Even before the 70s, in pre-Vatican II Catholic homes, salmon casserole was a Friday night staple, as Fridays were days of abstinence

I was a kid in the 70’s and I remember almost none of these.

What's funny is people have more health concerns today than they did when these dishes were popular. I'm very healthy. Healthier than my health conscious friends. I eat quite a few of these cause I grew up with a bunch of them.
