Hey! My partner and I sent that book 😁 thank you so much! ❤️
Hi Lily. Yay, teamwork! And I was the Kyle that Emmy mentioned in the video! :) 1:38 I hope Emmy will make some of the recipes you marked in the cookbook you sent to her!
Thanks amazing. Thanks for sending it to her so we can have more awesome "Emmy" videos. She's an Angel. The one channel I allow my children to watch with no worries of what they will see.
Gaylord and Hancock lol
@@maxbrister9777 what?
@@angelderoche1160 their names sound a bit silly. Not meant to be mean
1950s: “how can we make fruits and vegetables both unhealthy AND unappetizing all at once.”
I wonder if they successfully got kids back then to eat veggies if in jello form??
🤔🤔
What were 1950s people thinking?
I've seen some scary 1950s jello recipes, but this one seems quite good.
@@DarDarBinks1986 jello was new and they needed to make new things to try it.....they just had to look like you spent hours making it to impress your friends
perry92964 Gelatine was centuries old and Jello was half a century old and had already been through a super-popular phase earlier in the century. What made things Jello popular in the 50's was a combination of some women staying in the workplace after WWII while many had gone home and gone back to households that more convenience devices so they were often bored. Marketing and ad agencies took advantage of this with huge ad campaigns with weird recipes using convenience food that required more time and energy to make then the foods prepared according to package directions. Like the weird Tiktok food trend, but 1950s style.
Emmy is just freaking awesome! I’m not much into wanting to meet celebrities, but I would love to meet you Emmy!!!
She's not exactly a celebrity....just a cool person with a youtube channel
@@GRa-gs8ku more than 2 million people disagree with you 😜. But I agree that she is cool! And so refreshingly genuine in a world of over-produced UA-cam personalities
She's too humble to be considered a celebrity lol
I feel the same way, I’ve got the pleasure of meeting my favorite voice actors from the anime’s I watch and luckily all of them were super kind. I’m scared to meet anyone on UA-cam or any celebrity because of the saying “never meet your heroes” but Emmy just seems so delightful
I’d rather meet her than any Hollywood celebrity tbh
"Melon has been eviscerated." Well that escalated quickly.
"Viscera" is such a great word...
Yeah, I was wondering what would top the phrase "melon cavity" for the title of rather unsettling. That did it, though!
useless comment here but I felt it necessary to mention that I happened to read your comment at the exact same time as she was saying it in the video *shocked pikachu face*
Starting to think the channel motto should be "Emmy makes it - so you don't have to!" 😂 Thank you for exploring these bizarre mid-century recipes, dear Emmy!
Yes!! Do you watch @KennieJD ? Her motto is “I watch the bad movies so you don’t hafta” 😂 if you don’t - go check her out - she’s hilarious and beautiful
Nostalgia critic beat ya to it
Take a moment to deal with the fact we're closer to mid this century than mid last century
Bizarre indeed! And totally agreed! Haha
@@jayjay-602 love her!
My chickens love melon too! I always give them the rinds to finish picking at before I compost. 😊
My dog Minnie got excited watching..
I guess she was a little *melon-Collie!*
Dad?
👏🏼
😆 love it
@passion for food... 😂😂😂😂😂
🥁
This is one of those recipes that fall in the "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should" section of the cookbook. 😂
Oh, Rebecca, no. That section was reserved for my aunt's concoctions. Like jello with cabbage. Or with peas and carrots. Shudder. This was my childhood.
In my opinion - that’s just the Jell-o section 🤢
@@sharondesfor5151 😂😂
I have this cookbook and indeed this recipe falls into that category, along with most of the rest of them.
Sharon Desfor my great aunt made green jello with broccoli and carrots when I was a kid, made me eat a giant piece of it & I threw up for what felt like days to my small child brain. 😂 horrible stuff. I still can’t eat green jello. 🤢
5:50 "Moist" is fine, lots of good things can be moist like cake! "Seepage," on the other hand, is almost never a good thing.
jenneli314 100% agree with this assessment lol
Omg the word “seepage” triggers my fight or flight response 😨
"Everything is better suspended in gel!" - People in the 50's
It doesn’t matter what Emmy makes because I will still watch. Her background and voice is just so soothing 🥺💖
i thought i was the only one😭😭
I've been subbed since 2016 or 2017. I love your videos and really appreciate the continuous uploads during this time. It's a nice stress free 10mins. I dont always comment because I watch on my ps4 but I really appreciate you.
Thanks for sticking with me through the years.💜
I can totally see this being served at some sort of church ladies' function in the 1960s, along with about 20 other kinds of Jello salad. My mom (a church lady in the 1960s) was always making Jello salads for things, but I don't think even she would have gone this far. Put chunks of melon IN the Jello, yes. But not put the Jello in the melon. (I loved Jello as a kid, but despised Jello salads unless they had the little colored marshmallows in them.)
