I have question for you....and I know its probably dumb....but...ahhh... What is Kool-aid??? I can across it in a recipe for Play Do on the net. (I'm looking for toddler craft ideas.)

Kool-Aid is a powdered drink mix that you can buy in the store. It's super cheap, partly because it has no sugar in it. This is one of the advertising features: that Moms can 'control the sugar' by adding as much or as little as they like. As far as Play-Doh goes, they probably want you to use it because it has a strong color in the powder. A substitute would be any kind of strongly-colored drink mix powder.

Or another substitute would be (could be) a few drops of food colouring. The other reason kindergarten teachers like the Kool-aid is that is give the play-do a nice smell(scent.)

More specifically it's basically a Fruit Punch mix. And it's okay Ebony, I was talking with coworkers the other day how some people living here, didn't know about PB&J or Mac and Cheese having been raised by a Mexican family.

And as any self-respecting Canadian knows, that's 'KD', or Kraft Dinner.

While they have answered the question as to what it is Ebony. My question to you would be... would you like some sent sometime?

Thanks all....Now I know what it is, I don't need it in my Play doh...for the kids. mmm wondering if we can mould a God Pheniox out of it...just for fun! the thread got lost on me... Can you believe I didn't taste Macdonalds until I turned 18yrs old and then I hated the burger because it didn't have beetroot on it and BBQ sauce. I lived in a town that didn't have a Macca's until I left town. Yep I grew up without Macdonalds!!!

You really weren't missing much. So much better fast food places.

We had the Tiki take away!! That was interesting...Deep fried everything. I wonder if Met eats deep fried Mars Bars...now thats a heart stopper fix...
