"That crisp 'over the hills' feeling"??

I sorta wanna try it now. Only not with green Jello. :)

The in-can jelly is frickin' genius and I'm doing it.

Sweet ads in all senses of the word - the 'in the can' idea rocks!!

... but pineapple juice digests the protein in gelatin?

I think that's why they said to use half the water? I don't know - I thought that too.

I thought half the water was because the can was too small to hold all the jello, but you're right, making it thicker might help it hold together. Hmmm. Clearly, this needs an experiment!

Okay, that was sort of a myth, but it works here because the canning/cooking breaks down the enzyme that blocks thickening. Fresh or frozen pineapple won't work but canned will! http://scienceline.ucsb.edu/getkey.php?key=1968

Ooooh, that changes things. I'll bet I could use the canned pineapple juice then, as well. Hmmm. Cherry-pineapple flavor pineapple slices. What fun!

Thank you!

I have eaten lime jello with pineapple and can confirm this is a tasty combo!

Top ad is pretty. That's a groovy idea in the 2nd ad- I would try it if I still had young children- I know they would have thought it was amazing! I also like the taste of green jello and pineapple, but I don't make jello much anymore. Only when someone is sick...oh, and last year when prepping for my first colonoscopy!
