PSA: if you are making any of these: 1. For the bologna cake use the red rings to stack them straight without them shifting around but take them off before icing them - failed to mention that step woop! 2. If youre making Tuna Jello - um just dont. Please just dont. 3. If you're making ambrosia salad - I heard of a modernized alternative where you add Whipping cream with cream cheese to make it more flavorful and soft so try that instead! Goodluck! ♡ haha
My Grandma used to make Ambrosia Salad all the time! She taught me how to make it when I was little. Funny thing is, for color (and extra flavor) she would use Jell-O mix, I mostly remember her's made using lime. You can also use cottage cheese in the mix (it tastes really great with pretzels/crackers). I've had the cream cheese mix a couple times too and it's really tasty, but definitely more on the sugary sweet side. Can't wait to watch the more videos like this! :)
I'd just like to confirm that the Jell-O Tuna recipe didn't call for unflavored gelatin, rather than sweetened. With unsweetened gelatin it might have been more like a tuna casserole variant, and the main thing you found off-putting about it was the clash of flavors.
@@jessicavill watching you try it was just like a hortor film, "no, nooo, dont put that spoon.in your mouth " I think canned cat food might tast better than tuna jello
Remember olive loaf? It was balogna with olives in it. My mother sent me to school with olive loaf sandwiches. My friends said it looked like butt fungus.
Hey, if you're going to be full 1950s mode with Food (minus the cigarettes and leaded gasoline fumes,) you might as well go _olive_ the way, am I right? 😎
The problem with Jelly Tuna is that it was made with vegetable "flavored" jelly wich Jell-O ceased to produce dacades ago. That mean you can't make a real good Jelly Tuna anymore. For sure it's gonna taste awfull with lime Jell-O, it's too sweet and taste fruity. I recommand doing your jelly yourself with vegetable juice (I use V8) and Knox gelatine. It dosn't taste as good but it make the job.
Well in Poland where I live you have pure no taste no colour gelatine, meat jelly (already stock flavoured with yellowish tint) and fruit jelly (colourful fruit flavoured) all in powder form. From my childhood I remember mom's fish or pork in meat jelly prettily decorated with carved carrots, leak etc, and aunt chicken leg jelly served with vinegar right before putting in on the table. Surprisingly all these dishes were really good :)
2 recipes my grandma has been making every Christmas since the late 50s or 60s. I've grown up and enjoyed these for the last 30+ years. (1) Christmas Punch 1 liter Ginger Ale + 1 liter Hawaiian Fruit Punch + 1 can frozen pink lemonade (optional- add champagne) This was originally a recipe from Good Houskeeping Magazine from back then and this is what it evolved to now. (2) Christmas Salad Fruit Cocktale + Whip Cream + Cream Cheese (not sure on the ratios but the cream cheese is whipped together with the whip cream before folding in the drained fruit cocktale. The story behind this recipe is that my grandma unknowingly and accidentally combined 2 different dessert salads at an event she went to held by a friend and then recreated it based on what she remembered. Just wanted to share in case anyone was interested in trying these vintage recipes. Enjoyl
I'm so surprised to hear that the last one was strange to yall. My family always makes that stuff at parties and it really good. Never knew it was called ambrosia salad tho. My mexican family just call it the marshmallow puddling stuff lol
I was looking for this comment. I grew up in the 80s and 90s, and we had this ALL the time. As soon as she said "ambrosia salad", I was like, whaaaaat? Is that strange now? I must be edging up into the Old People Club. Oh man.
My parents served both of those dishes among others whenever they had parties in the 50's, and their guests loved them. Now that I think about it, maybe it didn't matter what they ate after they had a few cocktails. The tuna mold was even worse than the bologna cake. You deserve a medal for making and trying them, but those of us who had to eat them as kids deserve a medal too!! Keep making these different dishes from the 50's which I have either forgotten, or tried to erase from my mind. As disgusting as they were for me as a kid, they still bring back so many wonderful memories of my family and their friends who have long passed on.
you seem so sweet! honestly would love to sit down and have you talk about your childhood. this may seem a bit weird but i’d love to give you a hug! much love
@@accioyoongi Thank you so much for the sweet words!! I have many wonderful stories from my childhood which I attribute to my amazing parents. By the way, I love your hug!!!
