t sure. Now, are you from the south?
My mom used to make that too it was delicious
“Is this the end?”
Had nearly $700 million in sales last n a year
That's gross income. Didn't say it was the profit
Tae Her True but jello is super cheap to produce. Also I'm willing to bet that $700 million is their profit, since jello is still a household food item that every knows of.
Not in my household. I haven't seen jello in decades. Only time I see it is in a Chinese restaurant or if someone's parents bring it to a cookout.
The fall? 😂 "laughing in Latin American" We eat gelatin like it's a holy product
Yup
Fresas con crema with Jell-O is life
Well it's not exactly jello, where I'm from they only sell different brands of gelatine.
Also la gelatina con leche condensada es buenísima.

Jello Briafra is a punk rock recording artist. He also ran for mayor of San Francisco and that was his ad campaign catchphrase. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jello_Biafra
Most times when given the option between jell-o and cake, I pick jell-o. It's refreshing, it's yummy, boring to make and takes a lot of space in the fridge.
Love jell-o with a passion... but hate having too much there in the fridge lol
This made me want to buy jello
Same
Saaame
Same. The craving just hit with full force
I remember having all those jello salads for dinner or at church. And I had a great aunt who served tomato aspic (essentially tomato jello) and I had to eat it. 🤢
My husband still has nightmares about tomato aspic.
Tomato jello tastes as disgusting as it sounds
Oh God I was thinking of the tomato aspic I was forced to eat as a kid while watching this vid & thought I was alone in that horror but read your comment & I thought hallelujah I wasn’t the only one w/ this yuck food memory! I am a Jell-O /generic gelatin lover- it reminds me of my grandma and I just don’t understand why they said it’s the “fall of Jell-O” I mean gelatin in general- it’s so delicious, exceptions for vegans or people not tolerant due to their religion. ♾☮️
Don’t get me wrong, i love a good tomato slice or tomato food, but nO NOT ASPIC
I miss those days 🤣
1:09 she’s really fingering that jello
i-
n o
Yeah. Poor Jello is no longer a virgin
Cosby would be proud
No no, he has a point
kinda hot
In Poland we have 2 types of Jell-o, both in powder form. One is sweet, basically the american jell-o but the other is without sweeteners and flavours and is used to thicken "zimne nóżki" or "cold feet" - it's made of broth from pig's feet, add meat and some veggies and vinegar/lemon juice and it's delicious.
4:13 why show a British supermarket??? you know Jello-O has never been sold in the UK, right?
Larry Bundy Jr why does
We call it jelly in the uk
Laughs in British we also call it jelly in Australia. Americans call some jams “jelly” like pb&j sandwiches. Some parts of American English is so quirky
@@Mayo_Jaabo_Hosko Australia's accent and some words are like a mix of british and american
Mayo Hosko for commenting on JAABO channels we call it jelly in general because we don’t specify whether its from Juice or Fruit based,

I guess Bill Cosby has that effect on you.
@T R He was prominently shown at 4:15 in the video as the longest-running celebrity endorsement.
I love that jello experts are a thing. Without them this hard hitting journalism would not have been possible.
Growing up in the 90's in South Africa, we would have it as dessert with some custard on Sunday afternoons after church.
They need to make Jell-o more millennial. A lot of recipes need gelatine, and they're usually desserts that don't require much effort to make. Jell-o alone won't be seen as appetizing if your aim is to market it and make big sales. I think it is right for them to go back to their roots and advertise the product in the form of eye-catching visuals with at home recipes any person in their 20-somethings can make.
Danielle A Agar based gelatine, millennia and vegan friendly
People in their early 20s are not millennials though
ok boomer nah. Millennials ended in 95. 96 onwards is gen Z. I’m 20 and I’m gen Z.
ok boomer they’re also 30
No please no,

But if you're watching the British one it's "a jelly"
Why is it that that whenever Salt Lake city is brang up in a discussion, it's always something weird like this and then mention Mormonism.
Cause jello and mormons go hand in hand.
