I was going to say something similar! But use name-calling, cuz, well, name-calling can be good fun! "heathens haven't been to a church meal if they haven't had Watergate salad recently!" 😊 And most of these are still available, and some are still pretty popular in certain circles.

Add maraschino cherries, green Bell pepper, and onions with the pineapple and you have Sweet and Sour chicken. The sauce is brown sugar. vinegar and corn starch. I make this occasionally still. Served over rice.

[@julianokleby1448]

@@djg5950 I make it a LOT here. It's one of our favorites! I put different fruits and veggies in depending on what I have. It's really good with chopped dates, dried tart cherries or cranberries, onions and peppers, and I use coconut oil to cook my chicken pieces in. It gives it an almost pina colada taste. I put ketchup in the sauce along with brown sugar, white and apple cider vinegars, crushed garlic or garlic powder and soy sauce. I don't put cornstarch in the sauce usually, because I put it in the coating for the chicken (just cornstarch and eggs, salt and pepper). I dredge the chicken, give it a fast fry to seal the juices into the meat, then put it in a baking dish with the sauce on top, and bake for 30 min. at 375 until the chicken is cooked through. The cornstarch in the coating of the chicken thickens the sauce plenty, so I don't add it to the sauce ingredients. Sorry, that's all probably TMI. I do love it though, and we have it often. I'll have to try it with maraschino cherries in the mix!

[@voxveritas333]

Taco salad was not an "appetizer". It was a main course. If these prices in here are per serving, that would be pricey in 1970, unless your daddy was well-off. Shrimp cocktail, for example, was not cheap to most families back then. You have no idea.

[@lrajic8281]

So was pizza! We made the crust st home (just bread dough), and each guest brought an ingredient. Salami, ground beef, whatever you want! Avocado was practically free! And tomatoes were practically free! After baking, avocado slices and salsa!

[@kkaye76]

I had g forgotten that my mom often made Taco salad. I loved that stuff. If you lived on the coast shrimp, clams, fish & crab was actually pretty cheap. When I was a kid, I went with my dad often to the gulf, to pick up buckets of shrimp and burlap bags of crab & clams right off the boats.

[@karenholt9744]

I don't remember anything with taco in it until the early 80s. I know we didn't have tacos in our school lunches in the 70s...

[@kasahadragon9499]

Back then shrimp cocktail (or prawn cocktail where I live) was only a treat food right through into the late 90's and you only saw it as a Xmas entree or at a restaurant.

[@richardvinsen2385]

$3 a serving in the 70s was not a budget price. Adjusted for inflation, $3 in 1973 would be over $21 today.

[@yossarian6799]

My parents had 7 kids and while Dad earned enough for us to eat well, Mom kept household expenses down where possible. She says in the mid-70s, she could put together a decent dinner for around 5 or 6 bucks. Our neighbors' family owned a meat distributor so we got "in" on some good deals. I don't wanna say they were mobbed up or anything, but once a month, a half-dozen big black Cadillacs with New York license plates would be parked in their driveway late at night...

[@tommissouri4871]

His $2 to $5 or $3 to $6 budget prices forget that $6 an hour was good pay in '74. So that second example is 1/2 hour to 1 hour of your pay. Fast forward to today and a comparable $35 an hour so you are talking $17 to $35 today. His "budget" one would be $12 to $30, not exactly a budget meal.

True. My parents had 6 of us, so while we def got a lot, they were frugal of course.

[@yossarian6799]

Our Dad made a good living so we managed to eat well. Mom, though, was thrifty by nature and we 7 kids enjoyed simple favorites like shepherd's pie, spaghetti with meat sauce, lebanese chicken and rice, sausage-and-potato bake, and Irish stew.

[@lancerevell5979]

I made dinner for 2-3 days in a row for us. Cheeseburger Hamburger Helper was one of those meals. Another one was Hamburgers, made on a grill outside, and the other one was some kind of Swanson TV dinner. We got a "Poppy Red" Fondue Pot as a wedding gift though I was never a fan of cheese fondue . Swedish Meatballs and sweat & sour meatballs were always a favorite of mine when we entertained at home, along with deviled eggs. We have deviled eggs 2-3 times a year, usually with a holiday meal.

Back when people learned how to make "small talk" as a life skill by observing their elders. Now THOSE were the days. You didn't bring up anything too serious or upsetting. The rule was to never bring up money, sex, religion, or politics. You might say, "Did y'all end up going fishing last week?" or "What a beautiful sweater -- did you make it yourself?" but never "How much was your bonus this year" or "I can't stand Nixon, I can't believe anyone voted for him." There was an art to it, and when Uncle Max had too much to drink and started grumbling about "the commies" it was time to bundle him out to his car and hand the keys to Aunt Rose to get him home safely before he ruined the party.

I was over at their apartment one day and when my sister-in-law was taking care of my nephew in the other room, I had looked into their fridge to see if there was anything to drink. All that was in there was a partial bottle of milk. I asked my sister-in-law why, and she said they had no money to buy food, so they were feeding my nephew watered down milk, my sister-in-law was eating a half sandwich of peanut butter every day and my brother was eating what he could beg off co-workers at his job. I went home and told Mother and we decided to step in. I was medically retired from the Army so I had commissary privileges. I would go out there and buy baby formula for my nephew, and lots and lots of hamburger helper meals for my brother and his wife. He was eventually offered a job and so I had moved in with them for a few months to drive him to work until he had gotten enough money to make a down payment on a car. I liked hamburger helper back then and still like it. I think it seriously helped save their health and getting the baby formula out there at the base I know saved my nephew.
