I hate tuna fish so that wouldn't appeal anyway, but it still looks frightening there lol!
I love bacon but that doesn't look so great either.

I remember seeing recipes for that EVERYWHERE for a while!
I never made it, but I did have it served to me once at a friend's house for Christmas dinner.
I hated it, but I ate it to be polite.

I was very curious as to what Tomato Soup Salad could be, so I Googled it.
I kinda see what you mean. It doesn't sound very appetizing to me either.

I'm not sure if anyone else was eating this, but my mom used to make me mashed potatoes with sugar. And I'm not talking a pinch of sugar to bring out the flavor, I mean she fed me sweet, sugary mashed potatoes.
In her defense, this was way way before people realized that white sugar is bad for you. I haven't had sugar mashed potatoes since then, but my love for mashed potatoes is still going strong. -

Hmmm, never heard of mashed potatoes with sugar before.
My grandma, who ironically became a borderline diabetic later, loved to sugar things.
My mom was appalled when she saw me sprinkling sugar on fresh orange slices one day, at home.
She demanded to know where I got 'that idea'. I told her Grandma makes these for me when I sleep over!
My mom put a stop to that sugaring-practice PDQ! It took me awhile to appreciate orange slices sans sugar!

Wowza! That's a dish I have never heard of.
I always wondered who liked head cheese, I figure some people must..they keep selling it.
What exactly is a meat by-product?

ziltz is a Polish concoction but I also understand that Swedes have their own version and love it too. Meat by products, as I understood it, was muscle, fat and other stuff that were not edible. YUK !!!! It is called head cheese in the USA

I can't think of anything strange but I fondly remember
stir 'n frost
and
snack 'n cake
or something like those names. The boxes just mixed in one small container. Kids though weren't as gluttonous as many are today. One of those small cakes fed many of us with some left over. -

That must have been kinda cool!
It reminds me of a couple prepackaged foods from my youth, when microwave ovens were becoming commonplace (and wondrously viewed) in everyday households.
There was a microwave spaghetti w/sauce, sold in a big glass jar. You took the lid off, but otherwise you microwaved it in the jar.
Ghastly stuff, yet I loved it!
Same with the first microwavable cake mix. It was vanilla, and baked in a plastic pan that came with it. It even had a packet of frosting, it has multi-colored frosting balls in a white frosting base.
Like you mentioned, everyone tended to eat smaller servings of junk food then (heck you weren't allowed to eat more in my home, even if you wanted to!
)
The cake was strangely tasty, and wow whatever was in it made you hopped up with energy for hours!

The spaghetti reminded me of box pizzas we used to eat, the Chef Boyardee ones. They had them later but they seemed better during the late 0s and early 80s.
the microwave cake reminded me of those metal colored pieces that are supposed to help crisp microwave oven pizzas. They never worked. The cake though sounds interesting. -

Buitoni toaster Pizzas - I loved them but they are no longer made. You just stuck them in a toaster until they were warm. I don't think I would like them now.
I also remember all kinds all kinds of horrible jello molds, I think some of them had cream cheese or whipped cream in them, some had things like carrots and marshmallows. Lucky for me, my mother just made plain jello but whenever we were invited somewhere for the holidays, there were always jello molds and green bean casseroles (my mother never made that either.)
I will never let you part, for you are always in my heart: MJ
