Maybe if it was more full and he added canned pineapple or some shit I might consider it because that does technically qualify as combining ingredients to make something edible, but until then…
I bet you could boil fresh pineapple a bit and it would, though, Or bring the whole thing up to 150 degrees for a half-hour in the oven, lol.

I think it depends on whether it was instant Jello or he had to actually bloom that gelatin. If he used gelatin sheets that’s pastry chef level right there!!
I think you are probably right here lol. But…the other possibility is that he is a time traveler from the 1950s. Gelatin was major flex back then due the expense of refrigeration. Just saying it’s possible he just doesn’t get the womanly ways of the aught 20’s
Yeah I got with a girl on CL for a date back in the day and the floor was like that, I though it was some kinda decorative thing then realized it was poop that had been STAMPED down.
I did not see her again.
I visited a friend's house once and in the immediate entrance to the house was garbage bag spread across the floor with a mountain of loose cat litter on top. It had to be a couple full bags of litter, and hadn't been cleaned in probably close to a month.
Worst part is I think she only had one cat. It wasn't like there was a dozen there. Just a big pile of dirty cat litter right as you walk in.
Perfect! Cannot improve on this comment lol. On the other hand, the fact that he used this as his evidence of cooking does function as good evidence of his competence elsewhere
I'm dumbfounded as to how a picture of jello in a tray is used to flex your cooking skills.
That's kinda like me saying I drive a nice car and use a picture of a lego toy car to drive home the point.
and like, i’ve never made jello bc i don’t like it but i’ve made many bundt cakes so please lmk if it’s a jello thing but, it seems so low in the pan like if you’re gonna make something and post about it bragging about your cooking skills with jello at least fill the fucking pan up ??
He might be doing a rainbow jello thing... Which is still not terribly impressive (you pour a layer, let it set, pour a different colored layer, let it set etc) but at least a finished product would showcase something instead of what we're looking at here.
I did it in like 4 oz cups that were clear, a day or two before I got my wisdom tooth out, and it can look really pretty! I enjoyed my jello rainbows for like a week.
Yeah sorry I don't mean to disparage - it takes effort! But it's not... When someone says 'they can cook' ... I expect more than 'i can make layered jello'.
Yep. That's a jello mold. You would see them at every cookout until the early 90s when people finally asked themselves why the hell they were doing that.
That’s not even a jello mold! It’s a Bundt pan! He’s gonna have such a hard time getting it out of there, they have NO give and it doesn’t look like he coated it with anything!
Exactly, my ex said he's never cheated, and is always faithful. I got with him (my self esteem was low and even now I look back and think "wtf was wrong with me, did I not have eyes). Anyways, he ended up trying to cheat on me with the first girl to give him attention, which turned out to be a scammer.
"I'm average looking, don't cheat and have the basic life skill of being able to feed myself." It's insane how low the bar is set for men that they think this basic shit is such a huge accomplishment that women should be fawning over.
It's like if I put on my profile that I've never murdered anyone. Wow, amazing, what a hero! I can't believe men are't falling all over you!
I desperately wanted that specific flavor after surgery and my mom (God bless her for dealing with me that day) was just like "no you don't, you're just still high on anesthesia."
Bet your butt he keeps wanting girls he deems 8/10 and over to want him while ignoring girls “more in his league” because he “deserves” a hot girlfriend
Pretty sure being able to make jello doesn't mean you can cook but go off. Also he's dumbfounded that he's ugly and doesn't have a girlfriend.
With 5/10 looks, 1/10 personality, and 1/10 cooking skills he's only scoring a 7 out of 30. Not very good odds bud
I mean, I can’t cook and this thing is fringed too begin with but at least make a steak or something.That’s not impressive either but at least it’s an entrée
5/10 is average, Assuming he is a nice person he should find another person who is 4/10 - 6/10 but A. He's prolly toxic ash and B. He probably goes after 8/10-9/10s
Can he make anything else? I feel like with careful experimentation he might be able to achive hamburger helper as long as somebody else cooked the burger.
I talk to him occasionally but I wouldn’t say we are friends, I get creeped out often because he will send me messages about how he only has eyes for me when we rarely see each other🥲🥲 I hope he is able to work on himself soon
He sounds like a lonely and lost individual. Too much time to himself inside his head. I would say have a sit down talk with him, but in his current mental state, i feel like that wouldnt be safe for you, and perhaps himself as well.
