Feast your eyes on such seasonal marvels as potato chip stuffing, corn and mushrooms with potato chip topping, and sweet 'n sour spinach with potato chip topping! o_0

I have serious doubts that anyone outside the test kitchen ever fixed any of this.

Banana Milk Ad, 1952

Brought to you by the American Dairy Association. "Take a fully ripe banana. Simply press it through a sieve..." Then mix it with the milk by hand for an hour to get the nice, even texture shown in the picture. Don't use an electric mixer or blender, because that won't build your character. From the June issue of American Home magazine.

(L.) Please tell me somebody based a quilt design on these sandwiches. (Including the banana-liverwurst combo.) Because that would rock.

(R.) The foods-for-kiddies page also looks great, though I don't know what animal the salt and pepper shakers are meant to be. (Donkeys? A Chihuahua-Doberman mix?) Or why you'd need to salt and pepper a Banana "Junior Custard" in the first place. Some mysteries aren't meant to be solved, I guess.

The "Frosted Salad Loaf" is kind of neat from an architectural standpoint, but not surprising that it fell out of favor a long time ago. On a page I didn't include, there's something called "Mayonnaise Crisps," made of nothing but egg white and mayonnaise baked together on a cracker.

Yikes.
