My boyfriend and I were driving from Boston to Toronto and wanted to see some kind of quirky roadside attraction along the way. We chose the Jell-o museum! The docent at the museum was a sweet old lady who told us the story of the invention of Jello and pointed out neat things about the museum. We were then left... More

This museum of what has become such a common, nearly staple, item in America's diet is unbelievable. Interesting history, nicely exhibited. More

shows the development of an American icon, Jello. Original art from advertising, early packaging and a mini documentary about Bill Cosby's years as the Jello spokesperson. Great nostalgia viewing. Nice little gift shop - small museum but kids should appreciate it. More

If you're passing near Leroy, a stop at the Jell-O Museum is well worth doing. The folks telling the story of the creation and then production of Jell-O do an excellent job. My favorite part was the old TV clips of Bill Cosby commercials for Jell-O, and the cut-outs to take your photo as a Jell-O fan was fun. All... More

If you want to learn about Jello or some of the other industries in LeRoy, NY head on over to the Jello Museum where just about any question about LeRoy or Jello can be answered. Don't forget to head downstairs for more displays from the area. Be sure to get a "Rough on Rats" T-Shirt while you're at it. A... More

The ladies we met who run the museum are pasionate about JELL-O and their town. The small museum is packed with JELL-O artifacts and the gals can answer any question you may have about the product which was invented and manufactured in LeRoy. The museum also has a collection of other products that were manufactured in LeRoy over the past... More

The Jell-o Museum in Le Roy is easy to miss - the only indication off the highway is a weather beaten billboard on the I90. But it's well worth a quick stop at exit 47 to see the Jell-o Museum in pretty Le Roy, NY. We arrived right at opening, where we received a friendly greeting from the staff. A... More

For the price of admission (4 bucks or 3.50 CAA/AAA), the Jell-O Gallery Museum is worth the price of admission. I would definitely plan on only being there about an hour to an hour an a half max though, so do not plan on an all day experience. The main disappointment with the experience is that there is no Jell-o... More

if anyone's "jiggled up" about jello, then why not learn about it at the Jell-O Gallery Museum in Le Roy, New York. This nice women will start the tour explaining the history of Jell-O and then, the rest of the tour is yours. You can see pictures of jell-O mix boxes, Fake jell-O, Jell-O molds and a "Bill Cosby" Commercial... More
