Knudsen's Dairy cookbook dissected. James Lileks is in rare form today as he dissects the recipes to be had in a vintage Knudsen's Dairy cookbook. Chicken Curry Salad. The recipe says “toss lightly,” but I suppose that depends on how much you eat and how bad the cramps get. The item in the middle is the Holiday Salad, although which holiday is best celebrated with tumor-studded Bruise Cake I’m not entirely certain. The item on the bottom is – well, steel yourself. Corned Beef Salad Loaf. I kid you not. Meat Jell-O. (Thanks, Stefan!) [Boing Boing 4/28/2004]
