I used mostly white sugar with just little light brown sugar added. It's almost a cream soda color. I would like to try it with dark brown sugar. Root beer barrels are dark brown.

This is how many of these 1/2 cup containers that I was able to fill from that batch plus I had a tiny bit more. It smells like root beer. So far it tastes OK like root beer. Do you think it will make me sick? I doubt it. |

I just started eating jello again not very long ago and I have noticed my nails started growing a lot faster.

I finished eating a half cup of my root beer jello and nothing has happened yet.

Check this out. I just found it. Well, although many of the claims in this video have not been proven, jello would be a good addition to one's diet. |

Apparently it's possible to mix a teaspoon or two of gelatin into some juice and get some benefits that way. Since I've been having joint issues I think I may try this. How to Drink Gelatin to Help With Joint IssuesThere is even a method for adding it to hot drinks such as coffee. |

I was looking at it last night. It's rather expensive, but looks like good stuff. Think I'll shop around and see what else is out there.

I gave a bus driver friend of mine my second attempt recipe today and she said she is going to try and make it.  I bought some dark brown sugar today to try and make it myself. If you put whip cream on it shouldn't then taste like a root beer float? |
