I have a recipe for a strawberry version (no pineapple, mix strawberries in with strawberry jello) from when I lived in Georgia. The sweet sister who shared it with me was southern born and bred so I don't think it's a Utah thing! I love the mix of sweet and salty together.

Mmmm. I think this might qualify for my food storage. :) JELLO and pretzels and pineapple. I'm going to try it.
