Kool Aid anyone?
#12
Can't stand the stuff any more. Back in college, I was totally broke (had about a dollar to my name) for a week until my paycheck came in. Only stuff in the cupboard was cherry Jello, cherry koolaide and popcorn. So that's what I ate for a week.

we always had kool-aid stands when we where kids. lime was my favorite.
my girls used it to dye their hair with it in the 80's.
kids don't seem to like it as much as we did, they know it isn't healthy.

We grew up drinking that stuff. My girls did too and I used only about 1/2 the sugar in the unsweetened packs. People would wrinkle their noses when I would say that, but they couldn't tell it didn't have the sugar in it that they put in it. Gotta love the stuff!
I still keep a few packs around just for something different.

I make it without sugar and everyone can sweeten a glass how they want. I use Truvia in mine. My grandmother use to sprinkle orange flavored in whipping cream to put on top of her fruit salad. I don't think it's unhealthy at all as far as a drink treat.

Kool Aide was developed in Hastings Nebraska. The museum there has an exhibit and every year they have Kool Aide Day with a parade and special event at the museum. We drank a lot of Kool Aide as kids on the farm and my kids love to make it too.
