We’ve been talking about Jello quite a bit at work recently (evidence), though I’m not really sure why. A week or so ago I wondered aloud about whether they still make/sell those molds where you can make Jello eggs for Easter. I found this page (which has since been updated for the upcoming holiday!), and saw that I could purchase the mold, for 3.50$ and free shipping, no less. Sold.

I was kind of thrown off by the products not actually residing at KraftFoods.com in addition to the non-standard checkout process. Actually, now that I’m thinking more about it, maybe it was the use of the Lucida Handwriting typeface. Since they listed a customer service line I figured I’d call and see if there was a legitimate menu and then maybe I’d place an order.

Instead I was put immediately through to a live customer service representative (!) for Kraft Foods, who I don’t think was accustomed to fielding website validity inquiries, so that was really awkward. Also, I hadn’t planned on talking to anyone at all, but he and I muddled through (and all the while I had a amused audience, as I was still at work).

Anyway, the mold came in this week and I’m just now realizing this post would be far better if I had actually used it yet, but alas, so be on the lookout for that. And, I just thought I’d let you know you can feel good about ordering Jello egg molds from Kraft!
