How Jell-O lost its spot as America’s favorite dessert

Way in the back of the grocery store, at the end of the sleepy baking aisle, sits a brand decades past its prime: Jell-O gelatin. Today, Jell-O is served to patients at hospitals. Or schoolchildren throw it around during food fights at lunch and college kids swallow it down with alcohol shots. Others associate Jell-O with the disgraced comedian Bill Cosby, who was the face of the brand for 30 years.

“Shimmering…luscious…Jell-O salads are making this a salad nation!” said another ad in The Farmer’s Wife magazine. Jell-O congealed salads, often made with fruits, vegetables, Cool whip or other foods, were used to show off at dinner parties and a form of creative expression. Jell-O released flavors such as seasoned tomato, celery, mixed vegetable and Italian salad, and Jell-O salads were a colorful way to use leftovers in side dishes.

CNN SUCKS

I make Jell-O shots every year for NYE with Andy and Anderson. 🥂

Just had it like less than a week ago lol

The day prior to my last colonoscopy! 🤣🤣

Jell-O shots are great for parties

My mom always makes it with strawberries & walnuts, I prob had it last thanksgiving.

For dessert with my dinner today. Sugar-free Jell-O doesn’t even taste like it’s sugar-free. Good for diabetics.

Not long ago when I had a colonoscopy and wasn’t allowed to eat anything else

With this, yesterdays dream.

10 c a box in the 1800's. Holy crap, it was not cheap, And what refrigeration was used. Ice Block fridge?

And now under Biden it costs $10 a box

Hospital and you're grateful.

i had the no bake cheesecake about a yr ago

Poorly written. Not everyone parties.

Good vid

You guys are still a thing?

I make a 3 layer recipe for special occasions. Just had it 2 weeks ago. Yum!

When I was a kid, every school lunch came with a cube of Jello for dessert, so I learned to hate it a long time ago. It's nothing compared to a slice of my grandmother's blueberry pie.

Eeewww… how the fuck was jell-o ever a “favorite”

I stopped eating it years ago when I found out what gelatin is made from. NoThanks
