AT LEAST ADMIT THAT ASPIC LOOKS KINO AF

AT LEAST ADMIT THAT ASPIC LOOKS KINO AF

I've seen dogfood that looks more appealing.

can I have some of what you're smoking? must be some dank shit.

it looks fucking dank.
i've never ever seen this in my life before though

That looks like almost a giardinera aspic. I'd have some, as long as it was served with a meat course.

woah that's aspic? it looks like fuckin shit

What is this? Vegetables encased in see through plastic?

its perfectly good normal food absolutely ruined by being stuck in jello

Jello, please stop trying to get us to buy your shitty WWII recipes.

The only good thing to come from aspic is the king crimson song "larks tongue in aspic"

>all those vegetables
What are you some kind of vegetarian dandyboy? Eat head cheese like a real man.

>aspic
LITERALLY ASS PICK
no one wants this shit

If you like aspic, you'd fucking LOVE chaud froid.

The fuck is that, I thought it was a jar of pickled veggies but then I saw that there's no jar

You can eat my head cheese any time, daddy ;^)

Is that an entire fucking corn cob in the back?

It's corn veal, very delicious.

How could that be corn on the cob? Look at the size of the carrot slices. It's a mini corn thingy they have in thai food and stir fires

It's still technically corn on the cob. It's just baby corn.

>corn veal
Excellent.

baby corn don't have a cob

Yes it does, it's just underdeveloped.

I hate this board so god damn much

>chaud froid

Really not for me. So fucking not what I could even want to try.

>be WWII vet, witnessed your friends die, partially traumatised
>come home from 8 hour factory shift
>wife presents you this
No fucking wonder spousal abuse was so common in the 50s

And yet here you are.

Why was 50's cuisine so fucking awful? I can't understand it. American cuisine of the 20's was great and of the 30/40s was austere, why did it suddenly go full autism?

Postwar economic boom meant that normal people could afford all sorts of expensiveexotic foods but they didn't really know what to do with them, hence all the bizarre experimental foods

Refrigerators became mainstream. Suddenly, people had access to a shitload of space to store cold things, so it was really trendy to eat cold food that normally you wouldn't be able to keep or make reliably in an icebox.

With the shitload of new options open, people madly tried out all sorts of weirdass combinations because they hadn't really figured out and/or decided what tasted good.