@@yesterdayrhapsody4913 To be fair, the Jello Tuna one may have not been made to spec. I read the recipe called for "Vegetable Jello," which was discontinued long ago. It supposedly tasted like V8 Juice, so if you ever want to make Tuna Jello, you must mix up Plain Gelatin and V8.
When you read a cookbook from back then, you realize how many types of products weren't available in stores back then. There are recipes for all kinds of things you'd never think about having to make from scratch today.
Talia DuBois Shes very brave lol. I’m not open to food, however I was raised to have a “polite bite.” Which is trying it & if I don’t like it then I won’t eat it. But I’ll try what a person made or brought me out of respect. Lol
It's so funny that you mentioned Edward Scissorhands because the very split second that you mentioned Ambrosia Salad, I thought of Edward Scissorhands!! Lol.
For the Tuna jello instead of using a flavored jello packet I would have replaced it with just gelatin so it would still have the consistency of jello but doesn't have the sweetness of it
You can use unflavored gelatin, and instead of water you can use veggie broth, chicken broth, or beef broth depending on what you're making, with the tuna? I would have used veggie broth
Not sure of other cultures, but I'm from Mexico and we add fruits, sometimes nuts, to our jello cakes! I'm very familiar with the taste of jello / x combo. So when you said tuna I wanted to 🤮🤮🤮
I didn’t know ambrosia was a weird food, but we have it at a lot of family gatherings. I don’t know if it’s just the recipe in our family, but I’ve always made it and had it with mandarin oranges and not fruit cocktail.
Feel bad for all the kids growing up in the fifties that had to eat this plastic food, is that why the kids frequented diners and had burgers so much since the food at home was inedible?
That depends on where you grew up in America. This style of eating was mostly popular in the northern and western parts of the country. My grandma remembers eating a lot of “soul food” growing up....but she’s black so.....
In England it was just meat, potatoes and two veg 😂 Sadly though the wartime offal was still in to my mum's disgust, stuffed hearts! (In the 60's but my nan still cooked the same) Edit: Forgot the brains, too!
Theory (though I know nothing of the details of this time period): lime Jello had a lower sugar content back then which makes sense with the tuna if it was just super tart and not sweet.
Growing up I had a family member who would actually bring ambrosia salad to family events. I always loved it! I think the base of hers was 1/2 whip cream and 1/2 sour cream. I even remember there being chicks of jello in it, but I may be mistaken. So yummy!
I am so glad I found your channel!!! It's suited in satisfying my love for all things 50's lol I adore that era. The fashion, the food, the way that people lived and interacted, the cars, music, and how much more genuine love seemed in those days.
I see Ambrosia salad sold at the store in the Deli case and since I was little had ZERO clue what it was haha! My sister made it for Christmas and I loved it!
So I have made bologna cake twice now and my favorite version of the recipe, is to mix in dry ranch seasoning with the creamcheese, served with ritz. Its like a dip and surprisingly good. My party guests were so surprised! It really isn't bad.
please could you try marilyn monroes snacks and foods she made? she liked things like pasta with milk and fried fruits etc as snacks, i’d love to see them ahah 💗 great video 💞✨🥺
I love everything about this video from the video itself to the cute dishes you use to... well, you! keep doing what you love on this channel cuz you are amazing at it!
I had always thought that ambrosia salad was a funky type of coleslaw xD Now that I know its seems all the more appetizing! Thank you for suffering for our entertainment
my great grandma was a mom in the 50’s and she still makes ambrosia salad every time she has a party :) i don’t really like it, but i think it’s cool how she still makes it even though it’s not very popular anymore
Food for thought... You're suppose to remove the red rim from the sausage before you stack them... The jello is supposed to be the savory sort, not sweet. Even if it says lime for flavor. It sounds weird, but gelatin is basically tasteless, so you can twist it any way you like. It's not "small percentage, who still eat it" either. It's been around since pretty much start of humanity in north, so you see it everywhere, but you just don't call it jello. Meat jello, or headcheese (I think it was that, can't recall right) is the savory one. Still good, as long as you know what you're doing.
We still eat it and love it in my country, it is widely available in stores and my grandma actually still makes it herself.When you do it the right way, you don't even need the extra gelatine, when boiling the pigs legs, the bones and cartilage help make the jelly and then you add the legs meat chunks into the mix. Takes quite a lot of time, but it is delicious! I like to eat it with a side of horseraddish, my father likes to eat his with vinegar. We call it sült, the russians i think call it холодец.