Salt Lake City is the world headquarters of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The streets are numbered by the amount of blocks they are away from the Temple. Since the teachings prohibit Mormons from consuming alcohol and caffeine, anything that is addicting. Jell-O is one of their acceptable desserts.
@@RaymondHng their black market must be something
@Villager Human Rights Council I said "...prohibit Mormons from consuming alcohol and caffeine, anything that is addicting."
Mentioning Salt Lake City and not mentioning Mormonism would be like mentioning the Vatican without mentioning Catholicism. I never met someone from Utah who wasn't Mormon, Utah is full of them.
I didn't know I've been living in the Jell-O belt my entire life, but that explains why every large get together had something Jell-O related. In case you're wondering, that's becoming less prevalent.
Jello should create a flavor-free, coloring-free and sugar-free salty offspring
Semen flavored ?
@@steviemercado2 hehe, its clear, salty, and sugar free
Stevie Mercado there isn’t really a specific flavor for semen, it depends on what the man has eaten recently.
They could add some bullion and sell it as a gravy base.
You should look into russian dish call kholodiets its clear jello with meat in it and vegetables but even in russian and nearby countries its a mixed bag its hate jt or love it food
In Mexico it’s still a very popular treat
Abraham Hernandez it is not talking about jelly in general, but about the company jell-o, obviously there’s still companies selling jelly but not jell-o if you know what I mean
Andrea i know what you mean. In my opinion the video makes reference of jell-o as a company but also it’s very clear from that same video that jelly (despite whoever makes it) has downsized its popularity from being the star of the show in the 50’s to being consider a cheap thing served in hospitals and schools. And yes, there are many brands of instant jelly in Mexico besides jell-o, and all of them (including jell-o) are still very popular in Mexico. Not as a main dish though but definitely very popular as a quick easy-to-make dessert
No it isn't
Yes it is
I love making gelatina mosaico for the holidays.
I was so confused until i realized i live in the jello belt 👀
My dad always says whenever he and my grandparents went to parties in the '60's my grandmother always made a red Jell-O mold "cake" with strawberries and pineapple in it. He said it was always a hit!

Brenna Pelletier yeah I was surprised that nobody said anything about the all doe
Uh I think it's her accent
DeadlyDeadlyBeees oh ok
@@DeadlyDeadlyBeees 🙄 the things internet strangers know!
As Asian, I just found out jell-o during my college years and the taste was too heavy for dessert. Konjac, agar, and grass jelly are much better for dessert for their tastelessness, lightness, and fibers --- very versatile.
don't forget AIYU jelly
What’s grass jelly? Sounds..grassy
@@online2000. it's jelly made from grass
>tastelessness 😬
@@TheVeryAngryShrimp ik it's meant to be eaten with other foods
I LOVE JELLO cant believe it's on the decline! I made a rainbow jello dessert for a xmas party this year and everybody went nuts for it. All the boomers kept gushing about how they hadn't had it since they were kids, and all the little kids thought it was magical.
I suggest a Rise and fall of Barbie video!
My mom would always make it when I was sick kept me hydrated
So does having a bottle of water
Me - “One more video before going to sleep...What to watch?...”
TH-cam - “How about the rise and fall of Jell-O?”
Me - “...never thought about Jell-O before but ok”
You forgot to mention that one of the reasons it was so popular from the 1930s through 50s was in order to get it to set usually meant that you had a refrigerator. Which was a status symbol when not everyone did.
Americans used to freak me out with peanut butter and jelly cause I didn't realise that jelly meant jam in simplified English lol
To be fair for most Americans jam and jelly are two separate things. Jam is made from basically the whole fruit with pulp and such while jelly is made strictly of fruit juice. Preserves is jam made from citrus fruit.
Growing up as a kid in Asia, I can say that lychee jelly is so much more palatable. It may not be sugar-free, but it's got less mysterious chemicals in it, plus it's a bit firmer and more fun to bite on.
Jello should make tapioca, then align with trend drinks like Boba Tea. Flavored boba made from Jell-O Company products. ;) Donezo
Perfect!
