I definitely relate with you I was not a Mormon but I was definitely in church and I saw all these at our church events and also at our big family gatherings it brings back so many memories thanks for your video

Thanks for the trip down memory lane Kristie! My grandma made these and "snicker salad" all the time. Basically, snicker salad is cool whip, chopped up granny smith apples and snicker bars. (always appreciate you inputting the ingredients in the drop down box). Instant thumbs up and take care!

The raspberry pretzel one is one of my favorites.😍

I grew up a Baptist and my aunt and grandmother and mom always made jello salads and my mom makes this pistachio and marshmallow salad, an I absolutely love it!! They are delicious and possibilities are endless and can use sugar free too, the pudding or jello.

I grew up.Baptist in Louisiana. We ate Jello salads ( in fact all of these). I carried those Jello salads forward and my daughter makes them for her family. My west Texas reared husband failed to enjoy them but my grandson likes them.

I loved Jello salad when I was a kid. Great job, Kristie. I would love to see more recipes from your childhood. Hugs:)

[kathrinehofton-hughes]

The strawberry raspberry one looks the best to me!

[lilykrue]

omg I bet you could so easily make these with the sugar free jellos!!

[sophiamonet]

No part of that is a salad. 😂 In England we have things called trifle, it seems more similar to that. It has fruit, jelly (jello), sponge, cream and custard.

Love you and your channel Kristie!! May we recommend some ideas: 1) Rice krispie treats in bars and just as a wonderful marshmallow and krispie concoction to eat from the bowl 2) Thai sticky rice with peanut sauce/peanut butter chicken satay etc 3) Peanut butter and marshmallow fluff cake 4) Fettucine Alfredo and spinach artichoke dip

I know it’s not the place to appropriately ask but id love your experiences in LDS and how you left (if you left). Johnny Harris made an amazing video on it and I’d love to hear your perspective on it.

As a Brit- i am baffled but also majorly entertained by the concept of ‘jello salad’

[ShayC]

I’m so glad there’s no actual veggies in this jello salad!! 🤣🥗

I always thought, from the documentaries I watched that Mormon foods were always homemade/ homegrown fresh food. Cool I learned something new 👍🏼
