Uh, I'm gonna say hell no to the tuna-egg combo. Bleh!! I do have a friend from Iowa who makes an orange fluffy jello salad that is amazing!!! It's like a 50/50 bar.

Last night we had strawberry Jell-o with grapes and pineapple inside, and a layer of whipped cream on top. As the salad, doncha know.

I love y'all - but the things you do to jelly (that's what we call it over here!) are just wrong! Wrong, wrong, wrong!

That thing in the photo is an abomination. However, for T-day we have "cherry" Jell-O with minced cranberries and walnuts and it's a nice little dish. I've modified the dish by replacing Jell-O with Knox gelatine flavored with cranberry juice.

My parents have a Jell-o recipe book from the 70s. Remember all the bad things from the 70s?

abominations all.

I suppose that's one advantage to not having extended family around & my parents not really doing much for Thanksgiving. I don't ever remember jello "salad" on our table...but the jello & pudding "parfait"? Loved those, & we always got to help make em, too.

I have never in my life heard of such a thing.

Be classy and call it aspic. And it's gross.
