Once again, there are few things I enjoy more than sitting down with a cup of coffee and finding a new batch of vintage food ads in your thread, Louie.
The ads with recipes for cakes, cookies and other desserts are off the plate due to my recent membership into Club Type II, but there are a couple of non-dessert recipes which can be shoe-horned into my diet.
Reply #69: For reasons that defy logic, I enjoy making a Jello entrée salad a few times a year. This ad's Egg Soufflé Salad caught my eye. A plastic wrap-lined loaf pan, a box of Sugar-Free Lemon Jello, some hard-boiled eggs and I'm on my way!
Reply #72: Tang. I loved the stuff as a little kid, mostly because scooping out a spoonful or two of powder, carefully transferring at least most of it to a glass of water and stirring like a little madman was great fun.
Reply #73: I can make these individual meat loaves! I have Spam in the pantry as well as a jar of sugar-free orange marmalade.
Reply #80: If you grew up in the tri-state area--which in my neck of the woods means either the two Dakotas and Minnesota, or Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota depending on your exact location-- and claim to have never eaten pork chops smothered in some variation of Cream Of Mushroom soup, you're lying. Or Jewish.
Also noticed some brands I don't recall from my youth: Simple Simon pies; Puffin biscuits-in-a-can; Wolf chili.
Thanks, Louie!