I remember coming home from school to my Grandmother's bridge club over, and there was a beautiful cherry jello dessert. I got me a bowl, went upstairs to start homework and I took a bite, IT WAS TOMATO JELLO!🍅😣 I have our churches cookbooks with everyone's recipes from the 50s-80s! Her recipe in one was mint chocolate chip meringue cookies....i miss her so much!
@@cristinarnold this was too funny! tomato?! i feel like you captured your horror so well lol
My first thought was that I'm going to die if that is mayo 🤮
😂😂😂
@@emmymade LOL'ING TOO🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was hoping it was cool whip! That might actually be pretty good. Maybe it wouldn't stick as well to the melon? LOL
But at the tine it probably should have been Miracle Whip.
Would not be surprised if that was the case honestly
This would make an amazing giant eyeball to serve at a Halloween party for kids. Draw some red veins on the outside maybe by swirling some food coloring. Giant zombie eye!
The bit at the end is a thing I think about a lot for your videos, Emmy. Sometimes when you have that prepared item, now you have two. And they aren't always things you're super excited to have two of. 😂
Me too!
Compost is a thing.
I used The Joys of Jello book many times in the 60's and 70's!
That's awesome 💚
I don’t know if you’ve made this or would want to. But I’m curious to see you make mead, since it’s like a honey wine. I’m curious to make it but all the recipes are in bulk. And since you have bees, I thought it’d be something cool
This is another moment like: Emmy's husband open the fridge's door and say: "Huunn.. Why in the world there are a skinless melon crucified with toothpicks in our frigde?"
It needs to relent for its sins
Lol
XD the use of the word crucified have never made me laugh before especially not as much as I am now
Prob not the weirdest exclamation Mr Emmy has uttered when opening the fridge tho 😂
Her husband was probably thinking:
"Hmm, must be Tuesday again"
I could totally see Kevin Arnold’s mom from the Wonder Years making this! 😂😂
I've literally heard every single Kevin Arnold joke in the world 🤦🏼♀️😂 my name is Cristin Arnold, and that show was #1 when I was a kid🤷🏼♀️🤣💚✌
5:41 ...for a second, JUST A SECOND, I thought we were gonna get a WAP reference.
The way Emmy speaks is so calming ✨
Emmy the way you describe the taste of things is hugely inspiring to me. Describing flavors and emotions behind them is such a unique talent and it impresses me every time!
I hear “retro” and I automatically think you’ll be using mayonnaise, fruit cocktail, or jello 🤢😆
And on this channel, the answer is YES
Me too, the first thing I thought of was Miracle Whip.
2/3 isn't bad😂😂😂😂
All make me queesy
Don’t forget about oddly ham on everthing or the random use of banana
The pulpy, moist, eviscerated melon!! Someone had to, I hope I was the first..
I dont know if this is a Texas thing or if others do it but my dad used to cut a cantaloupe in half scoop out the seeds and put vanilla ice cream in the cantaloupe. It was natures ice cream bowl. I just remember it being the best treat.
So they just kinda did what they wanted with jell-o back in the day, huh?
I feel like it was more that they just did EVERYTHING with Jell-O
Same with mayo I guess🤷♀️
(Also, apparently everything with more than 2 ingredients qualified as a salad)
😂😂
it was sort of everywhere even in the nineties, I ate quite a bit of jell-o as a kid, and I have no idea why, it's really kind of gross, isn't it? in Hungary where I currently live (I spent my childhood in the US) it's not really a thing unless it's on a specific dessert where it's fruits suspended in the stuff over a spongecake and in jelly-filled xmas candies which is like a thick jell-o surrounded by powdered sugar and a layer of chocolate, both are kind of weird but not objectively awful lol
Actually gelatin towers were the centerpieces of dinners as early as 1910s up to the 70s. Also, gelatin and ice cream were seen as dessert of affluent people back in the day. Actually, on the dinner menu of the Titanic the night it sank, they ate a gelatin with peaches and french vanilla ice cream as tenth course (dessert) along with waldorf pudding.
"It's melon season!" Rock!
This whole video is Emmy quietly going "what the heck is this recipe" while remaining amazingly positive
As a French, everything seems wrong with this recipe x) - always a pleasure watching you anyways!
As an American I concur.
I hate cantalope and fruit coctail. Jello depends on the application. Love cream cheese, but not on fruit. This is a combination concocted by a drunk/stoned college student with the midnight munchies.
@@sarahtaylor4264 hahaha so true !
I'm shocked that the frosty part didn't contain Miracle Whip or Cool Whip. Is that even allowed in a retro jello recipe?
