Back when clocks didn't run fast, a jello mold salad was assigned to the "girls" to bring.

The T Bird table would grow heavy with many hues, shapes and size variations.

Reminds me of the killer blancmange from outer space sketch by Monty Python.

Am I the only weird guy here (am I?) who thinks that the Thanksgiving boo-fay is not complete without tomato aspic? It's tomato and it's gelled. I got one in the mold right this minute. Surrounded by lettuce leaves with a big dollop of creme fraiche in the middle, it's heaven!

My mother-in-law used to make something sort of like this. Classic 50's housewife fare. It tasted exactly as gross as it looks.

In case you don't know, or didn't zoom on the recipe, what's making that white is mayonnaise.

You lost me at jello. Not food. Not even good sex lube.

I hope those lettuce leaves aren't from the current crop of E-coli.
