Watergate salad, or as we call it, "green stuff".

Pistachio pudding, Cool Whip, crushed pineapple, and marshmallows. The acid from the pineapple causes the marshmallows to partially dissolve.

>A salad is a dish consisting of small pieces of food, which may be mixed with a sauce or salad dressing. Salads can incorporate a variety of foods including vegetables, fruits, cheese, cooked meat, eggs and grains. Garden salads use a base of leafy greens; they are common enough that the word salad alone often refers specifically to garden salads. Other types include bean salad, tuna salad, fattoush, Greek salad, and somen salad.

>descended of foreign stuff
Not really.
There's a huge difference between "inspired by" and "descended of." For example, no one could correctly claim sushi to be of Lao origin, but the Japanese took their inspiration for sushi from a dish of fermented fish enjoyed along the Mekong. There are significant differences between the two and while sushi is absolutely inspired by Lao padek, it's hardly descended of it.
Similarly, nasi goreng USA is inspired by American cuisine but not at all descended of it. See what I mean?

Now, it sounds like I might be coming off as critical of those salads. I don't mean to be. Pointing out their purely American pedigree doesn't make them any less delicious. I'd guess they're delicious, anyway. I've never had watergate salad or Snickers salad or other dessert salads other than the misleadingly named 'ambrosia salad,' which is 100% ghastly.

Oh, and pudding salads are entirely an American thing. The earliest record I can find of one is 1975, a recipe created by Kraft to accompany their newly available pistachio-flavoured instant pudding mix.

[Anonymous No.6807993]

>>6807837
Well, you would be misinformed, since the entire reason it's named Watergate Salad is because it was served in the Watergate Hotel at the time of the Watergate scandal involving President Nixion, which was in 1972.
Not to mention that salad recipes involving jello and jello pudding products (mainly made with fruit, but also sometimes including meats and vegetables) date back to the 1920s. And, on that point, jello is a direct result of the desire to achieve the same effect as aspic without the time consuming process. Jello is made with bones, btw. (or at least it was for the past 100 years).
You are sorely misinformed.

YMMV, but at least for me, a salad must be 1. cold, 2. a side dish, 3. based on green leaves or boiled roots and 4. savoury.

The Watergate thing doesn't fit 2. because it's an aftermeal [dessert], 3. because it's based on a nut or 4. because it's sweet. So no, it isn't a salad for me, but who the fuck cares?

It's not a salad "for you", but it's still a salad according to the real definition.

[Anonymous No.6808521]

>>6808498
"Real definition" is an oxymoron; it's either a definition (and thus something stipulated) or something real or false.

That said, you probably meant the "common definition": from http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/salad

>1. any of various usually cold dishes: as
>1a. raw greens (as lettuce) often combined with other vegetables and toppings and served especially with dressing
>1b. small pieces of food (as pasta, meat, fruit, or vegetables) usually mixed with a dressing (as mayonnaise) or set in gelatin
>2. a green vegetable or herb grown for salad; especially : lettuce
>3. a usually incongruous mixture : hodgepodge
What I said fits nicely 1a, so no, I'm not "off" of the common definition of a salad.

No. I grew up having to visit the white trash side of the family pretty regularly. Nice people, but the food they ate sucked, and everyone over 25 years old was misshapen. No surprise, since almost everything they "cooked" involved opening cans, boxes, mixes and other similar prefab food products that were absolute shit. I've eaten enough Jell-O "salads", candied yams with fucking marshmallows and pic related to last a lifetime.

It actually makes me sad that such nice folks eat such shit food, because they end up dying young, or semi-handicapped from it. That side of the family is kinda depressing. Who wants to sit down to the table with an obese 14 year old girl who can't stop talking about how much she loves cheese? I sure as fuck don't.

None of that is true.

The earliest known printed recipe involving any sort of pistachio pudding with pineapple and the other ingredients common to 'green stuff' dates to 1975 and was printed on the inside of the carton of Jell-O pistachio pudding.

The name "watergate salad" didn't appear until sometime later. The published mention I can find it is 1978.

Furthermore, you've provided no proof. Just recounting a story and appending "lots of people say it's true!!" isn't proof.

[Anonymous No.6811250]

>>6811225
>There's nothing wrong with canned green beans tbh

Canned green beans are overcooked like mad. If you have fresh green beans all they need is a quick blanch or saute. They cook very quickly. The problem is that canned foods have to be cooked for a long time and at a high heat in order to sterilize the contents inside the can. That's far too long to get a nice taste and texture out of the beans. The canned ones have a horrid dark color and they have a mushy texture as a result of this overcooking.