😂😂😂
I got a mayo ad pop up halfway through. Even the ad breaks know what this recipe needs..
I was kimda excited for miracle whip lmfaosmnasn
I think this is what an alien would recreate if they saw a picture of a ham on a dinner table. The glamour shots were so out of this world but somehow aesthetically pleasing.
I REALLY like your profile pic 👉👈 its **chefs kiss**
@Matthew Levi Thank you! It’s from Junji Ito’s Tomie series (if you’re into manga). She’s the titular character. His art is both beautiful and unsettling.
I love when something turns out right and you get so aggressive with your excitement. 😂🥰 You are so awesome also. Dont be crude at the dinner table! 😂
Yay!!! Hello my lovely! These retro recipes are my absolute favorite! My favorite was the potted meat pineapple!!
She says hello my beautiful lovelies
Oh, my goodness. 🍍 That was a special recipe. 😆
@@emmymade yes emmy can your child or your husband cook for us
Please do a series where you talk about any of your more interesting recipes that were actually so good you made them again 😄
I’d be curious to see how this would turn out with an extra coating of shredded or dessicated coconut

Chickens love fruit seeds. Their is a rumour that it cases them to choke, but from personal experience, over a few years of feeding them the odd mellon and pepper seeds, I haven't noticed any problems.
I have heard of stories of chickens choking on corn seeds though.
I want Emmy to be my mom the stuff she makes always look so good 🤤
Emmy, on the odd chance that you see this I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate you and your videos. You're the one channel I trust for my children to watch with no worries of what they see.
Thank you for that. We all love your videos, and sit as a family and watch them all the time.
One of my sons first words was "Emmy", yes im being serious lolol. He only knows about 15 words and your name is one of them 😂😂 you also have my older son saying "so stinking cute" ALL THE TIME. Lol.
Love your biggest fans, Angel, Kaz, Alaskah, and Ayden. Xo
omg i love the notes about items in the background.
I saw you on an ad today. A real ad. Way to go Emmy! I wasn't looking at the screen when it started but I recognized your voice immediately.
Watching your videos is such a comfort for me. You're always so positive, thank you do much for your content :)
Emmy I love your confidence and open mind. You are opened to try different things and I find it amazing.
Can you try Kool aid pickles or Kool aid pie?
Here you go: ua-cam.com/video/pDmbQEo-7dU/v-deo.html.
Thanks😏
Wait ..what is Kool Aid PIE?
@@adambrickley9088 Kool aid mixed with whipped cream inside of a gram cracker crust.
That's awesome. Also, has Ellie ever done picked Watermelon rind?
Emmy: How are you, it's so good to see you!
Me: *sobbing* :'D
watching your video brings much joy to my day - currently struggling with Oregon forest fires and these videos allow me to look forward to something -w-
I would love to know what the people were tripping on the 1950's to make this stuff😜
I think they were snorting the jello powder.
Ahem- really, really bored housewives
Coca-cola when they weren’t skimping on the coca..
Ketamine
Imagine 2020 quarantine but for only women.. that is what the 50s were like for women, lol. We were nothing but housewives and mothers.. and the occasional sex worker at the local brothel. If we didnt have UA-cam and all of these other things to keep us entertained these last 8 months, we too would be making the weirdest of shit. 😂
I absolutely love this channel! 2020 is filled with such negativity and awful things. It’s so refreshing to have a safe place for such positivity and happiness!
The word I've heard used is "Squelchie".
Hey emmy! Those seedy and syrupy thing you removed from the middle of the melon can be used to make a refreshing melon juice. Just mix it in with water and add some sugar syrup and serve on ice. You can even add some melon shavings to add some "pulpiness" to it.
"Holy Jiminy Crickets!" Emmy! Language! 😆 My chickens are also fond of Melons. Thanks for the great video! 🐔🍈
Equines also really love the rinds!
You are one of my favorite youtubers.....I love your reactions when a plan comes together !!!
As a child, we had Jello with fruit cocktail very often. We called it Jello with friends. We sealed it in tupperware and every now and them we'd grab the bowl and shake it vigorously, finally letting it set up. It was great. Momma liked to mix cottage cheese and lime Jello. She rarely had competition for that, however! lol
Such a weird combination of flavors, haha they had really weird recipes back then! So much jello!
Thanks for the memories. I grew up with the (60's staple version) book, and enjoyed looking at the colorful pages. Try Sawdust Salad sometime.
I remember seeing this book being shared around by coworkers, this was in the mid 70s.
This feels like a fun Halloween thing. Like it’s a large eye or something
I had that jello recipe book! Just a slightly different cover. I made several of those recipes back in the 70's and was recently thinking about them. I would love to make them again. They were recipes that included whipped cream. Yum!
This reminds me so much of my mum growing up in the kitchen. She was just constantly experimenting. Sometimes it was great, other times, not so much.
