If you make the Jello pudding, definitely buy the kind that
you cook. Not the instant.

Chocolate pudding is ok by itself but I like it better on
the side with some vanilla ice cream.

Also, an old comfort food...my mom occasionally made this one:

Chocolate pie -
Homemade pie shell, baked.
Fill with the hot Jello pudding.
Let cool then chill in fridge.
Yum!

All that said, I rarely eat this and the "Snack Pack" pudding
is pretty darn good. Only $1 for 4 small servings. They have
various combinations of it too.

Last time I bought this stuff was (guessing) 2-3 years ago
and I never got around to it. Still in the back of my
fridge. I wonder if it's still good?

That chuck roast looks good, it has very little fat for chuck... I'd
have cooked it a bit rarer. You also could have ground it for
burgers, meat loaf, meat-a-balles, or grind it coarsely for chili.

Easy, buy a bag of mini marshmallows.

Chocolate puddding pie is much better with a no-bake graham cracker
pie crust... sold already formed... topped with marshmallow fluff. For
a real treat have chocolate covered graham crackers with a puddding
dip.
