The Gallery of Regrettable Food
Lileks.com brings us The Gallery of Regrettable Food, a treasure trove of Dark Ages cookbooks. And by Dark Ages, I of course mean the United States from the 50's to the 70's.As Mister Lileks describes the cover page before leading us into the Knudsen's official cookbook,
"Flattened penile midsections in the upper right-hand corner are just a hint of the dairy-based nightmares contained within."
The Knox Gelatin cookbook is also well worth a gander, though not on a full stomach. Meat! Meat! Meat! is also another chilling glimpse into why baby boomers are such moody cry-babies.
And for a special treat, try 7-Up mixed with milk! I bet you have to drink it in one shot before it curdles... Fun for the whole family!
Stop reading and go!
