I miss Jello… I don’t know what it is about the gelatin0-filled product, but I just miss having a little sweet gel snacks on occasion. Finding gelatin-free products has always been a challenge, but there are a few alternatives out there, but nothing that really “works”, if you know what I mean.
Until now! I just found my favorite Trader Joe’s is now selling Gel Cups made with carrageenan, a gelatinous algea extract. I picked up the Peach Mango flavor. They actually taste pretty good. They’re a bit puckery sweet, but they still make a pretty decent snack! I think they also have a Strawberry flavor. That’s next on my list. You should try it.

randomly found your post as i was looking up what the ‘gel’ actually was. Hubby tasted in the store and we got bing cherry. I gotta say ~ its YUMMY!
Jenn – Isn’t it great? I was thrilled to have ‘gel’ options that are gelatin free!
its not sweet like I expected.
Jess – They are a little funky, but for a vegetarian alternative, I didn’t think they were too bad.
