And the last impression of a meal depends largely upon the dessert. That's why it's such a good idea to serve Jello and be sure of a happy ending. Jell-O is lovely to look at for one thing.

It's bright glowing color is wonderfully appealing. But that's only a first impression. Your final impression of Jell-O comes after you've tasted it. And from then on, you'll never forget it's rich, delicious flavor. The flavor of fresh ripe fruit skillfully blended.
