Tomato Jell-o CURSE YOU DON WILSON!

In the 1950s Jell-o came in vegetable flavors such as celery, Italian, mixed vegetable and seasoned tomato.
I recently tried making Tomato Jell-o using the recipe below.

After I tried it, the garbage disposal had a treat,


JELLO SALAD - TOMATO ASPIC
1 pkg. lemon Jello
1 c. boiling water
1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
Garnish suggestions: Black olive, sliced & sour cream
Combine all ingredients and mix until Jello is dissolved. Pour into 8 x 8 inch pan or small 3 cup Jello mold and refrigerate until firm. Cut in individual serving squares. Serve on lettuce leaf. Garnish with sliced black olives and sour cream.

from a 1953 issues of LIFE.

Jell-o used to have flavors suchs a "celery" & "mixed vegtable". Gone for 60 years or so. But even today they list over 30 flavors (including "haggis" for god's sake), but my local grocery carries maybe 4. Where do you get Jalepeno Jell-o????
