There's Always Room...

Jello-Cisco

Why? Because why wouldn't you want an entire replica of the city of San Francisco made completely out of Jello? I know Bill Cosby would, and that's good enough for me.

And speaking of Jello, did you know that "Jello is made from gelatin, an animal product rendered from the hides and bones of animals? The production of gelatin starts with the boiling of bones, skins, and hides of cows and pigs, a process that releases the protein-rich collagen from animal tissues. The collagen is boiled and filtered numerous times, dried, and ground to a powder. Because the collagen is processed extensively, the final product is not categorized as a meat or animal product by the federal government." (thanks, Snopes!)

You know, that's pretty disgusting. It's probably better if you didn't know that for the next time you dig into Auntie Bertha's Jello-fruit dish.
