It's wild what people called a "salad" in the 1970s.

Nixon is the Midwestern Kwisatz Haderach. Despite being born off-world (California) and living all of his life on the coasts, he has perfect knowledge how to make the most cursed midwestern food possible, by intuition.

Serve with a whipped cream and mayonnaise mixture.

Literally the worst sentence ever put to paper, and yes, I'm including the entirety of Hitler and Mussolini's works here

Whipped cream doesn't need to have sugar. This could literally just be straight up cream that has been whipped. We do something similar for a pizza sauce at work, not with mayonnaise tho cause ew

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

I know, but the sheer boomer power of this makes me think it's Cool Whip mixed with Miracle Whip lmao

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

Most vegan whipped cream is just original recipe Cool Whip (they added milk powder in 2008, prior it had been vegan) so that is the whip I know

You're right, it's missing the topping

[-] btfod@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah I wanna see the custardy off-white of a mayo and whipped cream tucked up in the little ridges from the mold... a strange oily sheen catching the light like that of a cheap baker's frosting made from confectioners sugar, tap water, lemon juice, and some vile, decades-expired petroleum based food coloring

[-] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 29 points 1 year ago

Did the pardon cover this crime too?

[-] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 26 points 1 year ago

It just keeps getting worse and worse as it goes kombucha-disgust

Is it bad that I kinda want to try making this monstrosity? I'm so morbidly curious what this would actually end up like but I also don't want to waste food, money, & time on what's essentially a bit

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago

It's gonna taste like shit

Lemon Jell-O is the worst Jell-O, then you add grapefruit, mayo and whipped cream?

No, this is a bad idea, a true cognitohazard, solidified gastroterror

Censorship is good sometimes

THEY SHOULD HAVE BURNED THIS TO HELL

[-] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

Oh absolutely theres no way this is appetizing in the slightest. I'm pretty sure to eat this thing you'd have had to chainsmoked unfiltered cigarettes for a decade or two in order for your tastebuds to be sufficiently suppressed.

If I could make a tiny portion I'd give it a shot but I'm not wasting good food on this

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

You left out the celery

Wasn't his last meal in the WH just like orange juice, pineapple, and cottage cheese too?

[-] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

worse, it was milk, pineapple, and cottage cheese

When you grew up in the depression and then ww2 and immediately after the processed food they developed during the war hits store shelves!

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

Everything about that sounds awful

Just eat guacamole, it's infinitely better

[-] Aradina@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago

Guac aka vegan Richard Nixon avocado salad

[-] btfod@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

tastes like I already threw it up!!

[-] principalkohoutek@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Spread that on some toast and bring peace to feuding boomers and millennials

[-] WIIHAPPYFEW@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Frankly I'd call this "The Devil's Cabaret", I don't even care if that's not what it's called in English

What the fuck?

If he weren't dead, I'd go and try to strangle him myself after reading that.

[-] SweetLava@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

sounds like the shit i'd whip up omw to serve crack to an underpriviledged neighborhood down south

[-] AnarchoSnowPlow@midwest.social 7 points 1 year ago

It tastes way better if you're constantly wasted.

It gets worse... go look up the trend for Aspic in the 70s. I had an auntie who served us one just before Christmas (in the 80s, everyone else had rightly abandoned it) and trying to stomach it sent me running to the outhouse (which she also still had and was the closest bathroom to the kitchen where we were eating).

I saw someone on social media recently who actually made this and tried it.

spoilerIt's awful
