Green Jell-O and Utah

Salt Lake City is America’s Jell-O-eating capital. Every man, woman and child in Salt Lake City buys two boxes of the stuff annually, or twice the national average, says Mary Jane Kinkade of Jell-O brand gelatin-maker Kraft Foods. Utah residents also eat twice as much lime Jell-O as anyone else on the planet.

Due to this I thought I would post a recipe using green Jell-O just to give you the flavor of Utah! Once you try it I am sure you will be so impressed you will want a vacation in Utah – give us a call  we have the perfect accommodations for you and your family…
