My abandoned Jell-o Project left a pantry full of Jell-o boxes as a sad reminder of my Jell-o failures. I'd pushed the many boxes to the back of the shelf to try and forget, but I knew they were there. Mocking me, calling, "nevermore" when I wondered if I'd ever make Jell-o again.Today I found this recipe on Our Best Bites and knew the Jell-o Project had been reborn. It is, after all, the holiday season, Jell-o's annual coming-out: a time when Jell-o puts on its fanciest dress and presents itself to the world for wooing. Sigh.
Sorry. I've been reading too much Victorian fiction as of late.
The real story is I thought this recipe was the perfect way to use up some of the Jell-o that's taking up valuable pantry space in a non-Jell-o way. Plus, fruity popcorn just sounded like a fun treat. The kids would have to be certifiable not to like it.
Isaac gave me a "thumb sideways" which means he kind of likes it and kind of doesn't like it.
Jonah liked it, but said it was pretty sticky. He was the one, by the way, to choose the berry blue flavor.
Ethan kind of liked it and drank about a liter of water after having his sample size.
I sent a bag to the neighbors to get a second opinion.
I thought it was delicious.

I was thinking the other day how I missed reading about your jello escapades. I'm glad to see you're back at it. :D
I can't believe it, but that blue popcorn looks pretty good. Good on you! :)
