😔 Low Appetite

Eat just 3-4 spoonfuls. Even this small amount provides gentle sweetness and hydration. Save rest covered for later.

🤢 Feeling Nauseous

Serve very cold from fridge. Plain flavors (strawberry orange) often better than strong flavors. Eat one tiny spoonful at a time.

😊 Normal Appetite

Eat full pot or 2 pots. Not particularly filling so multiple pots fine on better days. Could add fresh fruit.

💜 Jelly eaten straight from the pot with a teaspoon is perfectly appropriate gentle food. Childhood comfort that still works.

💜 Even a few spoonfuls provides gentle fruit-flavored sugar for energy. Water content helps with hydration.

📦 Storage & Make-Ahead

Unopened jelly pots keep in fridge for weeks until use-by date. Once opened keep covered and eat within 24 hours.
