I haven't watched any incarnation of Stargate other than the film itself, so I couldn't really tell you the true motives of why Jello(TM) keeps reoccurring in episodes, situations, and scenes of the universe itself, and why it may be vitally important. Perhaps Jello in their world is more delicious than in ours? Or could it be they devised it to be a super-food that packs in essential vitamins/minerals in an easy-to-eat nutritional substance?
The only thing that I can think to reference to it is that of another series, Burn Notice, where Michael Weston is very often, but also in extremely small snippets, seen to either be eating yogurt, talking candidly about yogurt (you owe me a frozen yogurt after this), or reaching into his fridge, and it is empty, save for a pack of yogurt, and maybe a few bottles of beer. The reason for all the yogurt: it is just an inside-joke devised by the creators, a show Easter Egg, if you will, of creating a circumstance of Weston eating his favorite food wherever and whenever, made to fit into small scenarios whereby it leaves the audience guessing if their will be a yogurt cameo in this episode or not.
