Oh, fried spam is a staple in my house today.
Spam, it’s what’s for dinner!

The gallon jug thing cracked me up, we each had a mason jar, koolaid for the kids and sweet tea for mom and dad. Always stopped at those rural highway picnic areas which consisted of a couple of cement tables and benches and no facilities.

Everything but the Seafood Coquilles looked good to me. I like my seafood breaded and deep fried...lot’sa tarter and cocktail sauce.

And, for dessert, I’ll take a big slice of the Lime Ribbon Delight cake with a glob of vanilla ice cream.

Heck, the truth be known, our little old church ladies were still serving some of this stuff at Wednesday night potluck dinners until the COVID struck.

The ex and I would have fondue every two or three weeks.

Using her 1970s vintage enameled pot she inherited from her parents or the whatever.

Most of the 70’s looked kind of weird...that hadn’t quite perfected modern clothing....look like a lot of designs were made by people dropping acid.
Watch the tv shows from the 70’s.
Weird i tell ya.

Didn’t see anything especially terrible and I’m pretty sure I ate at least a few of these at various banquets and church get togethers back in the day.

There’s a cookbook for that: “Manifold Destiny”.

Probably outdated, given the current engines, and lack of free space under the hood...

I collect old cookbooks. I have tons, including ones from Fanny Farmer and from the Harvey House which served railroad stop meals. They were all published before cholesterol was discovered and are fun to read and try when I get ambitious and nostalgic. I also have recipes passed down through the generations of my and my husband’s families, including ones I had to force grandmothers to make in front of me while I jotted down the ingredients and estimated the amounts.

I have that cookbook too and others from 70s. You are right, nothing wrong with the cookbook, great basic recipes. Every cookbook has some questionable recipes, from every time frame.

The Frank Bean bake is pretty silly. Dump some franks and beans in a casserole dish. Bake for 30 minutes at 300. Serve

I don’t even bother to read articles like that. They can’t keep their nonsense out of anything.
