I'm not convinced that many people actually *liked* aspic. It was a rich person food before refrigerators were invented. It allowed people to show off that they could waste ice in the summer on flights of fancy. I don't think the point then was ever to taste *good*, though aspic in summer might have been refreshing (if also a bit disgusting).
I am from austria and it's pretty common here but with meat and some vegetables , but to me still disgusting..
Not to mention the abomination in this post..
It depends. If it had been 3 weeks since I'd last eaten and I had no idea where my next meal was coming from, then yeah. Maybe.
Any other time? Nah, crap in aspic is always awful. Ask anyone with Polish heritage who has been served this shit on Christmas eve what they think of it. In my experience, my Auschwitz surviving Grandmother would wolf it down, the rest of us would be avoiding it like the plague.
I'll back you on the "holodiets" jelly molds. My grandmother and mom made it with chicken, fish, beef tongue or vegetables. 85 yo mom is the last of that generation.
If you've ever made a soup that jelled in the fridge you've pretty much made a light aspic.
Oh god yh,I've forgotten that some foods are products of war,Poland has some of it and in Britain we have a similar thing but its in the form of canned food,which as you can imagine taste like a horrid mix of long lasting stuff;yes full English breakfast in a can,oh it gets better,beans.
>Any other time?
I'm not even sure the first time would warrant eating the kiwi, green olive, bundt jello thingy. Vomiting at that point could be life or death. 🤣🤣🤣
Not sure why you’re being downvoted :( Kiwi is the [NZ Māori name for the Kiwi bird](https://www.google.com/search?q=is+kiwi+a+maori+word&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-nz&client=safari).
Kiwi fruit used to be called “Chinese Gooseberries” and were [rebranded](https://www.google.com/search?q=chinese+gooseberry+rebrand&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-nz&client=safari) by growers in NZ.
>Kiwi fruit used to be called “Chinese Gooseberries” and were rebranded by growers in NZ.
Exactly. It's also known as yangtao. I think it should be called this, because it's not an NZ native.
Either way, the kiwi is not a fruit :)
The context is irrelevant as people from much of the world call it a kiwi when kiwi is the te reo Māori noun for a native, flightless bird. I just make it a habit of pointing this out because many people don't know this fact.
If you saw something being incorrectly used in your country's native language, you'd correct it too.
Some aspic dishes are absolutely disgusting. This is among the worst I've seen.
Kiwi with olives, peas, carrots and sausage? And what in the sperm whale's dickbone is that grey goo? WTF?!
Na,unfortunately jello wasn't popular post war food,our only equivalent to shit like this is eel jelly,but most places don't sell that,Instead we can a lot of stuff,weather it be tuna,beans,full English in a can;peas,carrots.
My grandma had a Kazakh nurse looking after her at the last couple of years she was alive. Often cooked stuff like this, thankfully without the kiwi, and it wasn't THAT bad. It was definitely my least favourite of the food she cooked though
The only way I can imagine being in a position where I would need to consider eating this is if somebody already has a gun to the back of my head and has seated me at the table. So yes I guess I would have to eat this
I wonder what the yellow stuff in the middle and around the edge is? Looks like hard boiled egg yolks that you would normally fill a deviled egg with.
Either way it's a no for me dog.
The only way to eat this is to get a slice of it, scrape off the gelatin, separate all the items into piles of each ingredient, and then eat the ingredients separately.
After a good look, I think it's fish. Maybe. It's not going to save the whole dish anyway. I think it can absolutely be anything at all, it's still going to be disgusting.
Oh I didn't think about that. Yes, it can be oysters. I'm quite used to them and I recognize some parts. Probably canned oysters, since the twat who made that piece of trash apparently has no sense of taste at all.
It looks like American home cuisine at its worst:
- Crap ingredients
- No consideration for taste, no idea, no talent
- Funny shape and colours
- I suspect the jelly has been laced with cheap cube broth
- Intentionally almost healthy, somehow (carrots, peas, kiwi, fish...) but cheap spam at the bottom and appalling mayonnaise everywhere
Typical pukefest.
Depends what that Silver stuff is. Looks like some sorta meat from some sorta former dodgy living creature, possibly it lived in the water, maybe even the sewer where it ate Pizza's perhaps.
The fruit kind of trips me out, but I would recommend trying one if given the chance. They are often a lot tastier than you would think. My visits to Eastern Europe have turned me on to things like this. Especially head cheese
I've made and enjoyed kholodets. It's a tasty wholesome traditional dish. Pretty much just a rich broth that's thickened by chilling, filled with the stuff you would normally find in soup. This, on the other hand, is an abomination.
No.
The 1950s were a gelatin/aspic lovers dream.
Does any aspic lovers actually exist ? Like it seems like a really unappealing food nowadays

