This food is so barftacular it deserved its own thread. Each one even more disgusting then its predecessor.
Anyone hungry for some Tuna and Jello- Pie? How about Ham and Bananas Hollandaise? :yuck:

21 Truly Upsetting Vintage Recipes
 
Haha...some of them look good before you find out what they are.

I saw this on FB. It's absolutely disgusting. Like I said on FB, sometimes I see omni recipes and think "Oh this would be so good veganized." This is not one of those times.

I'm glad I never had to experience any recipes like this. I'm suddenly grateful I didn't grow up in a family that was experimental when it came to cooking and cook books were non existent.

Seen a lot of those on the Internet.

Often called "food gore".
 
I have a 1989 vegetarian cookbook and some of the recipes look a little like this :) . All vegetarian though. But the same liking of shiny loafs and weird salads.

Spam and lima beans? That had to be an end-of-the-month-cupboard-is-bare invention of desperation. "Let's take the two least-popular foods on the planet and combine them in one dish!"