To be fair, these "salad" things don't sound hugely different from trifle, apart from the fact that trifle is layered. It's just the mashing together and the implication of the name that make it strange. Put the same ingredients in nice layers and throw some booze in and it'd almost be acceptable.

I've noticed the only people that complain that others "have to have the last word" are the ones who most want the last word themselves but aren't typically well-prepared enough to have it all the time.

You and your ex aren't together anymore because you're both too argumentative to have ever been a good match.
You both need someone who's happiest knowing s/he's right and doesn't feel the need to prove it to you/your ex, that way one can have the satisfaction of knowing they're correct and doesn't need to argue about it while the other gets the satisfaction of "having the last word."

[Anonymous No.6812472]

>>6812313
The point is proof. Giving a story without any sources or names to verify it isn't proof.
Here's proof:

The earliest recipe is from 1975, though under a different name. There are no published recipes for it prior. The name "Watergate salad" didn't appear in print until the year following. No one know where the name came from.

Pistachio wasn't a food common to the US at all before Kraft's instant pistachio pudding debuted. It became something of a fad food in the 1930s amongst the American elite. After having them it in Italy and Spain, they imported pistachio by the literal boatload, but much like white truffles, they were available only to those willing to pay the exorbitant cost to have them.

Then came the war. This halted pistachio imports. Thankfully, during the surge of pistachio popularity (and before the war), W.E. Whitehouse, a botanist from California, went to Persia (modern day Iran) to collect samples that could grow in the American southwest, southern California specifically.
However, all of his samples but one failed to grow well. The one, which he named after the town he got it in, Kerman, grew well but it took over forty years before pistachio became commonly available to the US: in 1976, a full year /after/ Kraft's debut of pistachio pudding.

Therefore, it is impossible that the recipe for watergate salad could predate Kraft's pistachio pudding because pistachio was simply unknown to the vast, /vast/ majority of Americans back then. Even if they knew them, pistachios were not available to most due to their prohibitive cost back then. To make a pint of pistachio pudding from whole pistachios would cost the equivalent of $97 of today's money from 1970 to 1976, the year of the debut of the first widely available pistachio crop to the US public.

Furthermore, were there any earlier-published recipe , surely it'd have been included in 1973's satirical 'Watergate Cookbook' and "Who's in the Soup?" but neither had one.

Seafoam salad is what we call it. Some people add pecan pieces to it, too.

My mom also makes an orange tapioca one that's similar, but I hate tapioca.

Pea salad is still one of my favorites. (peas, cheese cubes, hardboiled egg, dill, mayo, vinegar, onion, fuck yes).

Oh... porcupine meatballs. They HAVE to be made in a pressure cooker (the oven produced meatballs are like comparing unbreaded baked chicken breast to a breaded pressure fried chicken breast... there is no comparison). So pressure cooker. Meatballs are just hamburger and rice. Add canned tomato soup to pressure cooker and meatballs and cook. Oh my god, it sounds so pathetic but the meat grease and tomato shit soup combine to something magical with the rice.

Also, I still make dump cakes. Get a pan and layer in order: crushed pineapple, cherry pie filling, dry yellow cake mix, diced nuts, butter, and bake. Gooey, yummy, yay.

[Anonymous No.6812820]

>>6809334
Oh man, another vote for that. I forgot about cheesy hashbrowns with cornflakes!

Another one is rice crispy chicken. Crush rice crispies and coat chicken pieces. Use plenty of oil and bake (oil + rice crispies + chicken juices turn into a magical greasy and tasty coating as well). Basically shake and bake before shake and bake was a thing, I guess. But rice crispies must be crushed and you need enough oil to get that magic reaction.

And I love green bean casserole. You can make legit versions of this dish (homemade mushroom sauce, fry your own onions), so I don't consider it trash.

The sweet "salad"s are actually pretty decent, because it's just random fruit with marshmallows and some sort of whip cream/jello. Like, it's hard to fuck that up no matter what you do. Pretty much every fruit with pudding or cream is going to taste good.

Blueberry Crunch:
Pie crust that has pecans in it forms the bottom layer. Not entirely sure if it's actually a crust or w/e. It's just some flour based concoction with pecans in it. Next is about an inch to inch and a half of whipped cream. On top of this is a thin layer of blueberry filling. Shit is fucking cash.
