We’re a sucker for anything that’s got ‘congealed’ in the title.
And it got people sharing other weird recipes that they’d come across.
I recently found one that calls for mixing mayonnaise with vanilla ice cream.

What’s worse is “pear salad”- considered a delicacy in my southern family when I was growing up. Canned pear halves, mayo, shredded cheddar cheese, maraschino cherries 🤢 pic.twitter.com/rS1MspMScm

Did someone say “ham salad?” (I feel obliged to point out that Ham Mousse was on the preceding page.) pic.twitter.com/he7Z72Xg4M