WAIT!! The ambrosia salad is still a thing here in my hometown/family. Except it’s called jell-o salad because they add strawberry or cherry jello flavor to the salad instead of the cherry flavor. If you wanna get real fancy you can use lime jello also you can add cottage cheese.
An older lady at my old work used to make the ambrosia salad with pistachio pudding mix and she called it hummingbird salad which I had never heard of before and it was so yummy’ I don’t even like pistachios.
my relatives would make ambrosia salad whenever we got together when in was a kid! i dont live there anymore but i still love it its a very good treat!
Hey Jessica have you ever thought of doing a I Love Lucy meal&desert inspirational video?So Cute, 1st meal looks good! 2nd one I hope your okay from that! 3rd looks appetizing! Fun video very interesting!❤️
I laughed so hard when she mentioned the ceviche😅 her Latina side really showed 🤣👌🏼❣️ And the last one, I have an uncle that makes it every year around Christmas time😍👌🏼 it’s the best.!!!

I remember when I was very little, me and my family, were at my grandparents house on my dad's side, along with my aunt Laura and my cousin. I remember sitting next to my cousin in this leather chair, and eating a bowl full of that pink salad in that video. But I don't remember it having tomatoes and nuts in it. But i remember having more than once servings because it was that good.
Growing up we ate "Pink Stuff" which is very similar to Ambrosia salad, it has the fruit cocktail and whipped cream but also cottage cheese (I know sounds gross but it blends in well so it just softens the sweetness instead of adding flavor) and a jello packet...strawberry which when mixed with the white makes it a lovely shade of pink hence the name.
My family makes ambrosia salad every year for Thanksgiving it was one of my Grandma's favorites she made it every year and after she passed 15 years ago we still make it to get the memory of her and we really enjoy it
My grandmother used to make the Ambrosia salad all the time, yet she called it Watergate salad and it was a bit different. She would add whipped cream, walnuts, marshmellows, a whole can (with the juice) of pineapple, and a pack of pistachio pudding. It was beautifully sweet and I loved it growing up
I wonder how you would have reacted to trying out eating bananas rolled with ham coated with hollandaise sauce all over it haha 😂😂 it's a vintage dish from the 1970
Watching her sling that jello out of the mold and into the bowl a foot away at 6:52 was the chaotic energy I did not expect coming into this “I didn’t know it was stuck sorry” 🤣 even if it wasn’t stuck it would have turned to mush being dropped into a round bowl from that high up. Better to use a plate and flip it lol
It's so weird to heard that ambrosia salad is considered a weird food no one makes anymore. I grew up eating that at family pot lucks and get togethers. It's awesome that you got to try it.
PSA: if you are making any of these:
1. For the bologna cake use the red rings to stack them straight without them shifting around but take them off before icing them - failed to mention that step woop!
2. If youre making Tuna Jello - um just dont. Please just dont.
3. If you're making ambrosia salad - I heard of a modernized alternative where you add Whipping cream with cream cheese to make it more flavorful and soft so try that instead!
Goodluck! ♡ haha

The punch sounds amazing and tropical 😍 thanks for the recipe
Christmas salad is a thing here in the Philippines. We call it Fruit Salad. We even add coconut strips and sweet kaong (palm fruit nut).
The cream cheese sounds like a good addition to make it less sickly 😊

I grew up having ambrosia salad at family gatherings it's definitely something that's still regularly served. (I'm 25 so I'm talking 90s-2000s)
4:43 kombucha girl moment 😂
An older lady at my old work used to make the ambrosia salad with pistachio pudding mix and she called it hummingbird salad which I had never heard of before and it was so yummy’ I don’t even like pistachios.
I love this idea ! Keep up the wonderful content!!!
Your chaotic cooking style is a mood
I am in school and not supposed to watch this but I really had to!!! This is so amazing and so are you!
this is probably off topic but I love how elegant your voice is ! like it’s off of a 50’s soap opera or something 💗
The ambrosia salad looks delicious!
Can I just ask - what lipstick are you wearing? That colour is gorgeous on you!! 😍😍
my relatives would make ambrosia salad whenever we got together when in was a kid! i dont live there anymore but i still love it its a very good treat!
