Ngl that "tomato aspic" jello mold intrigues me. I could see spreading that on a saltine with some oysters on the half shell. Many of the others frighten and confuse me

The 1970s was a frightening and confusing time.

I kinda feel like EVERY time period is its own special kind of frightning and confusing. Name a decade, and I can name some horrific shit that was scarring to a generation......and then someone else can counter me with all the good things about that time period. Doesn't mean the 70s didn't have a bunch of cults, and car bombings, and oil shortages, and hostage situations.

You mean my grandma's world-famous Lime Jell-O Marshmallow Cottage Cheese Surprise?

I don't like surprises in my food. I want my edibles to be very well documented the contents of said food!
