        My family had a copy of that letter in the late 80s/early 90s except it was a Mrs. Fields recipe. I knew exactly what it would be from your comment

    Good! We need the niche communities to start growing if we’re gonna rid the world of Reddit

      Does “tiny sublemmy of the day” exist anywhere yet? Might be a good way to discover and grow small communities.

        If it does a random sampling, 90% will be various combinations of yiff, anime, trans, femboys, and obnoxiously breasted women. There’s gotta be some curation in the lemmysphere for that to work.

            Imagine making out with someone and out of nowhere their tits are just like “You know, you should call your mother. Also the grass needs mowing.” Then they go park their car across two handicapped spaces even though they don’t have the little mirror hangy thing.

              Well, you see, this is remedied by partnering with people in the itty bitty titty committee. Neither of us are obnoxiously breasted as a result. Real-life Ds and beyond are their own pain in the ass, I can’t imagine trying to be an anime character with the physics-defying shenanigans.

              Tl;dr: our tits don’t double park the car <3

          Yeah, I believe the Reddit one was curated. Anyone could nominate a tiny subreddit, but the mods would make the final call.

    How many of them are just a recipe from a label of 1950s cream of mushroom soup?

      Townsend does a lot of Colonial meals from that era of the United States. That’s about all I got for you.

        Make sure to find other sources before believing anything he says. He repeats a lot of “conventional wisdom” and truthisms that aren’t actually accurate. He also has a pro-christian and whitewashed bias to his retelling of some things. I’d describe his channel more as historically inspired cosplay as opposed to retelling documented historical facts.

          Yeah, he’s not the best source for information of any kind really, good production values though. All you need is a slick production and people will eat up anything you say.

          I agree completely, although OP just asked for channels featuring old cooking recipes, and that is all I recommend Townsend for.

      It’s a little different, more historical content than “vintage” but Tasing History is a great YouTube channel

      Look up Dylan Hollis! He’s on YouTube and tests old recipes - be warned, he brings a LOT of personality lol. I really enjoy his videos and just picked up his cookbook, Baking Yesteryear.

      Glen and Friends Cooking does a lot of recipes from old cook books. He also does cocktails from old bartending books, if that’s your thing. He has a very warm and welcoming charm that makes for a pleasant and relaxing viewing experience.
