If you could just straight up buy cans of hot pho broth I'd be all over that poo poo The problem with manufacturing it is the pho only achieves its full power after everything else in the soup's been sitting in it for a little while, purely chugging the stock won't work

This takes me back. When I was a kid in the 70s the gelatin salad table at potlucks was a loving minefield. Being a kid at first you think they are going to be sweet, like jello, and some of them are. There was a sort of lime jello coleslaw that turned up pretty often that was pretty good. Then one day betrayal! This isn't jello, it's unsweetened gelatin, and it's weirdly salty, and some of those lumps aren't fruits or vegetables at all! I don't know what this is, but it is revolting. I have a huge dollop of it on my plate, I can't eat this, so I'm like 5 years old and trying to sneakily dispose of it so I can go back to the table and get something else. From then on every potluck involves peering into the murky jiggling masses trying to determine what they might be before making a commitment. Worse were the opaque ones, it might be cool whip , mayonnaise, or sour cream, but there was also a chance it could be loving canned mushroom soup. Game over man, game over. edit: Mmm, lime jello coleslaw

"Gelatin salad table" is a phrase that needs to be banished from our lexicon.

My parents used to drag me to their friend's "fondue parties" where everyone would proceed to fondue everything. Like, at least three times a month. Of course, as a little kid, the thought of getting so close to burning hot oil with raw meat was strangely enticing. Folks were fondue-ing poo poo like raw potatoes in cheese, broccoli in hot butter, and raw oysters. It was weird.  E: Just noticed the guy with the acoustic guitar. Yep, that's a legit picture. Except that it's not set in someone's Polynesian themed rec room in the basement. BlankIsBeautiful has a new favorite as of 15:07 on Feb 23, 2018 |

My mom makes Jello "Salad" for thanksgiving. The mixed fruit isn't so bad, but the walnuts are just weird man. Honestly my bigger problem with it is that it just takes up belly space that could be filled with mashed potatoes, turkey, or green beans.

my family's jello mold for thanksgiving (which my grandparents  used to make and now my dad makes it) is lime jello, sour cream, walnuts and canned pineapple chunksI like it, tho I could do without the nuts, but it's definitely weird as hell and a strange color

Apparently my great grandmother was big into tomato aspics. Mom says they weren't terrible, but it's pretty much just cold gelatinous tomato juice and she's glad she doesn't have to eat them anymore.

Am I the only one who gets a "key party" vibe every time I see pictures of people doing... fondue... things? I thought it might have been the '70s aesthetic that invariably comes with it, but no, it was still there with the brief fondue resurgence about ten years ago.

 Not much to look at from the package, but these things are awful. When you first bite into one they're very dry and crumbly, with a slightly offputting taste. Then, as soon as it mixes with your saliva, it turns into a dry, chalky paste that squeaks when you rub your tongue against your teeth. I tried dipping one into a cup of coffee and it just dissolved into mush.
