My son Adam had oral surgery yesterday and as such requires soft foods, gelatin, pudding, scrambles eggs, applesauce etc. When my children were little I had one child that insisted on home lunches. About that time single serving Jell-O and pudding cups we on the grocery shelves. I was not going to pay $3.99 for single serving Jell-O to go in her lunch when I could make up a box of Jello-O for $0.57. So I made pudding and gelatin and poured it into my re-usable single serving plastic ware and all was good.
After all these years of putting gelatin in singles serving containers I should have known better, but I didn't and made up Adam's post surgery gelatin and pudding in large bowls. You would have thought I committed blasphemy. Everyone threw a fit when they saw what their horrible mother was attempting to do! I actually had to re-pour the hot pudding and gelatin into single serving containers to prevent mutiny. Crazy but true!

Why pay $3.99 when you can make your own single serving gelatin for $0.57? |
