(So, 22 years, for like three holidays/year. That means... at least 66 jello salads O.o ) I'm sure there was a recipe at one point in time, though!

I definitely remember this being a staple at summer gatherings on the Cape. It will always be an iconic recipe from Grandma B's cache.Momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278385202778793465.post-33270441657344600482016-04-07T17:43:50.933-07:002016-04-07T17:43:50.933-07:00Oh man, really??

The recipe we have doesn't cite a particular cookbook or anything, and I'd love to know where it's from. That's so cool, this seriously made my day to hear, haha. :DGwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08239226134505976077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278385202778793465.post-80989896832907564152016-04-05T18:48:03.916-07:002016-04-05T18:48:03.916-07:00Oh my gosh!

She makes it in a big casserole dish, so it doesn't have that slightly-creepy jello mold charm, but my family is super into "green stuff salad." I've never eaten it, tragically, because I'm a vegetarian now and was picky about my jello as a kid.Wrennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278385202778793465.post-88915962298340490242016-04-05T15:47:42.429-07:002016-04-05T15:47:42.429-07:00Well, if you do try one, I'd obviously recomme...Well, if you do try one, I'd obviously recommend this one, ahaha.

I don't think I've ever seen a non-dessert jello IRL, so I'm a little fascinated by these (and both tempted and afraid to try one).<br /><br />Interesting to hear some personal history behind them as well!jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278385202778793465.post-69165994779599045552016-04-04T17:10:16.088-07:002016-04-04T17:10:16.088-07:00Oh cool!

Now you've made me maybe wanna give it a go, darn it!<br /><br />When I hear about food from this era, I can't help but think about <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Gallery-Regrettable-Food-James-Lileks/dp/0609607820" rel="nofollow">this hilarious book</a> which also has <a href="http://www.lileks.com/institute/gallery/" rel="nofollow">a hilarious website</a>. <br /><br />Once again, your posts are so charming and inviting.
