Mmmmm..... Jello

This article caught my eye on Boston.com because I used to live maybe a mile or so from this factory (over the line in Stoneham). The very end of the article mentions that "the plant for years generated mostly pleasant aromas, like strawberry flavoring..." And it's true. I used to step off the school bus and be greeted by the smell of fruity Jello in the air. It was almost magical... particularly so since I was only 7 years old. So it makes me kind of sad to hear that now it smells all nasty.
In other news, Discovery has a show on in about 40 minutes called "Destroyed in Seconds"... I am frickin excited. For once I wish I had a DVR so midnightcoder could experience the wonderousness... lol.
