This one's such an appalling combination they didn't even dare show a photograph of the finished product.

Good Housekeeping, 1935:



Gelatin, orange juice, orange sections, mayonnaise, whipped cream, and shrimp.

Where's my money b*tch?

Recipe submission -- I can keep this up as long as you want.

Woman's Day, 1943.

It was a long, long war.



If anybody wants to know, Durkee's Dressing is apparently the same stuff that today is called Durkee Famous Sauce.

Another recipe entry, STOP ME BEFORE I POST AGAIN.

Life magazine, 1941 -- you know, I think that even back then this must have struck people as parodic at best.
