20 Unholy Recipes: Dishes So Awful We Had to Make Them (flashback: 2010)
Riverfront Times ^ | 2/16/10 | Nick Lucchesi

Posted on 09/11/2018 4:59:13 PM PDT by Artemis Webb

From 2009 to 2010, freelance food writer and chef Robin Wheeler combed through old cookbooks to try her hand at recipes that had been popular in the middle of the 20th century, but had since fallen badly out of favor.

The results were inspiring .... albeit mostly in terms of what not to do.

We rounded up twenty outtakes from Wheeler's project, showing what happens when a professional chef meets the deadly processed concoctions of 1960s-era mass market cookbooks.

Yes, I know this article is from 2010. I was actually searching for an article about Hardees/Carl Jr's defunct effort to make fried bologna a staple of their menu. I ran across this article and figured bologna could wait.

Jellied Bouillon with Frankfurters

Reuben Chowder

Salmon Rice Casserole

Vienna Sausage Shortcake

These look delish. But I’m a processed meat connoisseur. And I like baloney sandwiches.

I used to eat Vienna sausage ALL THE TIME when I was in the Army. I bought some not too long ago, for old times sake. Talk about NASTY! I can’t believe I used to eat that!

I’ll do you one better, I had to take head cheese sandwiches to school for lunch. I didn’t think they were bad, we ate it at home, but the kids gave me a hard time. I was too young to understand why.

Butterfly a hotdog, full with peanut butter, wrap in bacon, and cook.

Sounds worth trying to me.

Some of the others didn’t look bad, either.
