Creating a ragged right, inline list, separated by bullets or line breaks

Question

I'd like to create a ragged right inlist list, where each item is separated by either a bullet or a line break.

For example: I'd like the following

\usepackage{ragged2e}
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.31\textwidth}
  \begin{flushleft}
    \begin{mylist}
      \item Apple 
      \item Berry
      \item Rocky~Road 
      \item Cream
      \item Jello
      \item Fish 
    \end{mylist}
  \end{flushleft}

To yield this:

So more specifically, each item should be separated by a bullet until we hit the end of a line, in which case a line break should be used instead.

Right now, I have to manually format the list like so:

\begin{flushleft}
  Apple \textbullet{} Berry\\
  Rocky~Road \textbullet{} Cream\\
  Jello \textbullet{} Fish 
\end{flushleft}

This latter way of doing it is extremely painful as any update to the list involves manually reformatting the whole list.

Paralist comes close to providing the functionality I need, but it precedes each item with a bullet, whereas I need to separate each item with either a bullet or a linebreak.

Thank you for your time!

\documentclass{article}

\newenvironment{mylist}{\def\item{\ifhmode\cleaders\hbox to 1.9em{\hss\textbullet\hss}\hskip2em\fi}}{}
\begin{document}


\begin{minipage}[t]{0.31\textwidth}
  \begin{flushleft}
    \begin{mylist}
      \item Apple 
      \item Berry
      \item Rocky~Road 
      \item Cream
      \item Jello
      \item Fish 
    \end{mylist}
  \end{flushleft}
\end{minipage}
\hfill\vrule\hfill
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.61\textwidth}
  \begin{flushleft}
    \begin{mylist}
      \item Apple 
      \item Berry
      \item Rocky~Road 
      \item Cream
      \item Jello
      \item Fish 
    \end{mylist}
  \end{flushleft}
\end{minipage}

\end{document}
