I have to say I love me some green bean casserole!
My family does incredibly weird things with jello too. There will be at least five different kinds of jello, some with fruit or vegetables suspended in mid air and some with layers of cool whip, cottage cheese, mayonnaise or cake. Green Jello, red Jello, yellow, orange and pink. Its freakish.
The family of one of my exes makes this orzo and cool whip stuff.
One year we were rolling sushi for the traditional TG meal (druuunk)l, and I was eating a sushi roll and noticed something orange and crunchy...resembling a Cheeto....and it was indeed a Cheeto roll.
