I don’t know what it is about vintage, but I just absolutely adore it. By simply looking at an item, you can be instantly transported to a time you never experienced before, getting a mere taste of what life could have been like.
While I am mostly smitten with any vintage decor piece or clothing, vintage recipes are something I’m not sure I’m keen on getting a taste of…
RELATED STORIES
Check out these unsettling and questionable recipes from the past that should be locked up forever.
Hedgehog Cheese Ball
Hedgehog cheese b***s aren’t inherently bad or terrifying. When executed with patience and an artistic calm like that of Bob Ross, I’m sure they are lovely.
But this one is no friend of ours.
Vegetable Burger Cups
I’m not saying much, but all I am saying is that if I saw these at a dinner party, I would really question my friendships.
The fact that these are specifically “for the microwave oven” just makes the idea even more unsettling.
Prawn-Stuffed Apples
This is honestly very upsetting to me, and I don’t even want to talk about it.
The disrespect to apples like this…
Meatloaf Train
Choo choo! All aboard the “how about NAH” train!
You eat with your eyes first, as they say, and I challenge you to reflect on that phrase as you look at this meatloaf train from this Lea and Perrins cookbook.
Raggedy Ann Salad
Sure, this recipe is great for a tea party, that is if your children and their friends love horror movies!
Get your crystals out and light that sage if you decide to ever give this one a try.
Chocolate Hot Tub
Some people may love to envision a hot tub made out of chocolate, but I don’t think this is the vision.
Nothing seems stable in this scene. The family, the chocolate hot tub, the steps, the pretzel fence, the umbrella—anyone else just feel stressed looking at this?
Aspic
Friends, if you’ve never seen this gelatin monstrosity before, I’d like to introduce you to aspic.
Aspic is a savory meat gelatin made from consommé, clarified stock, or bone broth, and I would absolutely not call it “inviting.”
Ham and Bananas Hollandaise
Or, unofficially known as “Eggs Bananadict,” by yours truly.
Is this supposed to be a main course? I need answers.
