Well, of course, being from Columbus, GA, I have had "coke salad"
many times. In fact, Columbus, was the home of Dr. John S. Pemberton, a pharmacist who concocted the original (and still secret) formula for Coca-Cola syrup. He died in 1888.
I have a couple of other "jello" salads I love, one with lime jello, pineapple and cottage cheese and the other with strawberry jello, fresh rhubarb and cream cheese.
Well....that just sounds terrific!!! May have to give it a try! And I got it....NOT sugar free...LOL!! By the way, I was going to venture out to see Sarah Palin when she was in town signing her book last week. I'm glad I didn't...as people told me it was rather a riot scene and many folks were turned away...but I'm still going to read the book!!
Sounds good. My husband has a similar version that he has to whip up every year.
looks and sounds yummy! And it has fruit and dairy products so why all the guilt?!! Just enjoy the yumminess!!
Okay I've never heard of it but it does look totally decadent. And Donna I so appreciate the sacrifice you made having another piece for us all ROFL. Saving this recipe to try out.
Marty is an EXPERT in "salads", and he most assuredly says that is NOT "salad"! hahahahaha!!!!!!
hmmmmm. i just don't know what to think about this.
at least i say Pah-khan right. :))
anyhow-- part of me wants to try it-- part of me screams at the the mere thought of mayo in such a yummy sounding 'thing'.
if i ever do make it-- i would be forced to substitute sour cream..or plain yogurt . i just can't see mayo in this. can ya tell i'm not a mayo fan?
anyhow-- thanks for sharing your recipe. i'll let ya know if i give it a whirl.
hugs
All this yummy food - and I'm on a diet. I've never heard of coke salad before, but I'm intrigued.
Oh boy- this sounds sinful, Miss Debbie!! (But I like to be BAD every once in a while... *snicker*) Thanks for sharing this!
I never heard about this but it sounds delicious...I may try it...yes I will, tomorrow I'll go to the store and buy the ingredients I don't have here, just what I need: a new recipe, i am so exited, Thanks for sharing Donna.
Very interesting....but sounds yummy!!
Hugs,
Donna
