Comes in powder form in little packets to which you add hot water, stir until disolved, then add cold water and put into the fridge. In a few hours, if you did it all correctly, you get a wiggly, jiggly fruity dessert. Some people (like Aunt Mildred) put bits of various fruits and/or veg into it.<BR/><BR/>I am a jello purist.<BR/><BR/>As for the Scots comment - about 8 years ago a sweet young man from the islands in Scotland that I met in a chatroom and I had this long discussion wherein he was determined that what I meant was "Jelly". In order to support our arguements, I sent him a box of Jello (lime) and he sent me a package of "Jelly" (strawberry).<BR/><BR/>His was a brick of what looked like compressed gummy-bear material, which melted in hot water and to which you then added cold water and made a gelatin dessert - except it was MUCH more fruity and had more "body" to it than the lighter "Jello".<BR/><BR/>Sometime (much)later a mutual friend went to visit him and brought more lime jello as well as the recipe for Jello Shooters.Sewmousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01698392521648800227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1980919973276212167.post-73373401405900836272007-07-19T22:22:00.000+01:002007-07-19T22:22:00.000+01:00Sew - WTF is Jello?
