Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Love this salad. Back in the 50s & 60s it was called 'Snappy Salad'. Back in the day, there was 1 extra ingredient, 1 tablespoon of 'horseradish'. It gave the salad some ZING. Hence, 'Snappy' salad. I highly recommend putting the horseradish in the salad. Try it. You'll love it that way....
what size package of jello do you use the large box or the small one?
