So there's a comfort-food staple at my house that's distressingly close to this, but sounds even worse.
It's 1 can cream of mushroom, one can cream of chicken, one can of green peas, and one can of tuna heated in a skillet. That unholy mixture is then stacked on tops of layers of toast and seasoned with lemon pepper.
It looks like the kind of food that would attack Calvin in the old comics, but my family loves it. I'm not sure how good it actually is, or if it's just the comfort food from when we were really poor and that was a feast for us.
Yeah thanks, I think I don't want any of that either but you do you
I've noticed that American recipes often have ingredients like "1 packet (brand name) (foodstuff)". I wonder if this kind of advert is how it started.
Pretty sure that's exactly how that started. Much easier to sell more of your industrially made foodstuff if you give people some ideas about what to do with it.
I fear soup over waffles is a poor example of that but I understand.
Lots of American food companies use recipes on the box to give the buyer an idea of what to make. This was a part of American food packaging going back to the Depression; learning to work with what we had was the lesson of the period. It was a time of searching for what was cheap and learning how to make it palatable.
Also quite a few packages include recipes.
TFW grandma finally hands down her secret recipe book and they're all clipped from boxes of supermarket food items and adverts in Good Housekeeping.
That happens all the time too. I've heard people more than once tell me they found out that their traditional family recipe for whatever came from the back of a box of Bisquick.
Use more of (brand name’s) stuff to sell more. That’s all there was to it. No idea why on Earth some of these were so horrendous, though.
It's just the Great Value version of fried chicken and waffles.
When all the flavor buds were covered by cigarette tar
That's not a recipe, that is bio-terrorism.
If you want to watch a fabulously flamboyant gay man cook disgusting vintage recipes check out "Eye Spy Antiques" on YT.
A lot of fun.
I was assuming you were talking about B Dylan Hollis until you got to the name of the channel.
Worth checking out?
Holy shit, thank you for pointing out this dudes channel, he is fucking hilarious. I was hoping someone would cook these shitty recipes and try them out.
Edit: "gonna taste like shit, but it's stunning" ROFL
This dude is great
Looked it up. That dude looks like he really enjoys making videos.
Lol you weren't joking. This dude is cracking himself up.https://youtu.be/3eNDNCe4rRw
Absolutely. I'm having fun watching because he is clearly having fun creating.
Chicken of the sea and waffles?
Why? Why does every old weird recipe from the 1950s and 1960s include olives?
Is this what they are referring to when they say they want to "make America great again"?
I've been watching "Sandwiches of History" on YT lately and I believe sometime in the 1980s people realized food could taste good
And they used to sit us down and scream at us until we ate every laat bit of it.
I actually don't think this would be bad. Growing up, my mom used to make tuna casserole and it was one of my favorite casseroles. Looking at the recipe, this is mostly the same, except you sub noodles for waffles. What's one carb for another? I could do without the olives though...
Expert troll, my friend. But you can't fool me.
Yeah, people do savory waffles all the time, it's just waffles with a mushroom and tuna soup, kinda think it would taste good? Like a savory pastry maybe? Then again I'm also the kind of deviant who loves olives.
might be slightly better than some of the stuff they put in jell-o back then.
also note the size of can tuna used to come in... SEVEN OUNCES (compared to the 5oz ones we've had now for like 15+ years)
But that 7oz of 50s tuna was also like 20% dolphin by weight. It's 5 ounces of tuna.
That recipe says for 4. So that’s actually not a lot of tuna per person.
I dunno. 1.75 oz of tuna on my waffle is far too much tuna on my waffle.
Tuna waffle is gonna be the next big thing.
There's worse....
Amateur night compared to creamed corn bologna boats.
I really hate that so many memories of my one grandmother were being traumatized by these jello atrocities.
Doesn't sound bad tbh..i like savory waffles. Don't sugar the dough (no idea if thats a thing, just guessing) and you are good to go
This is why we need to build the wall...! From the south Atlantic to the north Atlantic. The yankie threat can not go unabated.
Also, this is fitting punishment for the Belgians. They - and the entire world - knows they they did.
Cyberpunk 2077 has a name for food made by using other pre-packaged foods together to make something new, but I always forget the term for it. SCOP always pushes itself to the front of my mind, but that's just the basis for a lot of the packaged food (Single Celled Organic Protiens to make synthetic meats and such).
Slop, perhaps?
It might be potato waffles
I'd be willing to try it
It’s honestly not that far from a tuna melt if you think about it.
I can't remember what the movie was, but there is a scene where someone eats a tuna melt at a diner. Shortly after they go to the toilet to throw up. I can't eat tuna melt since that day.
