Inside back covers from 1965 (l) and from 1970 (r). In the first image, the hypnotic spiral surface of the dessert yet appears earthbound, but in the second, its extraterrestrial origin is revealed at last!

Feminist scholars have finally found that missing place setting from Judy Chicago's The Dinner Party , but we still don't know who was supposed to be sitting here...

Truly, the saddest looking "Petis Fours" I've ever seen. But nothing in the whole volume pleads more desperately for love than the "Four Flavor Loaf." :P

Sadly, the triumph of body-shaming, diet-obsessed culture is complete in the new century. You are no longer allowed to eat any of these flavors, though you are allowed to glob them onto your face and legs before you shave. :/

1965 had different text than 1970. It was "Magic In A Minute." However, neither version points out that Pear Lime Creamy Whip is what William S. Burroughs would serve at a ladies luncheon, if he ever catered those.

Inside front covers from 1965 (l) and from 1970 (r). It was the trippy electric purple-pink foil effect which was supposed to let everyone know that they weren't having dessert in Kansas anymore...

Also, I think they forgot to make it taste good. :P But still... those colors! Those shapes! That "cupcake frosting" which looks like some kind of milk-fed Tribble and the citrus-y spaceship that clearly brought them down to Earth! It makes you proud, doesn't it? Double Strawberry, Lemon Ripple, Chocolate Swirl Pie (front). Triple Citrus Creamy Whip, Ribbon Loaf, Easy Frosting on cupcakes (back).

Wide lapels were absolutely a Thirties thing. The other stuff here? I'm not so sure. From September's issue of Sports Illustrated. (probably)

A fresh, delicious green salad or... cute, fluffy squares of gelatin and corn syrup. Hmmm...

Here's to the ladies who lunch, while elsewhere, a pint of beer plays "Where's Waldo." (It's a long, long way from its soulmate: the Beerwurst, which is wayyy over on the upper left side of Sausage Fest '70).Originally posted to flickr on 1/29/11.

Crowd of Drunks Packed Elbow To Elbow + Wobbly Pot Full of Hot Oil. Yeah... I don't know why this craze failed to endure, either.

It's December-ish in Wisconsin right now, but we're going to remind you what fresh fruit looks like, just in case you happen to see any lying around in the snow.

""We of the Gas Company Home service Department like your fresh and easy approach to menu planning..." Suddenly, I want to wear a ski hat and an OP shirt while cooking, and I don't know why...

"The In Mood... your mood, in your kitchen, on your patio, around your dining table with your family and friends, your meals reflect you and the life you lead..." Gotta' love that Seventies-speak. Cover of a 66-pager from the Wisconsin Gas Company.
