It’s weird these jello things are “salads” in the US.
Like, sixty years ago
But-but-but America bad!
Seriously though, are Europeans so desperate to stroke their egos that they need to make fun of a trend so old it’s slipping from living memory?

I feel like a thing isn’t “slipping from living memory” when it’s still being used to the extent that non-nationals even know the usage.
Why does saying that ‘calling Jello a “salad” is weird’ mean “America bad”?
Seems like you’re a bit sensitive about this topic…
Are… are you aware of exactly how fucked up Utah is?
My great aunt put them on a bed of lettuce with a layer or cottage cheese.
We didn’t touch them either and always laughed at calling them salads too.
Probably something to do with the great depression and needing to make cheap foods interestingSomething to do with women having to make things look less lazy/not just serving ready made things, and like they put work into making food in the post ww1 period. Recipe books tended to have the crazier stuff trying to get you to use more of their other products
I think people forget how much MRE style preserved food drove the nation for a bit and why a lot of good cooking was lost for a period.
Than maximalist cooking using all theass produced food followed and it’s all atrocities for a while.
Salads are just cold foods chopped up and mixed together with some kind of dressing. I.e. fruit salad, caprese salad, egg/chicken/tuna salad, etc.
Using gelatin as the “dressing” is a regional thing. This would be called strawberry cumfart jello here, not strawberry cumfart salad.
I also think only very old people still eat this shit. Gelatin in general is much less popular among young people, who want their food to vaguely resemble food.
I mean, they’re only calories, not much else. Why would you eat that as main dish?
What…?
My problem isn’t whether it’s s main dish or not (and are you not aware salads can be main dishes?), my problem is that it’s sugary jell-o in cake form. Sort of the opposite of a salad.

“Salad” doesn’t mean healthy, it just means "item + goo
Yeah apparently we’re using very different definitions on this side of the Atlantic.
a cold dish of various mixtures of raw or cooked vegetables, usually seasoned with oil, vinegar, or other dressing and sometimes accompanied by meat, fish, or other ingredients.
The Midwest US is pretty well known for their “salads” of whatever the fuck gelatinous mess they want to throw together. It’s a loose definition of salad.
It’s fake. It looks like that so she can bring the same one to every picnic.

She knows what she’s doing.
This is ai generated right? Like someone told chatgpt to cross a butthole with a jello right? No one would actually create something this terrible?
You’ve clearly not been exposed to the wonders of yesteryears jello and aspic abominations
The butthole of yesterday always seems more delicious than the one in front of you.
(Damn, sometimes I accidentally compile a random assortment of words into something so profoundly wise I scare myself)
Maybe it was unintentional. You can’t see what the topside of your jellymold will look like before it’s inverted, so they could have tried for a floral pink effect and taking this picture shows they have a sense of humor about their failure.
Oh lawd y’all better eat that now before it molts and enters the pupal stage, because that’s when it feeds.
We used to have a jello mold like that, but we didn’t make them with the color and texture of flesh.
Now this makes me wonder what this would look like if this was made with jello like the thing in the post
Also searching for "meat baby " on Google is fun
because you were cowards?
What’s a potfuck??
That looks like a cervix
That salad better stop playin
Ah nothing quite like a cummy asshole for dessert.
The santorum cake, very popular right now
