Jell-O

The iconic snack that reminds us of our childhood, cafeteria food, and molded desserts our grandmothers served on holidays is losing its jiggle and slipping on sales. The Jell-O cup has been a staple of many diet plans for people trying to lose weight, but younger consumers don’t consider it healthy because it has chemicals and artificial sweeteners, making it high in sugar but low in fiber and protein. Instead of buying Jell-O from supermarkets, millennials would opt to make their own gelatin snack with fresh fruit juice and powdered gelatin. Jell-O’s owner, Kraft Heinz, is trying to be creative to increase sales. The company recently came up with edible slime—a pink, strawberry-flavored Unicorn Slime and a green, lime-flavored Monster Slime—to win over kids. However, unless Jell-O quickly responds to health and wellness trends, the jiggly, fruity treat might disappear forever.
