YES!!! omg this is hideous!

[queen-fiend.livejournal.com]

I think that's the most disgusting gelatine food yet. D:

[cremepuff.livejournal.com]

Sadly, I have seen this before. Lemon Jello + veggies + tartar sauce/salad dressing = YUM.

And by yum, I mean vomit.

[lexixanatos487.livejournal.com]

It sounds like vomit, just add some stomach juices...

YES!

[1girl.livejournal.com]

Ugh. If I had to rank every food I have ever heard of, this is like, bottom five, easily.

Yes

*barf*

no wonder my nana was such a scary cook

Yes

[singeaddams.livejournal.com]

Dear god, yes. Lemon gelatin full of canned veggies?

YES

[medren.livejournal.com]

Oh God, this is disgusting.

[meezergal.livejournal.com]

If it says tartar sauce or salad dressing, why does it look like it has WHIPPED CREAM piped around the edge??

yes

[emmuzka.livejournal.com]

On the lighter side, if you compare that to vomit, the jello makes it so much easier to clean!

[seamonkey-mags.livejournal.com]

YES! Canned vegetables and jelly....why god why

YES

[basking-lizard.livejournal.com]

oh god yes D: do not want.

Yes

[waitingonsunday.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes.

Yes

[my-hypocrisy.livejournal.com]

Ugh.

Oh Lord, yes.

[whoseline_wlsc]

That is the worst gelatin catastrophe I've seen yet! I feel nauseous just looking at it.

Yes

[christhawk.livejournal.com]

Lemon gelatin & vegetables? No. Just... no.

Yes

[electro-girl.livejournal.com]

Ugh, I just don't understand whyyyyy.

Lord, YES

[njbearcub1.livejournal.com]

The vegetables don't get cooked?

Any salad that has the word "salad" in quotes...

And The Veg-All people also make Layer-Pak (5 veggies in a can), for those not adventurous enough to deal with the 7 veggies in Veg-All.

Re: Lord, YES

[badfae.livejournal.com]

Oh, they get cooked. Over-cooked, being canned vegetables...and that's part of what makes this extra gross >.

Re: Lord, YES

[njbearcub1.livejournal.com]

As unlikely as I am to eat ANY veg from a can, I'm even less likely to eat them unheated. Blech.

YES

[koboldmaki.livejournal.com]

At first, I wanted to say no. But then I saw that we're taking about just dumping a can of veggies into the gelatin. Without any additional preparation. I try not to, but I can imagine the taste so well :(

oh, yes

[stefanie-bean.livejournal.com]

On the bright side, think of how few calories there are per serving (LOLOL)

Yes

[jastenreadsmuch.livejournal.com]

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME EAT THIS

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

This looks like a winner. Ewww.

yesyesyesyesyesyesyes

[koneko-wish.livejournal.com]

please excuse me i have to go hurl

YES

[veronica-jay.livejournal.com]

Gelatin - the glue that binds... anything edible.

YES

[katyamena.livejournal.com]

My mom used to serve Veg-All..something about putting everything together in a can like like made every bit have the same nasty flavor..thank any god that there might be that she never got the idea to put it in jello...

yea and amen

[3cthelion.livejournal.com]

apologies to our catholic friends, but sweet mary, this is what i was saving my vote(s) for. ugh - those mixed vegetables are always so terribly hard and bitter (i refuse to believe anyone actually likes lima beans), and these won't even be cooked! and then putting it in tart jello like lemon - i don't even know what to say. and then it had to finish with "garnish with tartar sauce." at least it didn't say "horseradish" - that's the only thing i can think of that would be worse.

YES

[tabaqui]

Dear gods, yes. 'Veg-all' is the most disgusting of canned foods, and you want me to make it into a *pie* with *lemon jell-o*??

*gag*

YES

[vix.livejournal.com]

The texture... my god, the texture that must have had.

YES

[chaosdancer.livejournal.com]

By that I mean no thank you. EVER.

YES

[mandamuck.livejournal.com]

And there's no way anyone made this, right? Pies aren't supposed to have jello, wiggly crusts that you can see through. Mother fuck.

YES!!!

[meezergal.livejournal.com]

Mushy veggies in Jell-O. UGH!!!
