It was done. One of the problems with these massive legacy threads is that they occasionally circle back.
I figured as much, but considering the amount of meme shit, searching around for unironic sources about "party cheese salad" is really a bit of a chore.
It's absolutely meant to be savory, not sweet at all.
This is the part I don't believe. Lime Jello Salad is fairly normal in the South even Paula Deen has one where she doesn't even cook the Jell-O just whips it into a big cool whip slop. For southerners it's green and in a bowl. Close enough to call "salad". If it were meant to be savory then it would more likely be in the aspic mold form like the Betty Crocker recipe. I really think somewhere down the line someone just got confused and mixed up the two recipes. The likely culprit is Aunt Myrna but knowing that she's still alive as Jack struggles to breathe makes me question if Jack was the one who ultimately fucked the whole thing up.
 
I remember that one, it’s absolutely fucking rancid. What was wrong with people in the 70s. Now that we’re involving other cooks we should hire cook historian tasting history to see what the true origins are and what this abomination would look like.

Aspics and other gelatin abominations became huge when refrigerators became more affordable due to it being a way to show off your wealth to the neighbors and family at dinner parties. Aunt Myrna concocting hers in the 60s/70s was just the South being slow on the draw for everything fashionable.

For a guy with five strokes, busted tendons, a dead arm, kidney stones, and collapsed vocal cords, Jack seems to really like virtue signaling to his audience about the standard American diet.
Tammy Jr kinda looks like she's lost some weight, or it all went to her tits.
All of the Scalfani grease went to her hair. That shit is disgusting. She clearly doesn't like the peeps either. Get her off camera
 
i don't understand why they would buy literally hundreds of peeps for this "test," and then freezedry them all into chunks of agate. do they think these are going to be nice treats to give away at the prison or church or churchprison? what lucky parishioners will get the half-dozen or so that tammy junior took bites out of and then put back?

I've read a couple books that have touched on the idea in places, if not in detail, one that sticks out in my mind was Orwell going over the lack of developed taste he'd found in the working class people living in industrial areas he interviewed. Picking candy apples to the real thing was an example he got stuck on, having no real context for natural food they preferred artificial tinned stuff, could only appreciate overwhelmingly strong flavours, and it was even despite the pulp and sawdust standards you saw for mass produced food in the day.
I'm sure there's better explorations of this sort of thing if you go looking for it but I do think there's something to be set for getting insight into a culture based on their diet and food preferences. Jack & his family were pretty poor when he was young and the party salad reeks of a broken culture to create it, continue eating it, and then show it to others like it's a thing people should eat.

Absolutely fucking worthless video. It's actually insulting he never uploaded the dishwasher cooking test and yet felt this absolute waste was worth it.

Not even worth shitting on it other than he deserves that dislike ratio for this piece of shit. Peeps take a good while to go bad if you keep it in packaging, much like chocolate, and it's completely worthless to "preserve" like this. At least if he made his own before freeze-drying it, it could've been slightly interesting. But nah, just an excuse to eat ten pounds of an even worse version of a garbage candy when no one is looking.

I want his freeze-dryer to make like his ventricles and clog up and fucking choke.
 
This is a job for a forensic culinary anthropologist, but Aunt Myrna's recipe could have originated as a fully savory one, maybe even from a Jell-O sponsored feature in a ladies' magazine, then been elaborated on and changed as savory Jell-O was discontinued, as other recipes were remembered, as different leftovers were available in the kitchen. Other than chemical considerations like pineapple, the historical draw of a Jell-O salad was that you can put anything in there.
I still say it was a recipe that she modified over time and just threw in whatever she wanted.

And she probably smoked meaning she couldn't taste anything.

Well that makes some twisted kind of sense now. He needs to start using the freeze dryer again to justify the purchase.

The usual intent of freeze-drying Peeps, like freeze-drying other marshmallows, is not preservation but to change the texture. Like freeze-dried Skittles or gummy candies, people sell them at twee consignment stores, craft fairs... and on Etsy. (Note that these costs do not include shipping.) 1710559185453.png
 
I dunno; comparing the 3 oz box of lime Jell-O, the ingredient order hasn't changed (dextrose and sugar being the same thing).

Snip from an article about the Rosenberg trial (so it's late '40s to 1951):View attachment 5818900

I wonder if Jell-O Corporate plays down their involvement in the Rosenberg spy case? Obviously Jell-O was innocent, but one of the smoking guns was that they used a torn-in-half Jell-O box flap to identify a contact. Lime Jell-O is up there with grape Flavor-Aid if you're making a Potluck of Infamy.
Without gram measurements that doesn't change anything. the ratio is always going to be the same. if you have more gelatin than sugar, you'll have ballistic jelly. (assuming modern ratios)
 
The guy stole a frame of someone else's video to use as his thumbnail. You can see the video controls and progress bar.
It's worse than that, it looks AI generated. The buttons on it are very weirdly disjointed and dont look like the actual buttons, plus the play button is way up top, when it's always in the middle.
 
Did jack start a steak war in the middle of a pizza war? Fighting a war on two fronts seems unwise.

Also. Do you guys remember him saying a while back that he now has a team to work on the merch? I wonder if he is actually paying someone or some company who set up this garbage AI merch shop for him. The quality seems to be shitty enough to be his own work product, but the dolphin thing is so off brand it makes me wonder.