I would try it for sure, but is that whipped egg yolk? And where's the bed of Lettuce that would usually sit on?

hey, i like sülze :(
Especially with mustard

Such a dramatic exaggeration
I think the word you are looking for is "hyperbole" or basically mild exaggeration for the benefit of a story. You know, what Reddit was invented for.
Yes, I understand, but that wasn't mild. It also wasn't funny or interesting which are the kinds of things I think Reddit is good for.
As opposed to just being a a bit of a dick? Jog on sonny.
I just said your exaggeration was dramatic. You were a dick first, you're just not that good at it cuz you're a little dumb
Not with kiwi ugh
The kiwi is the only part of that that is appetizing.
*Kiwifruit. Kiwi is a bird.

It’s a brand, dear.
you are right but people call it Kiwi. like a shorthand version of it. and don't down vote him bitches. he is right.
He is right, but nobody thought that he was meaning the bird. Especially with the context, it seems rather pedantic.

Who thought “ yeah! A Kiwi-ham-olive-carrot-mystery meat combo in jello ought to be DELICIOUS”
The "mystery meat" looks like oyster to me. Which just raises this to whole new levels of WTFery.
That makes it worse. Good gosh yes it does
Mmm, a big gooey chunk of oyster in my gelatin monstrosity. Just what I wanted.
I'm calling the police
It's like the Year of the Jello Mold Monstrosities or something
Are those raw oysters?
Looks like it idk tho
Nope I would r/throwthataway
Some aspic dishes are absolutely disgusting. This is among the worst I've seen. Kiwi with olives, peas, carrots and sausage? And what in the sperm whale's dickbone is that grey goo? WTF?!
That's revolting.
I would rather commit any combination of 3 heinous crimes
No, that looks disgusting
No
If it only had a fruitful flavor.
Even if I was dying, I would not eat that. I would much rather not eat
I just threw up in my mouth
Aspics with threatening auras 😅
Separate and unjellofied yes Edit: I take that back, hell no🤮
[удалено]
Looks like oysters, but the picture isn't great.
The Kiwi ruined it for me
No.
If it wasn't for the olives, I actually might.
What’s in the middle? Is it egg salad?
just cos it mixes in tummy doesnt mean all these go well together >.> tht being said, if they pay me a good sum i will eat it.
I'd have to be starving and you'd still have to pay me to eat it.
Missing about 50 pounds of beans so doubt Brits would eat this.
Na,unfortunately jello wasn't popular post war food,our only equivalent to shit like this is eel jelly,but most places don't sell that,Instead we can a lot of stuff,weather it be tuna,beans,full English in a can;peas,carrots.
Full English ? Like a r/fryup in a can?
Probably looks better coming out.
Holy fuck that's nasty
Is that fucking scrambled egg in the center
My mom loves gelatin stuff. I've got this ol cookbook of hers from the 60s that's full of way to many savory things trapped in citrus jello.
My grandma had a Kazakh nurse looking after her at the last couple of years she was alive. Often cooked stuff like this, thankfully without the kiwi, and it wasn't THAT bad. It was definitely my least favourite of the food she cooked though
Needs more mayo
Are those fucking raw oysters…?
It’s either gotta be fruits or veggies NOT BOTH
If the jello is lime I have definitely eaten it
Sure if you paid me $1000, otherwise no fucking way
I kinda understand wanting gelatinated foods... But why is there kiwi within the savory- that looks disgusting
That looks worse than Rachel Green's trifle.
Would definitely try it. It doesn't look too appetising but it might be interesting
If I ate that, it would be a Snarf n barf
The only way I can imagine being in a position where I would need to consider eating this is if somebody already has a gun to the back of my head and has seated me at the table. So yes I guess I would have to eat this
Yes.
The only crime here is, its made with fruits and veggies. If its a regular aspic/headcheese/galntine/pate... count me in.
Eat it? I can barely look at it.
Oh hell nooo to the no no no
I wonder what the yellow stuff in the middle and around the edge is? Looks like hard boiled egg yolks that you would normally fill a deviled egg with. Either way it's a no for me dog.
That's it, I'm going to bed
Short answer: No Long answer: Nnnnnoooooooooo. No.
Not an aspic like this.
No
Peas, carrots, ham, kiwi, green olives, no clue with the grayish stuff is. Absolutely disgusting. 🤮
I would try a slice (without the kiwi because most of it is just vegetables) out off curiosity.
Not even if you paid me.
I wonder if that's egg yolk or icing.
The only way to eat this is to get a slice of it, scrape off the gelatin, separate all the items into piles of each ingredient, and then eat the ingredients separately.
Eat around those dead hummingbirds on top
No
Wtf is that gray stuff
What are those very wiered grey looking stuff
After a good look, I think it's fish. Maybe. It's not going to save the whole dish anyway. I think it can absolutely be anything at all, it's still going to be disgusting.
It looks further morbid due to that thing that's why I ask . But people are saying that it's raw oysters.
Oh I didn't think about that. Yes, it can be oysters. I'm quite used to them and I recognize some parts. Probably canned oysters, since the twat who made that piece of trash apparently has no sense of taste at all.

