The cost per ounce for the 6-ounce box of strawberry gelatin is $0.90 / 6 = $0.15 per ounce.

The cost per ounce for the 3-ounce box of strawberry gelatin is $0.42 / 3 = $0.14 per ounce.

The difference in cost per ounce between the larger and smaller boxes is $0.15 - $0.14 = $0.01.

Therefore, the difference in cost per ounce between the larger and smaller boxes is $0.01.
