Food, Funny
ADVERTIsem*nT
Rachel Green is the Queen of Thanksgiving. Her eccentric trifle has become quite possibly the most iconic holiday food in television history. However, there are rivals who are trying to dethrone her. When Maya Kosoff asked Twitter users to share the strangest Thanksgiving dishes they came across, many have stepped up to the challenge.
The thread has received over 7.4K likes and 1.1K comments, many of which are showcasing recipes that are so terrible, they're hilarious. Like, the "magic" tomato soup cake with a creamy chocolate frosting. Or frog eye salad. Yes, I know, the title alone sounds like this abomination tastes like feet.

Thanksgiving Day is one of the most important national holidays in the United States. While there were many events that contributed to the tradition, it is believed that it began in 1621. When the Mayflower (the English ship that transported the first English Puritans to the New World) left England in September 1620, it landed in Cape Cod where colonists began to settle. After the pilgrims’ first harvest succeeded, they planned a feast with the Native Americans. This get together went down in history as the "First Thanksgiving." In 1817, New York became the first state to officially organize an annual Thanksgiving. However, it wasn’t until 1863 that President Abraham Lincoln declared it a national holiday.

that actually sounds like a good way to make regular corn bread moist. Sounds yummy and contains no jello or pimentos

There are some retro-looking spoof recipes from a Photoshop contest. Apparently this abomination is real. God help us all.

The note at the end of the recipie is so sweet, and this sounds less horrifying than the other dishes.

It does have a particular odour that should be enough to warnpeople that it is not edible.

It feels like the recipe cards for a 1970s style sweet fruit and jello salad and a queso recipe got stuck together and someone didn't notice

Serious question: what is the purpose of tomato aspic? Like, do you spread it on toast, or just eat it like jello?

Now, if you used fresh pears, some nice double or triple cream Brie (and dumped all the other ingredients), that would work for me. 😋

I just looked it up and apparently Jell-O was very popular in the 1950’s-60’s, so it makes sense that a lot of grandparents and great aunts and uncles would be making stuff with it. Jell-O needs to be refrigerated, and back then not many people had refrigerators, so it was a status symbol to have Jell-O foods. Also, it was in a lot of cookbooks at the time, so many people just assumed that it was something you were supposed to make. The last thing was that it was a fairly fun process to do, and also it was a good way to make lots of canned foods into one thing that looked more appealing to eat. Anyways, fun thing I learned, hope it was helpful!