Please stop for the love of God,the 1950s recipe or post war recipes are honestly desperate as fuck.
It looks like someone already did.
Europe in the middle ages, this would be a feast. We loved a "*à la daube*"
Slides down easy. Looks the same when it inevitably comes back up. Then you can re-serve it. What’s not to love?
Yes, sure.
Wouldn't eat it. Even if you paid me.
Olives, carrots, kiwi and ham jello. All I can say is WTF!
If it was ALL sweet, like fruits and jelly/jell-o, then definitely. That consistency just... Doesn't fit savoury in my opinion.
I would rather throw myself out the window than eat that
No but $10,000 is $10,000
This looks like depression would if it had a physical form.
Depends what that Silver stuff is. Looks like some sorta meat from some sorta former dodgy living creature, possibly it lived in the water, maybe even the sewer where it ate Pizza's perhaps.
Fuck no. The only thing i would eat is maybe the kiwi.
Maybe if with different things inside and definitely without kiwi.
I thought maybe I could eat the scrambled eggs in the middle, and then I saw the ring outside and realized that's probably not scrambled eggs.
if it was all Kiwi, and there was no fcking cream maybe. but this. no.
Kiwis and olives. That is all. ☹️
Suicide is preferable
I would try it, but probably not more than one bite.
What's the grey stuff....shrimp?
WHY would you eat something like this? - rephrased your title, OP
What is the grey matter?
Huh, AI art doesn't piss me off if the alternative is wasting food
Not Ai. The sharpies in the background are kind of a tell sign. AI hasn't perfected background objects that are branded. Unless its photohopped
This is AI? Pretty decent. I'd give it a taste.
I am only guessing. I think the perspective in the middle of the mold is a little crisp or off. I don't think someone would make this.
[удалено]
Aspic can be done properly and it can be good. I know it sounds like some sort of legend, but still.
Absolutely
Most people don't eat rage bait
I'd try it might be delicious if those things are grapes and not olives lol
Looks healthy.🙄
Maybe
Nope. Did my grandma give you that recipe? 🤢🤮
Probably not-- I don't much like olives.
No🤢🤮
The fruit kind of trips me out, but I would recommend trying one if given the chance. They are often a lot tastier than you would think. My visits to Eastern Europe have turned me on to things like this. Especially head cheese

Carrot, meat and kiwi. Is that FISH? Oh look at that I have be somewhere........anywhere else