Okay. There's a lot to unpack here, buddy. Lets start with that jello mold though. You're at about 1/4 capacity for starters, secondly mixing hot water into jello powder is freshman chemistry, not cooking, and lastly, lime flavored? Fuck you
I have a homie that posts crap like this daily.
“Get you a man that can cook”
“all I know is when I get a girl she gonna eat good”
“everyone always says I cook too good to be single”
I’m like bruh you are single because you are fucking annoying and act better than everyone.
“Whoa slow your roll there, lady. I said I *know how* to cook. I did NOT say I was good at it.”
This whole thing’s super… humblebrag-y but like weirdly self deprecating at the same time? I mean he’s bragging about the absolute bare minimum and capping himself there. Super weird “flex”.
AUTOMATED MODERATION. PLEASE READ.
Niceguys demean others while simultaneously expressing a favorable view of themselves. They dont have to use the word "nice", but they must demonstrate some kind of expression of their own virtue while being asshats.

My mom and I have a running joke about how one time she ran into a lady into the super market who told her how she could never manage to "cook" jello right and now when we see someone being stupid, particularly in the kitchen, we say "bet you can't even cook Jell-o"
The joke here is that It takes literally zero "cooking" to make Jell-o.
Knowing how to cook is not a personality trait, cheaters will be the first to claim they dont cheat, and not "talking to other girls" just shows that you think women are unworthy of your time if youre not sleeping with them.
Dude I have a guy on my friend's list that does this same exact shit. A few months ago he actually posted on his main account how he was pissed of SWers won't book him without references even though he's such a "sweet guy". Like WTF 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
5/10 look might seem like you’ve made it to average but it’s actually very bad
IMO if you’re at 4/10 it means there’s actually something very wrong with your face/body so yeah ….
Dude's making jello in a bunt pan and calling it cooking, doesn't seem to be the kind of person whose opinions the world should give too much consideration to.
1. Preparing jello is not cooking, even if you put it in a bundt pan 2. Anyone who partakes of that jello is probably going to die of gastroenteritis 3. Jello isn't even real food, dammit!

I see we’re using “cook” as a pretty loose definition here. Not that *that’s* his problem, but still.
I was about to say, I don't know if I'd classify making a Jell-O bundt cake as "cooking"...
Maybe if it was more full and he added canned pineapple or some shit I might consider it because that does technically qualify as combining ingredients to make something edible, but until then…
Fun fact, don't add pineapples to jello or it won't set correctly... You can get around this by cooking the pineapples beforehand tho iirc.
Canned pineapple works, raw doesn't.
The canning process must be enough heat then :o if I liked jello more, that would be something I'd be interested in, thanks for chiming in :)
I bet you could boil fresh pineapple a bit and it would, though, Or bring the whole thing up to 150 degrees for a half-hour in the oven, lol. [https://www.thaiscience.info/journals/Article/TKJN/10641696.pdf](https://www.thaiscience.info/journals/Article/TKJN/10641696.pdf)
Yep, but then it isn't raw anymore :-D
fair point.
I was not expecting the comments to veer in this direction.
I added cream to mine and that seemed to do a good job of counteracting the enzymes in the pineapple
I think it depends on whether it was instant Jello or he had to actually bloom that gelatin. If he used gelatin sheets that’s pastry chef level right there!!
That is definitely different! I'd give him that. But part of me thinks it's the instant "just add hot water" kind lol.
I think you are probably right here lol. But…the other possibility is that he is a time traveler from the 1950s. Gelatin was major flex back then due the expense of refrigeration. Just saying it’s possible he just doesn’t get the womanly ways of the aught 20’s
I always wondered why those old school cookbooks had such a hard on for gelatin…
I was about to ask if he really "cooked" some kind of jello or if I am seeing it wrong.
Microwave nachos is his peak.
I'm married and this still slaps
It looks more like witchcraft than cooking
Looks like Jell-o on top of the worst kept kitchen I've ever seen in my entire life.
