Stretches wide and far. "Beginning in Utah, the corridor extends northward through western Wyoming and eastern Idaho to Yellowstone National Park. It reaches south to San Bernardino, California on the west and through Mesa, Arizona on the east, extending southward to the U.S.-Mexico border. Settlements in Utah, south of the Wasatch Front, stretched from St. George in the southwest to Nephi in the northeast, including the Sevier River valley. The corridor is roughly congruent with the area between present-day Interstate 15 and U.S. Route 89. Outside of the Wasatch Front, and Utah's Cache Valley, most of the population of the state resides in this corridor. Outside of the Western United States, isolated Mormon settlements were also founded in Western Canada and Mexico....

[Also noteworthy,] The Mormon Corridor has been nicknamed[7] the "Jell-O belt" due to the popularity of Jell-O in the region. One of the official pins for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City was a green Jell-O jiggler in the shape of the state.

According to the Los Angeles Times, "Salt Lake City is America's Jell-O-eating capital. Every man, woman and child in Salt Lake City buys two boxes of the stuff annually, or twice the national average, says Mary Jane Kinkade of Jell-O brand gelatin-maker Kraft Foods. Utah residents also eat twice as much lime Jell-O as anyone else on the planet." (Wikipedia)

Now who woulda guessed that?! ;-)

Don't forget the yummy fry sauce.

I went into a SLC grocery store, and it had a "Jell-o" section. I swear to God, it had its own sign, and everything! Cereal, canned vegetables, canned fruit, Jell-o. I burst out laughing!

Well that explains it! The artificial colors and flavors in Jello are neurotoxins..

Since Salt Lake City is one of the least Mormon areas in Utah, it is hard to conclude that SLC's obsession with Jello is a Mormon thing. If it were a Mormon thing, Provo would be the jello capital of the world.
