And here's a marshmallow jello popcorn ball. I have never tried these, but they look interesting.

JELLO POPCORN BALLS
1 stick butter
1 lb. marshmallows
1 (3 oz.) pkg. orange or peach Jello
3 batches popped popcorn in lg. bowl
Melt butter, add marshmallows, stir until melted. Add Jello and stir until dissolved. Pour over popcorn - wait a bit then stir until all popcorn is covered. Form in balls and store individually in baggies. Moisten hands with cold water to keep from sticking to hands.

At Christmas time it is fun to make it in the shape of a large Christmas tree and put gumdrops on for ornaments and give to neighbors or friends as gifts.

Well, this is my 6th baby. I have diabetes while pregnant (gestational). Artificial sweetner in moderation is fine. Everyone needs a treat now and then!

I am glad you didn't have any problems with it. I tend to be overly cautiouis. When is your baby due?? Do you know what you are having?

Oh yucky.

I love all different flavored popcorn, but stuck together wish marshmallows. Please I can't take it. Enjoy your popcorn balls.

I'm only 7 weeks along now, so we won't know for about another 2 to 3 months what we're having. I'm due May 18th.

I was also overly cautious with my first pregnancies. I think we all are! If I could have real sugar, then it wouldn't be an issue. But when you're diabetic, you can't take everything away. Splenda is the best artificial sweetener to use because it is actually made from sugar. Plus, if you look at the more recent research, they can't prove that artificial sweetener has any effect on a fetus. So I just use it in moderation.

Anyway, I don't know of a low fat way to make the popcorn balls. If you used fat free jello?

My mom makes me special popcorn wreaths with green food coloring and little red hots in them so it looks like holly. And they are so yummy!