"Its so good to see you"
new addition to the intro?
love it, so positive
I used to make Jello all the time when my kids were growing up, especially in summer. I used the quick set method and the kids used to take the left over ice outside and put them in their mouths to slurp the jello off. 😁
Emmy, you really are awesome. Super charismatic, morale boosting and a wealth of information. Thank you.
I’m glad that human taste buds have evolved since the 60’s.
This reminded me of what my mom used to prepare for us for "desert" cantaloupe filled with cottage cheese topped with canned fruit cocktail with the smallest drizzle of the cocktail syrup
@@redbirddeerjazz yes we kids don't enjoy it
*Wow! That’s amazing! I want to try it*
My absolute favorite thing about you is how happy and excited you get when you successfully make a recipe ❤️❤️❤️
If you "iced" that with Cool Whip instead, that would be BOMB.
Love all the retro Jello recipes.
Also, would love to see an episode on Watergate Salad - the unearthly fluff on my family Thanksgiving table well into the 2000s. One of the more successful creations of the era.
This recipe looks interesting. Thank you for sharing your videos with us. You teach us and make us feel secure to try making them. However, you also have made many we just like to watch you make them. Love you share your recipe books as well!
Emmy, your retro recipes are so amusing. I enjoy them so much!! Just listening to you describe everything makes me feel like I'm right there with you tasting everything.
My grandma used to pour sausage gravy over cantaloupe slices and serve it for breakfast. I loved it as a kid-I haven’t had it in years.
Scooping out a cantaloupe, that's a WAP, that's a WAP.
I absolutely love your reactions to the.cut in! ❤
Early Squad for once!! I'm so excited. I'm legit watching this instead of,doing my college papers.
It is weird how tastes transports one back in time. Unglazed chocolate cake with warm custard reminds me of my nursery-school days where I first had it.
A melon with frosting and jello in the inside, well that’s a unique concept. You make the most interesting things
I'm just so glad the frosting wasn't mayonnaise.
This looks interesting. Hopefully it tastes good, too. These retro recipes are something else, I swear. Thanks, Emmy, for being so daring and dedicated. Sending lots of love! ❤️
the parsley totally brought me back to going to diners and supper club type places with my parents in the early 80s and there was always a parsley garnish on the plate. Also, I'm grateful that it was cream cheese on the outside, and not mayo. :)
i think food might be a good way to recall a memory because taste is tied to scent, and scent-based memories are some of the strongest we have.
This could be so cute for Halloween, with the green and orange together. Just need a little spooky decoration.
Well, today, I learned something new! 😂👍😍
Emmy: **chewes with a straight and toughfull face**
Also Emmy: **squeals still with a straight face**
You cook and prepare food so effortlessly Emmy! I hope that is at least partly due to editing or else I'll feel really bad that I'm such a mess in the kitchen 😂 Love all your videos! I always look forward to new ones ❤🧡💛🧡❤
Yessssss! Your retro recipe vids are my favourite 😊
”Pulpy.”, that's not as bad as the word that came to my mind. I thought it sounded ”squelchy”! lol
I know you said you're in R.I. - my FIL had a recipe from home you might enjoy testing, he was originally from Woonsocket. The dish is Clams suspended in Lemon Jello. For the cold liquid portion of the Jello, you substitue 1/2 clam juice and half sparkling wine. You add 12 small clams to the mix the same as you would the fruit cocktail in this recipe you've shown, partially set the Jello first. Top with creme fraiche and chopped dill and serve as a cold starter, he served his in the clam shells after it was set. Perhaps the most peculiar thing I've ever tasted.
Reminds me of those weird Kraft recipes you used to see on TV at holiday time.
Everyone’s talking about how disgusting food from that time was, but honestly, they sound so good! (Except for like, the cheese and veggie jello things, ew)
Emmy! Don't forget, _it's melon season_ ! You *ROCK* . 😉
I love when you label a random item in the background
That looks delicious! Emmy is the best youtuber on UA-cam!
Wow they sure got creative with jello back in the day! 😆
“Melon epcot center” is an accurate description
Hi Emmy! Suggestion when peeling the melon, try cutting the top and bottom a bit so the melon doesn’t roll around. Also a bread knife works well to peel melon as it’s flexible to bend around the curves of the melon. Hope that helps 😊
I learned the quick set method when I was 10. I was so amazed i took the bowl into the living room to show everyone. (Note : we had 7 people in our family.. So at least 2 - 3 packages) and sloshed half on the carpet.. Oh yeah it was Cherry.
This is the first time I have seen all these different things combined together
The sound effects!! 😂🤣😂 LOVE IT! 🖤♥️❣️
I love Emmy's little squeaks when she's eating 😊
