Yummy! 😋

There were only so many colors they could reproduce back then, making everything appear weird and otherwordly.

But there is still a large component of "WTF were they thinking". I blame lead in the environment and also smoking, which killed everyone's tastebuds.

Many years ago, when I was a teenager, my mom served these to our family as a "salad." That version was a lettuce leaf topped with a slice of canned pineapple, into which was placed a banana, standing on end. At the tip of the banana was a dab of mayonnaise and a half maraschino cherry. When these appeared on the dining room table my dad, my brother and I burst into hysterical laughter because the "salads" were so... salacious. Mom told us we were disgusting people with dirty mind, but she laughed too when she figured out why we were ROFL.

Why does that "pear bunny salad" look more like a "pear mouse salad"?

on it's butt to simulate a fluffy tail. Alas, if those slivered almonds were longer, the ears would be more realistic.

LOL. You just time ripped me back to when I was ten! I used to make this for my family. I forgot until I saw this. It's still cute.
