    I wonder what the impact of weight loss drugs will be once they hit the mainstream. Those things are just normal (but very effective) appetite suppressants. Combine 20+ years of bad PR with a real way for people to curb their very real psychological addictions to fast food and I can actually see a future where we look back on today’s fast food like we do to whatever the fuck the 1970s thought about jell-o

      Ngl that “tomato aspic” jello mold intrigues me. I could see spreading that on a saltine with some oysters on the half shell. Many of the others frighten and confuse me

        The 1970s was a frightening and confusing time.

          I kinda feel like EVERY time period is its own special kind of frightning and confusing. Name a decade, and I can name some horrific shit that was scarring to a generation…and then someone else can counter me with all the good things about that time period. Doesn’t mean the 70s didn’t have a bunch of cults, and car bombings, and oil shortages, and hostage situations.

          I don’t like surprises in my food. I want my edibles to be very well documented the contents of said food!

      So that’s why Rugrats had an episode involving a potluck with lots of weird Jell-O recipes!

      Edit: fairly odd parents had one with a weird Jell-O too
