Green Jello just isn't quite right unless you stir in walnut chunks, apple bits, carrot shreds, cranberries, and maybe a little spinach...

LiK has a "family recipe" that everyone calls "the green stuff." When the elders of the family began to pass on, there was "great panic" throughout the entire remaining generations of the family that "the GREEN STUFF RECIPE MUST BE FOUND!!!!. It appeared that no surviving person had the recipe, or remembered how it was "brewed."

The recipe was recovered (and was called "green stuff" in her mother's old diary), and copies were distributed to all the surviving descendants of the curse. For a while "green stuff" appeared at every "meeting of the accursed." So far as I observed no one every ate it, although a few of the younger kids suggested it might be "ammunition for a food fight;" but it was ceremonially exhibited and "homages to the green stuff" were duly rendered.

More recently, it has (thankfully) been relegated to complaints at every get-to that "nobody brought the green stuff," and hopefully within another generation or two it will be just a "dim memory" of an ancient family curse.

Green Jello is definitely one of the ingredients. I REFUSE even to attempt to identify what else was in it.

Be warned that I also have no knowledge of what was done with all of it that remained after the earlier meetings, or where it might be lurking to reappear as a curse on some unsuspecting others, or on future generations of her family.

The good thing about jello is that it's a dessert. Eat everything else heartily. Then say, "I never have enough room for jello."

During shopping, my mom and her friwnds used to take me to a department store resaurant when I was a young boy. I recall the desert of "mock strawberry shortcake" with white graham cracker crumbs,strawberry jello and a foamy mock whipped cream on top. It may have tasted ok then, butI would likely find. It yucky now.

Don't Fear the Jello


Thanksgiving has come
Here, but soon it's gone
Seasons don't fear the jello
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
(We can be like they are)

Come on baby
(Don't fear the jello)
Baby take my hand
(Don't fear the jello)
We'll be able to fly
(Don't fear the jello)
Baby I'm your man

La, la la, la la
La, la la, la la

Halloween is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity
(Eating their lemon jello)

40,000 men and women every day
(Like Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women every day
(Redefine good dessert)
Another 40,000 coming every day
(We can eat what they are)

Come on baby
(Don't fear the jello)
Baby take my hand
(Don't fear the jello)
We'll be able to fly
(Don't fear the jello)
Baby I'm your man

La, la la, la la
La, la la, la la

Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone

Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't eat on
Then the fridge door opened and jello appeared
They dished it out and it disappeared
Their buttons flew and bellies appeared
(Saying, "Please me out now")

Come on baby
(And she had no room)
And she ate dessert
(Then they started to sigh)
They looked downward and said goodbye
(She had become like they are)
At their receding waistlines
(She had become like they are)

Come on baby
(Don't fear the jello)

Like olddude now, I used to fear Jello. When I was about 9 years old my dad told me whence gelatin. Until my late teens I never again ate it. But I love Jello now--its easy to gum.

Is it cherry flavoured? Put me down on the list of people willing to eat extra to save you from it, Dan.

Jell-O? Pretty hard to fuck up Jell-O. I hate it when they fuck up the turkey... the spuds... the carrots... the...

I can pass on the Jell-O but I gotta take some of the rest of it. It's only polite.
