>No, that's not just a centerpiece (which I am abundantly certain would support itself upon unmolding), they mean for you to *eat* that. And having worked in the food biz, this is why you need some normal people involved in recipe development, because if you give the food-crazy free rein, this is what happens.

I found the spaghetti ad first, and went looking to see if there were any others in the LIFE archives, because the idea of a food company named something like HURFF was just too rich.

All by way of Vivat Vintage, an excellent tumblr you should be following.
This first one isn't gross food, it's just a weird ad; she's a bit too into those pickles.

( Here's where it gets gross. Jell-O, Prunes, Margarine, and some other unspeakable combinations... )

In case you aren't familiar with THIS PINTEREST PAGE, (Disgusting Recipes), you need to be. Be careful, though, it is bottomless (both in figurative horror and seriously, I've scrolled down for about 20 minutes and still haven't found the end of it). LET THAT BE YOUR WARNING.
TOP O' THE MORNIN' TO YA!
Not exactly an ad but how can I not post it?
** icon request the next time we have an icon day, please? :D
( Hot Buttered Cheer*** )
( Only prunes this tender... can make prune **** )
( When Good Things Get Together --- how does this happen? )
( Wow, this is NOT beautiful baking, not at all. )
( The Mayonnaise Lovers' Mayonnaise - the way to a man's heart )
Bon Appetit! You'll be charmed! They're "dainty". Just be sure to use the GOOD suet.