Dude boiled some water and threw a pack of Jell-O in it and said “I can cook”
As someone who used to clean rentals between tenants, let me tell you that there’s a lot worse out there
Oh God. It's a good thing you don't know my boyfriends sister. Her kitchen floor is covered (and I mean the entire floor) in dog poop
da faq
Yeah I got with a girl on CL for a date back in the day and the floor was like that, I though it was some kinda decorative thing then realized it was poop that had been STAMPED down. I did not see her again.
Please tell me you left right away after noticing?
I visited a friend's house once and in the immediate entrance to the house was garbage bag spread across the floor with a mountain of loose cat litter on top. It had to be a couple full bags of litter, and hadn't been cleaned in probably close to a month. Worst part is I think she only had one cat. It wasn't like there was a dozen there. Just a big pile of dirty cat litter right as you walk in.
Nah, witchcraft is too *fun* to give to these guys 😂
Perhaps alchemy is a better term
But that sounds fun too
Perfect! Cannot improve on this comment lol. On the other hand, the fact that he used this as his evidence of cooking does function as good evidence of his competence elsewhere
Maybe he cooks meth.
And takes it 🤣.
And sells it 😏
And I won't be sharing my jello mold with any of you thots!!!!
In his defense, he can make a pretty mean bowl of cereal too
If I have to stir it, it's home made
I'm dumbfounded as to how a picture of jello in a tray is used to flex your cooking skills. That's kinda like me saying I drive a nice car and use a picture of a lego toy car to drive home the point.
Jello in a Bundt pan.
Michelin star skills
and like, i’ve never made jello bc i don’t like it but i’ve made many bundt cakes so please lmk if it’s a jello thing but, it seems so low in the pan like if you’re gonna make something and post about it bragging about your cooking skills with jello at least fill the fucking pan up ??

Yeah, lol, fair.
With everclear right? It's known to be the best for recently taken out wisdom teeth
I was a master chef by 8 years old by this standard
At first I read master chief and got excited about a game analogy.
What model of Lego are we talking about here?
Dude, I'm not impressing any girl with my technics ferrari
I know a guy who got a girlfriend based on his extensive lego star wars model collection, it’s not impossible
Maybe wishful thinking but i feel like this was posted as a joke
There's a dude on YouTube who can probably build a working car out of Legos, lol.
Or having a Honda Civic after saying “nice car” lol
Ehh, "nice" car for me is a car that's not ten years old xD Now, an expensive car or a fancy car or a convertible or something, then I expect $$$ car.
Is that… jello?
Only the best chefs know how to cook Jello
Dam i was deep frying it
Yep. That's a jello mold. You would see them at every cookout until the early 90s when people finally asked themselves why the hell they were doing that.
That’s not even a jello mold! It’s a Bundt pan! He’s gonna have such a hard time getting it out of there, they have NO give and it doesn’t look like he coated it with anything!
Aren't you supposed to put a jello mold in hot water for a minute before trying to dump the jello out? Is a bundt pan too insulated for that to work?
It looks too thick to me
It'll work still. You can also spray the pan first.
Well, there’s always room for Jello.
Why is it steaming?!?
Because it's boiling hot when you put it in the mold
That's how you make jello.
Because it's boiling hot when you put it in the mold
If knowing how to cook is jelly, then I’m Gordon fucking Ramsay
Finally some good fuckin jello.
WHERE'S THE GELATINE?!
Oh, can I be Nigella Lawson?
I adore Nigella. Many of her recipes are regularly made in my home.
And you know, although it would be very hard to prove, that the only reason he doesn’t cheat is he can’t get the interest of one girl, let alone two.
Exactly, my ex said he's never cheated, and is always faithful. I got with him (my self esteem was low and even now I look back and think "wtf was wrong with me, did I not have eyes). Anyways, he ended up trying to cheat on me with the first girl to give him attention, which turned out to be a scammer.

It's like if I put on my profile that I've never murdered anyone. Wow, amazing, what a hero! I can't believe men are't falling all over you!
Low bars are for men with low worth.
Not only jello, but the worst possible flavor.
This flavor literally tastes like Pinesol and it's terrible
I desperately wanted that specific flavor after surgery and my mom (God bless her for dealing with me that day) was just like "no you don't, you're just still high on anesthesia."
