2 c hot 7-Up
1 c mayonnaise
1 c cottage cheese
green food coloring, if desired

Too bad nobody in my family took a picture of the creamed tuna on toast we used to have. (PS, it was good)

"Spread on top of Jello"

a more chilling string of words have never been written

bright green hot 7-up + mayonnaise
think about it

this seriously looks like an alien fish hatchling that someone plopped onto a plate

mordy what are the pics you posted? WE NEED CAPTIONS, PEOPLE

Mordy those are gross, but the game needs to be stepped up if you are competing alongside jello + hot 7 up ;)

I apologise to anyone who enjoyed this dish but Mum used to insist on making scotch eggs

the 70's was full of dishes that hid things inside meat, or buried hidden hated vegetables in quiches

scotch egss were my worst nightmare. I hated eggs so much

SCOTCH EGGS ARE AMAZING

the only thing that could make a scotch egg more amazing is if you bit into it and inside was ANOTHER SCOTCH EGG

INFINITE SCOTCH EGG RECURSION

I've never had a scotch egg but I've wanted to try one for a while. BRB, going to VG's Mom's house.

I leave you with MAYO & PEA SURPRISE

this just looks like a really thick stew (carrots, kidney beans, potatoes, ground beaf, peas)...? I'd eat it.

my pics: first kishka (i love vegetarian style, but that's from internal organs), second is tongue, and third is cholent

I keep going back to it

KIDS WILL LOVE "SEVERED PENIS MONSTER SERVED IN ITS OWN BLOOD"

Bless my mom's heart.

She always boiled zucchini.

I think I only started liking it maybe...seven years ago when I had some grilled zucchini for the first time.

"loosening the bung" ruined my day ;_;

can a smiling dolphin bring it back?

^^^ homemade are great, store bought are mostly disgusting

enjoy delicious refreshing racism!

Boiled zucchini, Ned.. I am *so sorry.* That sounds like the best possible way to ruin zucchini!

severed penis monster ;_; tears of terrified joy at my desk right now

http://kosherkitchenshop.com/images//products/sm1kg.jpg

doesn't look disgusting but tastes like cardboard

What racism? xxxp

Boiled zucchini, Ned.. I am *so sorry.* That sounds like the best possible way to ruin zucchini!

Was it ever.

making food smile seems to be the surefire way to make an already questionable dish unspeakably hilarious

these veal rollups are cracking me up right now

it seriously looks like drooling mouths

I may have just answered my own question when I got to the Mandarinade.

i think i've run out but if i come up w/ anymore... oh wait, one more:

http://food-fun.wisconsinfood.com/.a/6a00e54f0ac1a68834010536c93a8b970c-320wi

my parents did not to the best of my knowledge eat these but there's no way they don't belong on this thread

http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i43/DrPFunkenstein/Mr_Brains_Pork_Faggots.jpg

Mini Kievs - each one was slightly smaller than a ping pong ball, the chicken was like rubber, and in the oven the cheese filling used to squirt out of the syringe hole they were filled from, leaving a burnt cheesy mess everywhere.

xp they couldn't have stuck a sausage in there to complete the amazing trolljob?

wash down your pork faggots with a refreshing smiling dolphin

Would totally eat those mini-chicken Kievs.

I haven't heard anyone say "one lump or two?" for years.

I have only ever heard Bugs Bunny say one lump or two.

Same here. Boy, they didn't know what they were asking for

http://www.clovegarden.com/ingred/fu_blackz.html

I've had that in ramen, it's nice.

canned tamales

from Hormel??

nothing weird about wood ear

Well It seems a bit nauseating but then again so is roasted dhula

now that's how it's done

VJ please take note

could the webmaster at clovegarden.com not have come up with a different filename for that page

I guess they wanted to vent secret racial hate on a fungus page

sweet jesus

I think putting ketchup on avocado is taking the whole 'never putting mayo on anything evar' stance a bit too far.

how much of this is stuff our parents actually ate vs stuff that food brands advertised to see if they could move a few more pallets of Heinz or Hellmans or whatever during a given month

^ gets it. I saw a lot of those ads when I was a kid, but other than Chex Mix and Rice Krispie squares, I can't recall ever seeing the stuff served or eaten.

My parents / their friends / relatives certainly did serve up food like that. They'd all copy recipes from the back of food packets and send off for those '100 Fresh Ideas For Cooking With Crispbread' booklets.

Avocados are a staple of Cuban diet. Ketchup isn't, despite Reagan's reclassifying it as a vegetable.

is this post implying that putting mayonnaise on avocado is acceptable?

It's more acceptable that ketchup, that's for sure.

VINCENT: You know what they put on avocados in Holland instead of mayonnaise?

JULES: What?

VINCENT: Ketchup.

JULES: Goddamn!

VINCENT: I seen 'em do it man, they drown 'em in it.

JULES: Uuccch!

Peanut butter and ketchup on Ritz crackers or on toast. It's really good actually.

ketchup squirted directly onto hot spaghetti, with cheddar cheese also directly grated onto it

actually ridiculously delicious

chop some bacon and bell pepper in there too and that's about as gourmet as we got

Sounds like spaghetti at Hong Kong-style diners.

It’s not like tomatoes and avocados are unknown to each other (avocado and ketchup still sounds awful, of course)

Why did someone stab that poor jacket to death

mark, be honest: are you posting this five-year-old article because you're researching ancient foodstuffs you might be able to enjoy after being denied the opportunity to get a sip of the sarcophagus juice a while back

5 yr old article, 10 yr old bog butter, 10,000 yr old sarcophagous juice, i'm a slow foodie now

bury me with my dairy products as a gift to future generations

Nowt wrong with those. What are they?

I want that black chocolate one.

nothing wrong? ugh, too much cream, to begin with

1st is Pineapple cheesecake
2nd one looks like Forêt Noire but with strawberry
3rd I don't know

there must be hundreds of recipes like these in my family's drawers

Use a fork, the cream on the cheesecake is there to accompany slivers of the half-inch thick crust.

The amount of cream on the chocolate cake is more alarming, but only 1/5 as alarming as the insta-diabetic quantity of frosting there

according to this cookbook I have from my wife's grandmother, there are only three main food groups: loaves, rings and molds

xxp add something that contains eggs to some eggs!

does this belong here? I think this belongs here.
