WWII left the world in a state of chaos and poverty. The 1950s saw people adapt to the food shortage with, um, creative recipes.
Let’s take a look at some of the weirdest and grossest foods of the 1950s.

I always thought my Mom was a terrible cook, but after seeing this, I guess she was just going along with the times.
Lmfaoo
Must've been an..."interesting" dinner table.😏
Wow! How would people rate your cooking, nowadays ? Just wondering...🤔
You never say that about your mom. Shame!

Yes, we licked our plates clean then handwashed the dishes. Seriously, food portions were much smaller and we walked everywhere. Much less was sold ready-made so most everything was made from scratch. Yes, all kids collected pop bottles to buy candies or a bag of chips. We had only one small garbage can, very little was thrown away. The dog always ate our scraps. He ate better than some people today.
hello how are you
There’s nothing wrong with meatloaf (ground beef/veal/pork). It’s delicious and is great with new potatoes roasted in the broth with onions
That sounds great...
You are correct but when you have more filler than meat, it’s cheap and so much that it’s not quite what you’re probably thinking
I agree.
Meatloaf with baked ketchup is a family favorite to this day. The others... uh, no.
Hello
Leave meatloaf alone. It's delicious.
Try meatloaf with a brown sugar glaze. Yummy
There's no way in Hell that these foods, like "Bologna Cake" were "popular dishes" in the 50s. This is the worst of the worst recipes from a few bad cookbooks. The fake 1950s footage is bad, too.
She didn’t peel the plastic from the bologna slices.
It''s a kid doing it.
Yeah, I noticed that too! 🤣
😂
Omg!! She didn’t even take the red outside liner off the bologna when she was making the cake. This was an awesome video thanks so much
Back then it was a natural animal casing (not plastic like today) perfectly eatable.
Definitely having a Ugly Sweater and vintage 50's Jello Mold Christmas party this year. Gotta make that bologna cake 🤣
If you don't post pictures and notify me, Imma be really unhappy 🤣. Oh! Don't forget to require with a 50s or 60s hair style...the housewife variety (not the teens🤣).
"Drink at least a quart of milk a day."
Dear God. 😳
not to mention eight glasses of water.
Ah, stick your milk!
lactose intolerant, I refused. Got tired of f@rtin' like a Clydesdale and then cr@ppin' my pants after a (forced on me) glass of milk. Today I have to have new pants cut off a couple inches. I'm all of 5'5" (and only 135#, btw)
Some of those gelatin dishes bring the old saying, "Just because you CAN do it, DOESN'T mean you should." 🤢🤮
These foods sound strange, but they're healthier than eating McNuggets every day.
Those nuggets contain ground up beaks and cloacas.
Actualy, no. They are not. McNuggets are healthier than you think, and these abominations are far worse for you thank you know.
If you listen closely to Pazuzu’s reverse speech in The Exorcist, you will hear most of these Jello recipes.
😆
😂🤣😆😂🤣😆
in the usa there was not any meat shortages in the 50`s
A money shortage
I love how they say “stress free” but all those presentations look very stressful to me 😂
Jamaicans eat chicken foot soup lol I used to eat it growing up and now I literally can't get it anywhere and have to beg my dad to make it lol and he refuses saying it's poor people food lol
Chicken feet can sometimes be found in Chinese buffets... but so can other nasty stuff, like roaches.
Meatloaf is delicious, especially with chili sauce (Heinz) or Heinz ketchup. My mother mixed the meatloaf with onions , peppers and breadcrumbs, eggs. Always came out delicious! I modified with ground turkey and use the Heinz chilli sauce mixed in the meat and on top. No one can tell it’s not ground beef of meatloaf mix. More healthier. Meatloaf is still a hit for most large families, cost effective and delicious! 😊
Nothing weird about regular meatloaf. Spam is also excellent.
Funny that people from those days have lived or are still living longer than people today.
Yeah all those preservatives are keeping them alive
Hello 👋
People back then were more healthy than today
We as a large family, Aunt's, Uncle's, and cousins, were all blessed during this time. We had two Aunt's that owned stores, and family members that always had large gardens, that shared. All my cousins, hunted and fished, so there was always meat. We were a Southern family so I believe we had options, people up north didn't have.
Mom used to make something called "Mexican scramble" . In a skillet brown and drain pound hamburger. Add 1 can corn, 1 can black pitted olives, some chili powder, salt and pepper .We had 1 can of Chun king for "Chinese" .etc.
Ummm...meatloaf is made all over the world to this day, so why is it weird for you?
I love meatloaf and would sell my left arm to have my mom be able to cook me one
They seemed to have a fascination of making food look like other food for some reason
meat preserved in jelly is actually an ancient thing
Great video! Our family, and I, continue to eat a few of these. lol Great memories.

Least favorite: creamed chip beef; liver and onions. Most favorite: Spaghetti and moms meat sauce.
My family used to make something called tomato aspic. Most of my family loved it. I thought it was horrendous. It was made with gelatin tomato juice with green olives and other savory veggies. It was however pretty to look at. Jello molds shaped like chickens and lobster.
The gelatin with lemon gelatin I still have my mothers recipe he’s been dead for 10 years I still wish I could have it it grew on me with age. My mom topped it with miracle whip mixed with horseradish sounds crazy but I really liked it as I got older usually had it with roast beef