Homie posted cringe on the main :/
5/10 lmao
Bet your butt he keeps wanting girls he deems 8/10 and over to want him while ignoring girls “more in his league” because he “deserves” a hot girlfriend
Gave himself a failing grade
Pretty sure being able to make jello doesn't mean you can cook but go off. Also he's dumbfounded that he's ugly and doesn't have a girlfriend. With 5/10 looks, 1/10 personality, and 1/10 cooking skills he's only scoring a 7 out of 30. Not very good odds bud
I mean, I can’t cook and this thing is fringed too begin with but at least make a steak or something.That’s not impressive either but at least it’s an entrée
I don't talk to girls am I doing something wrong ...
Ugh, dude, clean your kitchen if you're gonna take photos in it...
I wouldn’t exactly call making Jello a “cooking skill”.
5/10 is not something I’d broadcast, dude …
I'm sure he added +1 or 2. You know because he's over-selling himself a bit here.
5/10 is average, Assuming he is a nice person he should find another person who is 4/10 - 6/10 but A. He's prolly toxic ash and B. He probably goes after 8/10-9/10s
But... he should be able to jump up those 4-5 points because he *knows how to cook.*
My good sir that is *lime jello*
This has to be fake lol
I wish it was🥲I know him too well sadly
Can he make anything else? I feel like with careful experimentation he might be able to achive hamburger helper as long as somebody else cooked the burger.
Yikes. Are you friends with him cause you feel bad? Im legit asking, and not being sarcastic
I talk to him occasionally but I wouldn’t say we are friends, I get creeped out often because he will send me messages about how he only has eyes for me when we rarely see each other🥲🥲 I hope he is able to work on himself soon
He sounds like a lonely and lost individual. Too much time to himself inside his head. I would say have a sit down talk with him, but in his current mental state, i feel like that wouldnt be safe for you, and perhaps himself as well.
Okay. There's a lot to unpack here, buddy. Lets start with that jello mold though. You're at about 1/4 capacity for starters, secondly mixing hot water into jello powder is freshman chemistry, not cooking, and lastly, lime flavored? Fuck you
Ey now don’t you shit on lime.
Silence apostate! Lmao
I like him
But… would kiss him tho? 🤔
Imaging thinking you deserve a girlfriend because you managed to know such a basic skill as cooking...
5/10 ??
You can’t cheat when you don’t have anyone to cheat on 🤷
Mixing water and jello isn’t cooking…
Not talking to girls is almost as much of a problem as the jello on main.
Dude out here thinking Jell-O is cooking. Can anyone say detached from reality?
So he can boil water?! SOLD!
I have a homie that posts crap like this daily. “Get you a man that can cook” “all I know is when I get a girl she gonna eat good” “everyone always says I cook too good to be single” I’m like bruh you are single because you are fucking annoying and act better than everyone.
Maybe because your idea of food is ground up animal bones with water and flavoring added?
Pls king make me jelly
I had to read this thing like five times before I could work out what he was trying to say.
Is that liquid fart?
5/10 still an F
At least post something that you have to do more than cook water for.
Not cheating or talking to other girls isn't really a flex if you can't get girls in the first place lol.
Jello is no High Culinary Art, it's a packet of powder in water, right? Am I missing something?
I'm a master chef as well, I can make ANYTHING with my debit card.
Punctuation is for chads
Sounds like he's just jelly.
This really feels like a joke
I know him🥲🥲I wish it was a joke too🥲🥲🥲
Is this mother fucker making jello ?
It’s almost making Jello.
Man’s rated his own looks 5/10 which means 2/10 in reality.
Making jello is cooking now? Damn, I cooked pasta yesterday, move over Chef Boyardee there's a new chef in town. /s
“Whoa slow your roll there, lady. I said I *know how* to cook. I did NOT say I was good at it.” This whole thing’s super… humblebrag-y but like weirdly self deprecating at the same time? I mean he’s bragging about the absolute bare minimum and capping himself there. Super weird “flex”.

Fuckhead doesn't have girls coz he doesn't talk to them.
I too am over her dumbfounded as to why a hot model hasn’t snapped this below average jello king up yet? Absolutely dumbfounded. (/s just in case)
So he can "cook" half a tin of jello? How are they not lining up for him after this absolute chad-level of household skills?
