Prune Whip? Cream of beet soup? Lamb patties? I’ll pass, thank you very much.
Come now, the worst of the bunch I think is the tuna and celery fondue. I haven’t even been brave enough to even look at the recipe. Lamb patties, I am used to, I think they have shown up several times, though I haven’t actually MADE them. I don’t do lamb.
