It can't be overstated how many of those recipes were some con to sell canned shit that Grandma cut out of a magazine. There's very little "in the old county we cooked like this..." that made it through the Boomer food filter. Best case scenario is it's Betty fucking Crocker.

    All my family recipes come from my male ancestors. Sure it's also various ways of making canned food work, but it's also been an evolving process since the 1800s so it's evolved from somewhat edible to outright good. All of them are trail/camping recipes for context, lots of meat, starche, and grain.
