I tried making jello pudding with rice milk and it didn't ever set up. It still tasted pretty good but it didn't ever 'pudding.' Don't know if there is something else you need to do to make it actually work with the thinner milk. Anyone??

Jello is a no-no. I believe it's because of the food dye. I don't eat the stuff anyway, so I never paid much attention. But you can do a search for it -- I know this was discussed several months ago.

Bevrs, I think she was asking about the jello pudding and not the regular jello.

I'm not sure on the pudding being safe...but I do know that soy milk at least silk soy doesn't set up in jello. Try a different brand of soy milk.

Yesterday I had chocolate flavored soy pudding from the HFS -- not amazing, but might satisfy a craving. The consistency is perfect, but the taste is a little different, but not at all bad.

Belsoy makes an amazing soy pudding already in the cups (it'll take you back to your childhood lunch box in an instant!). They're yummy. Look in the pudding section or organic section of your grocery store. They are my ultimate treat.

No Jello Puddings...or regular Jello. That's the rule of the diet...Now I know alot of IBS'ers and they eat it and have no problems with it, using fat free brands with fat free milk. BUt when I was sick and the Dr. said well we have to do more test eat tthe brat diet and treat as the flu. Jello made me worse everytime as well as Gatorade's.
So I guess some can handle it and others not. Eating for Ibs is not.

Same for me, too; I tried making instant pudding with soy milk and it wouldn't set up.

There's something in that brand, don't know what, that keeps puddings and custards from setting up. I haven't had this experience personally, but have heard from lots of other folks who had. Only Silk brand seems to have this problem. This was about homemade puddings though, so with the jello brand stuff there might be ingredients in the powder mix causing problems too.

I'm pretty sure it's the jello mix. My stepmom and I tried making banana pudding with Soy Dream soy milk and vanilla Jello pudding mix, and ended up with mush! So we improvised in the end by adding ice and making smoothies. 
But half-way through, my stomach started throwing fits so if you can't tolerate the jello mix, I wouldn't try it.

I used Rice Dream, not soy milk. I've used it to make homemade pudding but when I tried it with the mix, ended up with soup.
