Ive heard of chocolate covered potatoe chips in ice cream, but this is just plain wrong.

What is this monstrosity? Who thought that would taste good?

Im guessing parents who were desperate to get their kids to eat their vegetables..... I can see this backfiring horribly though.

I'm glad to hear it. No child deserves being served that. The description for 'the sow trough' is pretty hilarious.

This is a fake ad

d'oh!

I had my suspicions, but looking over the ad, and given the fact that the 50s and 60s were zany times for experimenting with domestic food products, I didnt see any reason to further doubt the authenticty.

Even though this is fake---I didn't realize it until I read the comments either! It's fine for this to stay up--if you were considering removing it. I'll change the tags though.

definitely in that grey area between "too weird to be real" and "just weird enough to be real"

Considering the worrying horde of people who seem convinced that bacon is a dessert item, I can see this being a real product.

"..nature's potato, the Potato." LOL

Pretty darn real looking ad!

Strange, I thought this was famous for being fake, like the Nally's potato sauce one.

I haven't seen it until now.

What in the actual, literal…? I cannot even.
