While I love anything watermelon, and couldn't wait to dig into this pie, I as well as my husband, did not care for this dessert. It just didn't have that WOW factor! We thought it was rather bland. Both of us ate one piece, then discarded the rest. I'm sorry I couldn't of given a better review.

I made this and while it tasted delicious, it didn't set up as well as it should have. Maybe the heat??? I will try it again though because the flavor is so good and we always seem to have portions of watermelon left over after cutting into one. I couldn't find the watermelon jello so I used fruit punch flavored jello instead. Still tasted divine!!

Have made this several times for guests, and everybody is always surprised and raves about it. Lovely end to a summer meal!

It tastes like a watermelon jolly rancher. Pretty good. You could easily change this with different fruit and jello mix (strawberry, peach, raspberry, cherry...)

This pie is delicious, I can't get enough of it. A friend brought a pie to work. She used cherry jello. We liked it so much the next day she brought two, one with watermelon jello and one made with strawberry jello. My favorite is actually the one with cherry jello. It has more flavor and is a darker pink than the watermelon jellon. Don't be afraid to make it with a different flavor jello. Today I made one to take to a family reunion. I also made one with orange jello and mandarin oranges. I'm going to call that Mandarin Pie.

Some wal-marts do sell individual boxes of the watermelon jello! This is perfect for a summer day! So so so refreshing! Everyone loved it! Nice choice for something other than the normal strawberry, cherry, or blueberry pie!

You can get Watermellon Jello at amazon.com also! It seems to be a rare treat. Unfortunately, they are only sold in a case of 24. lol
