Though I wasn't allowed much junk food as a kid, I still managed to get my hands on someone's Jell-O pudding snack, which is what today's recipe is fashioned after. I've only had the gelatin for a week or so, but it has worked great in my recipes, particularly this one. That's pretty amazing, and made me question the protein powder I'd been using for over a year, as it didn't seem to be having any effect. I'll tell you quickly, I also purchased their collagen, and I noticed within DAYS that my nails were growing faster. ![]() What sold me on the company (which I have NO affiliation with) is their attention to making clean products.
