50% Sugar By Weight
I bought the wrong Jello. That will teach me to go grocery shopping without my glasses.
We usually get fat free sugar free, but I somehow screwed up. MR got the box and thought, "Gee, this is unusually heavy!" Then he read it, and it was regular sugary Jello. Ooooopps.
Sure enough, it's 50% sugar by weight. Not by calories, by weight. Wow.

Am I dense, but I see "Fat Free" on Jello boxes here too and wonder when did Jello EVER contain fat? Is this just some marketing gimmick? If so, do these morons actually believe that putting "Fat Free" on a whole load of products that never contained any fat in the first place is going to make me buy them? JD ;-)