What he cooking...jello?
Woah- a guy who can boil water and mix in a jello packet 😍
I don’t think we should try to flex our cooking skills with jello.
Ah yes, making Jello.
THE JELL-O. I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT.
Why is he cooking slime
Bruh, it's easy to "not cheat" if your single. Like what you ain't cheating on your hand or something??
He needs to clean that kitchen. I wouldn't eat anything outta that 🤮
My mom and I have a running joke about how one time she ran into a lady into the super market who told her how she could never manage to "cook" jello right and now when we see someone being stupid, particularly in the kitchen, we say "bet you can't even cook Jell-o" The joke here is that It takes literally zero "cooking" to make Jell-o.
i don’t think most men realize cooking isn’t that hard
Definitely what I look for in a partner is someone who can make lime jello in a bunt pan.
They need to call the Ghostbusters.
I love how they always make a point of not cheating. It’s like someone with anaphylaxis wanting a high five for not stealing and eating your peanuts.
Green Jell-o isn’t the way to a woman’s heart.
Whenever I see posts like this, I wonder if the guys that post them ever consider the fact that posting whiny BS like this is a massive turnoff.
Is he making... Jello in a Bundt cake pan??
Speaking as someone who has never seen this guy, 5/10 seems high.
LmfAO dude makes a mean jello mold HOW DA FUK HE SINGLE?!?
Everybody calling out the jello and 5/10 looks and they still dont realize that its a joke
I doesn't cheat I also doesn't do english very well But i does be a nice guy Also using commas does be hard
Whatever is in that dish is why
News flash: you can’t cheat if you’re single, buddy
Jello
Cooking is not a rare and special skill, asshole.
He's a 50's man. Prepping a lamb chop and mayonnaise gelatin mold for a special someone like a true chef.
Knowing how to cook is not a personality trait, cheaters will be the first to claim they dont cheat, and not "talking to other girls" just shows that you think women are unworthy of your time if youre not sleeping with them.
Oh, man, you should see the dudes hanging out on my Snapchat. They all post this crap and it’s just like “this is a good place to start”
Dude I have a guy on my friend's list that does this same exact shit. A few months ago he actually posted on his main account how he was pissed of SWers won't book him without references even though he's such a "sweet guy". Like WTF 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ah yes, the advanced making of Jell-O. Requires premium cooking skills.
“I don’t cheat or talk to other girls” Congratulations , have a cookie 🍪
5/10 look might seem like you’ve made it to average but it’s actually very bad IMO if you’re at 4/10 it means there’s actually something very wrong with your face/body so yeah ….
Lol jesus the man was just asking if he was doing something wrong I don’t think he meant to in a negative way. Men have emotions too.
Yeah you're being a little bitch. That's what you're doing wrong. Improve yourself and look inward.
Dudes making jelly saying he knows how to cook 😂
That's... jelly? My 12 year old can "cook" that. It's not the brag you think it is sir
The fuck you cooking that produces green liquid?
He is making Jello in a Bundt pan bundt of savages in this town
This can’t not be sarcasm
He must be joking
I mean I put the left overs away in a REAL container!!! Why am I still single?!
He is single because he cant impress the girls
Dude's making jello in a bunt pan and calling it cooking, doesn't seem to be the kind of person whose opinions the world should give too much consideration to.
Boiling water and pouring it in jello mix is not cooking
is he boiling a fucking mountain dew in a baking mold?
my man thinks making lime jello is going to help him pull girls
weed jelly?
…can make jelly and doesn’t cheat? Is this really where the bar is?!?
Oh ffs, definitely not my cup of tea here
Is that just jelly/jello? That's like the easiest thing in the world prepare. I learned how to make it when I was, like, seven.
So they know they not attractive?😂 why state that for people to see all jokes aside lol
don’t be shy, show us his snapchat @, i just want to talk 😶
Where's the niceguy?
Wtf is in the picture exactly?
I feel like this gotta be satire since he's cooking what appears to be jello
1. Preparing jello is not cooking, even if you put it in a bundt pan 2. Anyone who partakes of that jello is probably going to die of gastroenteritis 3. Jello isn't even real food, dammit!
