We were a hardy people back then.

I'm not sure which ones were the worst - they were all pretty horrific looking! I think I only remember the salad in jello salad one, (my mom made a LOT of fruit cocktail jello molds) athough, she may have tried the meatloaf in dough. (?)

The slice olives with a pretzel stick in them looked a little primitive, but were cute, the banana candle was down right scary and vile. Whomever thought that one up deserved to be slapped by Julia Child AND Emily Post.

TG we never had any of that at our house
.... the Meatloaf Igloo isn't that much different than cottage pie [shepherds pie with beef]

There was a lot of Jello going on in the late 60s and 70s. And I love Jello, don't get me wrong, but putting vegetables and meat things in it is just wrong.
