Honda Motor Co. made sure its well-known auto motive name was prominently displayed on the firm's new power lawnmower. General Foods named its dessert-on-a-stick Jell-O Pudding Pops. Also in the testing stage: Jell-O Slice Creme, a freezer cake mix; and Jell-O Gelatin Pops, whipped gelatin on a stick.
