[31] Salads Cookbook (Congealed)

Happy Thanksgiving – why not make a classic midcentury salad from 1969? All you need is water, gelatin, pork, spaghetti, celery, gumdrops, and of course mayonnaise. It’s all here in this absolutely deranged “Salads Cookbook” from 1969. Believe me when I tell you these recipes are utterly demented.

I couldn’t even begin to tell you where to find this book to read, but I did find a copy on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/234866473118

And while you’re at it, check out pictures of the Candlestick Salad. People really made these back then, huh? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candle_salad
