My two sisters and I would look forward to visiting my grandparents because my grandfather always bought us Fruit Float, he knew we all loved it ... it's a yummy, happy memory ... the Fruit Float and the visiting!
God, I remember this from when I was a kid! Was always my and my sister's favorite dessert. Good times! :)
I remember Fruit Float being so good and easy to make. Too bad someone doesn't bring it back, that and Space Food Sticks. They tasted GREAT then but I wonder if they still would?
Is it possible to purchase some of this wonderful dessert?
I've already talked about this fabulous dessert in the F section here, but I had to clear up a mistake. Fruit Float didn't come in layers, that was 123 dessert by Jell-O. As you can see from the picture Fruit Float was like a fruity pudding and it had bits of fruit in it. Oh my it was so good!
i was name after it lol i've heard that jingel my whole life lol never had it though
Well, Libby... you were a delicious dessert! Had it every Friday night at my grandparents. I would love it if they rolled it out again! Count me in!!
Even though it's been more than 30 years, I can still vividly recall the flavor. Ours was always peach and I don't know if there were other flavors as well.
Fruit float would NOT separate into 3 layers--that was a jello product-
"Jell-o 123"
Up until 30 seconds ago, I could not remember the name of the product, but I remembered fondly how good it was. Then, with no prodding, the name Fruit Float came into my head. I googled the name and here I am. My favorite flavor was peach.
I so loved the stuff too! I remember peach and strawberry!
Oh my goodness! It was the best ever! Why did they quit making it? I would buy cans of it because I was afraid I would run out before the next visit to the grocery. Yummmmmmmy!
Did it come in cans?
To Michael W: I remember Space Food Sticks too! You can get them at funkyfoodshop.com
I adored Fruit Float as a child. It was the first food that I was allowed to "cook". Sure do miss it...
I remember the commerial jingle..If it says libbys libbys libbys on the label label label you will like it like it like it on your table table table. say it 3 times fast fruit float fruit float fruit float. LOL I also love the treat strawberry was my favorite.
Wow! This brings back memories. I remember my sister and I arguing over the last "cup" of fruit float in the fridge. With the back and forth, it fell on the floor. WWWAAAAAA..... We still remember that. It came in a can and you added milk and let it set.
