In Sicily, we’d hit the meat counter at a local grocery store, buy thinly sliced mortadella, prosciutto, salami, various sliced cheeses. Then visit the bakery next door for some hot bread. Cross the street to a park and make sandwiches. No mayo, mustard, olive oil, etc...just meat, cheese and warm breadSicilian heaven.

Betty Crocker Cookbook and Joy of Cooking both have pride of place on my kitchen shelf
I got the 60’s editions that I have for all the kids as a shower gift.
They love them, we all learned to cook out of them

Oh yeah - then there was the original hamburger helper: wonder bread white bits and chopped onions in chuck.

Lime Jello with shredded carrots was always present at family reunions, way back when.

However, I have heard food horror stories from boomer parents regarding the fare served to their parents. Among them, an eastern European dish containing pig feet in a gelatinous substance. You could actually see that they were, um, feet. I have never seen the word; it sounded like cochina. Maybe that’s from the French for pig; or akin to the Italian for kitchen...maybe not since the folks who cooked it spoke Hungarian and Russian. Back in the day, when there were independent butcher shops, pigs feet were shown up front in the showcase.
I guess they were quite the delicacy, yet.

Longhorn is a style of Colby cheese. I think it’s mostly just that it’s sold in a half-round rather than a block.

It was pork. It was BIG pork. And fresh lettuce and tomatoes from the looks of it. I guess you'd make little Ritz cracker sammiches out of those ingredients.
They don't look fat, for all that food either.

In my mind, jello is for when you are sick in bed, not for the dinner tableOr a pre colonoscopy snack, in Yellow of course.
