They suddenly had money, fridges, freezers, and access to a variety of foods – all things that hadn’t been widely available before. Suddenly people had access to things that were beyond the dreams of people just a 100 years prior.
Enter corporations willing to go “oh yeah, you know what’s great (now that you can afford it)? Cold beef soup, served in a glass. Drink up your beef!”
Early 40s/50s foods are something I’m very passionate about.
They had no concept of what flavors tasted good together so they tried everything. The biggest ideas that were latched on to were things like loafs with layers that compose your entire meal and the suspension of basically anything/everything in jello (jello actually helped food last longer, because the gelatin sheltered whatever ingredients were used from bacteria. So, naturally, you put a fish in it).
Also pineapple. It was harder to get before then so the sudden availability of it made people go nuts. Bananas too to a degree.
Welcome to the wild and wacky world of Aspic, otherwise known as meat jello.
There’s this video of a lil baby whale shark following scuba divers around because she thinks the bubbles emitted from their air tanks were plankton like I’m so proud of her.
Those ‘admissions to hospital’ are not only ‘costlier’, they are also riskier. They involve (and produce) more ‘complications’ than preventive healthcare like nutrition support.
This is my basement ceiling in the laundry room. Leaking in two spots, and the wood is going to keep getting weaker if I can’t get this fixed (again). Please donate if you can spare it.
It’s leaking even worse now. Please donate if you can.
We discovered the source. It’s the bathroom sink. So we’re temporarily avoiding using it. The bad news is that somewhere in the wall, a pipe is rotting out and needs to be replaced.
On top of that, I don’t know how I’m making the mortgage or the bills this month, and I still have about $200 in credit I need to pay off, so if you can, please donate
I’ve raised $25 so far and I really appreciate it.
I hate to ask but I currently have 120 in my checking and about $200 more in mortgage I need to cover, plus $200 for bills, and additionally, I have pending fees which will overdraw my account if I’m not careful. I get paid on Wednesday and if I overdraft I’ll be fucked out of my bills which are due on Tuesday.
Please please please donate, even if it’s only a few dollars! I really really need the help!
I’m not gonna be able to pay anything til I get paid BUT I would very much like to have an actual paycheck I can use rather than using the entirety of it on bills and mortgage. I rly don’t wanna put more on credit if I don’t have to since as it is I can’t fuckin afford my current balance of $200
