THE JELLO MUSEUM




YES! There is such a place!
Turns out JELLO was invented just a hop, skip and a Jiggle down the road from us in the cute little village of LeRoy, New York. The things you get to do when you have out of town guests!
 Jello Fun Facts!
- Pearl B Waite invented Jell-O in 1897 in Leroy, NY
- There have been 36 different Jello flavors. Some flavors which bombed in the USA were immensely popular overseas, notably coffee flavored Jello which had skyrocketing sales in Japan and was a complete flop in the US.
- Five jello flavours that flopped: celery, coffee, cola, apple and chocolate.
- The most popular jello flavors are strawberry, raspberry and cherry.
- Citizens of Utah eat more Lime Green Jello than anywhere else in North America.
- Over 1,134,239 boxes of Jell-O are sold everyday

WE (Joyce, David, Karen and Myrte) are checking out your blog and noticing your svelte figure. David and Joyce are exclaiming how nice you look. David wonders if you lost it painting the house or routing for Palin?
