"...you'll find that the rich natural juices have jellied into a jewel-like coating that tastes as luscious as it looks!"

Gag me with a spoon, srsly.

THIS.

I almost snorfed my iced tea (fresh) all over my laptop.

AAAAAAAH!!! KILL IT! KILL IT WITH FIRE!

[badgerpdx.livejournal.com]

You jus' can't trust those fresh fruits no more...next thing you know, they'll be running of to California to git murried!

Seriously....EWWWW! There mere IDEA of "Jellied Chicken" sound DISGUSTING! And Potato chips in CANS? TIN CANS? REALLY?

[girlchild0aglow.livejournal.com]

I was hoping the canned chips were Pringle-like. Maybe if you leave the can of chips in the fridge, they'll form a delicious, jewel-like coating?

[morwen_peredhil]

Those were the best examples of yummy canned foods they could come up with? Really?

[meleth.livejournal.com]

Yes, cooking from scratch is much less healthy than eating jellied chicken from a can.

[flummoxicated.livejournal.com]

This ad made my stomach hurt!

[malana.livejournal.com]

Wait, canned potato chips? What?

[horrorsale.livejournal.com]

pringles?

[malana.livejournal.com]

I guess; I just never really thought of them as 'canned food' per se. Not like canned chicken or canned pasta anyway.

In the 80s my family used to buy shoestring potatoes in a can. They might still make them that way, actually.

[mary-shelley77.livejournal.com]

They do! I have a friend who eats them ALL. THE. TIME. It has actually becoming an in-joke at this point.

OMG! MY EYES!!! I can't unsee this. And I'm sorry, but what part of the Jellied Chicken "Jewel" is looking at me? Totally looks like a beak.

When I was a kid I used to take Jell-O and push it through the spaces in my teeth with my tounge, now all I can think of is Jellied Chicken *barf*

Additionally...Canned Potato Chips?!?! (and not just those potato straws/Pringles)

[clavally.livejournal.com]

There's a snowman in the jellied chicken. The beak is a carrot and if you look closely you'll see the round head, beady eyes and top hat. I can't unsee it!

[misstia]

omg! i went back up to look and i saw it too!!! he's trapped!!! nooooooo!!!!

It seems as if EVERYTHING in the fifties was put into gelatin at one time or another. Were there that many nags from racetracks waiting to be put down?

[jazzybabe56.livejournal.com]

just the thing for the backyard bombshelter.......UGH!

[herbadness.livejournal.com]

That's kind of what I was thinking. What the heck is an 'Eternal Triangle'? I can sort of see if refrigeration was hit or miss, and people died of food poisoning all the time..or people traveled and camped out and there weren't any diners or restaurants that people could visit.....and fresh food could spoil really fast....And I think I see a chicken wing in that cube of chicken jelly.

Someone went to a lot of trouble making mincemeat out of those radishes, too. I think canned figs and beets are just as nauseating. And that nasty spaghetti with canned mushrooms.

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

So, uh, the "love of good looks" doesn't apply to that jellied chicken, right?

[crabofdoom.livejournal.com]

I was wondering that, too. I think the whole table fails on the good looks front, but the chicken is unquestionably the greatest of its horrors.

[samtyr.livejournal.com]

Well, that killed any appetite I might have had...

[badfae.livejournal.com]

That is horrifying. "Tastes as luscious as it looks"? So...not at all, then, right?

[mystical-chickn.livejournal.com]

*opens mouth* ...
*closes it again*

Yeah, I got nothin'.

I'll get right to the point...

[singeaddams.livejournal.com]

...ew.

[whoseline_wlsc]

The jellied chicken thing is frightening. Makes me nauseous thinking about it.

BRB......puking

[queer-kitten.livejournal.com]

This, ladies and gents, makes me glad I'm already a vegetarian

[kip-w.livejournal.com]

I keep thinking of an animated cartoon where the dog is hungry for some real food, and his owner opens a can and holds it over the dish, and with a fart-like sploop, the stuff emerges from the can and glops out, still holding the exact shape of the can, including the ridges.

(The dog looks at it like he'd look at a tarantula on a slice of angel food cake, which is the only false note. Any dog we ever had would be like the ones in The Far Side: "Oh boy! Dog food AGAIN!")

Every time I see something like that, I'm reminded of this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0beNMBv7g-w).

[minniemousegirl.livejournal.com]

WHY???? WHY?!?!?!?!?!?

[twolionss.livejournal.com]

Upper right corner: 2 very cute tea-cups! Would love to have the set!

[chocoholicbec.livejournal.com]

I agree. They are adorable!

I think I'll just have some of those butter cookies, thanks.

[chicklet-girl.livejournal.com]

Somehow, the carved-up radishes make the jellied-chicken jewel even more frightening. Food: Scaring the bejeezus out of you since World War II.

[luke-russell.livejournal.com]

It's non-sensical. Buy a canned chicken to save time and effort and then spend 6 hours making radish and pickle topiary....

[seamonkey-mags.livejournal.com]

FUUUUUUUUUUCk can this please retroactively win the disgusting food contest???

[undergroundsea.livejournal.com]

Safe from air :)