Hey Jessica have you ever thought of doing a I Love Lucy meal&desert inspirational video?So Cute, 1st meal looks good! 2nd one I hope your okay from that! 3rd looks appetizing! Fun video very interesting!❤️

And the last one, I have an uncle that makes it every year around Christmas time😍👌🏼 it’s the best.!!!
When someone asks me how's the food 4:42
my grandma taught all my aunts and my mom how to make ambrosia salad, for me its a dish that brings up fond memories when I was a kid in the early 90s
My mom makes the fruit one for holidays/picnics. It’s good!
The last one my MIL makes every holiday, we have always called it Heavenly Hash though!
Jessica can you film a tutorial on how to achieve marilyns makeup look and also hair tutorial on the look you had in the video trying on cheap princess dresses? Please 🙏🏼❤️✨🌸💓
I remember when I was very little, me and my family, were at my grandparents house on my dad's side, along with my aunt Laura and my cousin. I remember sitting next to my cousin in this leather chair, and eating a bowl full of that pink salad in that video. But I don't remember it having tomatoes and nuts in it. But i remember having more than once servings because it was that good.
There were definitely no tomatoes in it, those were cherries lol
@@JasminMiettunen Probably were lol. I was so little that the memory is vague.
I love it how she just puts two slices of ham and says: "now that's high enough for meee..."😂
Ambrosia salad is some of the best tasting jazz I have ever had at a church dinner.
When ever I asked what was for dinner when I was a kid, my parents always said shit on a shingle. I survived to this day.
I've tried ambrosia salad before at my church's fish suppers, my sister, my grandmother, and I love it.
Ambrosia Salad is a holiday time stable for my family❤️
Growing up we ate "Pink Stuff" which is very similar to Ambrosia salad, it has the fruit cocktail and whipped cream but also cottage cheese (I know sounds gross but it blends in well so it just softens the sweetness instead of adding flavor) and a jello packet...strawberry which when mixed with the white makes it a lovely shade of pink hence the name.
Yo I love her outfit and hair style it’s so cute and vintage 🤩 😯
Both of my grandma's made Ambrosia salad for holiday meals. It was a holiday staple for decades in our family.
The jello one looks like some food from an alien planet 😂
My family makes ambrosia salad every year for Thanksgiving it was one of my Grandma's favorites she made it every year and after she passed 15 years ago we still make it to get the memory of her and we really enjoy it
*Pours the tuna jello out
me: *violently gags
thats not a sweet dish though
My grandmother used to make the Ambrosia salad all the time, yet she called it Watergate salad and it was a bit different. She would add whipped cream, walnuts, marshmellows, a whole can (with the juice) of pineapple, and a pack of pistachio pudding. It was beautifully sweet and I loved it growing up
6:34 🤢 oooh I can’t with tuna you are a tough one tryin that 💩
ikrr
The last one is honestly the only one I like! I'm 27 and I make it for Christmas with chopped up snickers in it and caramel chunks!
Jess: goes to puke
Me: gets a Lysol ad😂😂❤️
Bruh I got a pregnancy test ad. 😳
I got perfect cream ad when she was putting the cheese cream
I hate ads, OMG. Such a counter intuitive RUDE waste of time.
THE AMBROSIA SALAD LOOKS SO SO GOOD
Seems like ambrosia salad has made a comeback, I've seen it at many potlucks and events that I've attended
I was literally thinking about edward scissorhands when you were making the ambrosia 😂🤍
I wonder how you would have reacted to trying out eating bananas rolled with ham coated with hollandaise sauce all over it haha 😂😂 it's a vintage dish from the 1970
Watching her sling that jello out of the mold and into the bowl a foot away at 6:52 was the chaotic energy I did not expect coming into this
“I didn’t know it was stuck sorry” 🤣 even if it wasn’t stuck it would have turned to mush being dropped into a round bowl from that high up. Better to use a plate and flip it lol
disney needs to let you in a live action disney movie
It's so weird to heard that ambrosia salad is considered a weird food no one makes anymore. I grew up eating that at family pot lucks and get togethers. It's awesome that you got to try it.
The bologna cake sounds like it would be better with ham, because ham is just better.
Mari Dani Arjona ..OOORRRR...a steak..without the cream cheese, and cheese in a can, and just the steak, because steak is just better.
I hate ha
The second dish I think it looks so green wow I was surprised and the first dish actually looks so good now I want to try it
Ohh no I fell apart. Ohh well. She threw it out so it does not really matter