I’m shocked they didn’t add the clip of Dwight’s stapler in jello..
Not everyone watches _The Office_ .
@@RaymondHng But it's still an iconic moment in popular culture. I've never watched The Office and I know exactly what this scene is.
@@jennifercavenee7572 It may be an iconic moment, but _The Office_ pranks (especially the box where the gelatin dessert came from is never shown) are not relevant to the rise and fall of the brand Jell-O. Bringing up Dwight's stapler would be going off on a tangent.
1:17 poor Alvin his never gonna see what happens in the 2000 s
This has suddenly given me the greatest craving for some fresh JELL-O the world has ever known.
As a kid jello was so good but now it just doesn’t taste the sum Just like sunny D and macaroni
Mac still taste the same but the other two really don't. Just like how I need four bowls of cereal to actually feel kinda full
Dadecounty_ Ago probably because as we grow older, our taste buds aren’t the same as when we were kids
why did you put that description into my head? I will never look at jello the same way lol
And cup-o-noodles.
2:25 "Family Friendly settings"
This looks more like a cover of a horror movie
I remember my childhood with jell-o. The brand name has sentimental value to a lot of people and that is worth a lot.
There is actually nothing I don't like about jello, I just think of it as a dessert and I don't do dessert often. Still actually a sound product.
Edit: fixed evil autocorrect
*dessert
dam my family is a Mormon and we have this stuff twice a week
You live in Utah too don’t you?
i mean when you can't have any fun stuff jelly it is
I feel like us Jell-o lovers are in the minority. I love a cup of cold Jell-o as dessert, especially at the Chinese buffets
Same
A cup of jell-o with some fruit in it would be so good after eating such savoury meals. So refreshing
I thought they're konjac, not jell-o?
I don’t know why but Chinese buffet jello squares hit different lol
Jesus christ, these family dinner jello ads seem like a dystopian nightmare lmao
I feel like it's one of those desserts that's not bad, but always gets overlooked. If they ever threaten to discontinue it, people will hoard it like they did with Twinkies a few years ago. Another snack that gets overlooked are those plain fruit flavored Popsicles.
Letting Bill Cosby host a commercial
Then:This is a great idea
Now:So you have chosen death
Wait Alvin and the chipmunks were in the 1950s 🙆🏽♂️
No way 👁➖👁
😯😮
Allanzo yes. The chipmunks debuted in 1958
In Venezuela it is a tradition to eat jello with cake at birthday parties. It sounds weird but it is the social convention. Not having jello at a bbd party is really weird, so the product has remain relevant over the years
yeah latin americans and mormons are jelly lovers for sure
Interesting fact - When Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette made their ill fated ride out of France with Count Von Fersen, Marie Antoinette was given a specially made aspic so as to help with food storage/safety during the trip.
Anna !f It’s basically Meat Jelly.
I always wondered who took the time and effort to cube Jell-O you used to see served in hospital cafeterias. If I remember correctly, Jell-O is empty calories; i.e., absolutely no nutritional value. Still, my mom used to make a Jell-O salad at Thanksgiving with shredded vegetables that I haven’t eaten in over twenty years and miss very much...
Our holidays are NOT complete without a standard 60s recipe: green Jello mixed with cream cheese, with crushed pineapple and canned cubed pears in it. Seriously people freak out if it's not on the table at TG, LOL. I have a friend whose family events aren't the same without a similar Dream-Whip product! :-)
I've heard jello is healthy for your skin and joints.
grod805 that’d be the collagen from the animal products they use to make jello
I thought jello is powdered agar (seaweed). Yall never tasted a window cathedral jello before.
Jello is collagen. Its good for hair nail skin
JELLO SHOTS!!!!
Reminds me of my turtle Frank
Those pesky college students
I prefer my own gelatine made from fruit juice and gelatine powder or sheets. Tastes better to because you control the sugar and no artificial flavours.
If I was eating Jell-O as a meal, I'd be depressed too.
