  1. Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
  2. It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.

How to tag: To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz

Has anyone reading this ever tried one of these horrible jello creations? I see them posted all the time and I have a few old cookbooks that list recipes. But… they have to be absolutely vile right? Lol

My grandma used to make things like this when I was a kid. It tasted pretty much like you'd expect hot dogs in jello to taste like. Not necessarily bad, but definitely something that had no business being put together

What is the jello flavored like? Hot dog water?

Usually it's unflavored gelatin, but technically you can add whatever fat-soluble flavor you want. Chicken, lemon, paprika, squirrel, whatever!

Squirrel sounds a bit nutty to me

Dear lord lol. The closest I’ve ever seen in person is one of these made with mandarin oranges and whip cream which wasn’t too bad… can’t imagine hot dogs though!

If you can deal with the texture, they aren't terrible.

I’ve made chicken soup from bones that has an almost jello consistency when refrigerated. It’s delicious, but I never ate it cold!

Worst I’ve had was one made of hot dogs and spaghettios. My stomach turns just thinking about it.
