Why is it that when I want to do something, I lose all motivation as soon as somebody else brings it up or asks me to do it?

Bizarre Vintage Recipes

A few of the recipes:

I know it sounds stupid to people today but even in the US but this was a genuine way or trying to make people emulate high class foods, some foods where new to some diets but having gelitined food or aspic foods was a way of displaying your food and how fresh or high quality it was, from a era where personal refrigeration wasn't really a thing for more than a few days.

It only became a bit of a old hat and fell out of taste once home refrigeration became easy and cheap, only bits of that food hang around in western diets today but even then they are a pale version of what we used to have, Foods like Bacon, Meat loaf and pickles and preserves we dont think of as preserved foods any more (and I'd argue modern ones wont last, like the old ones).

One of the best ways of looking at it is - Traditional Christmas meals, it was the deepest part of Winter but it was the edge of most winter stores, it was originally the Solstice that got co-opted by Christians (using the Roman play-book), before chilling and dry or climate controlled stuff is clamping and root veg responds best to that like Onions, Spuds, Parsnips and Carrots, but the dressings where always summer fruits or alike - and it was a nice big fat dump of vitimaines.

In todays age we've lot the understanding of these foods and the history around them because we've sacrificed comfort for ease, and this isnt just Christmas, or American, where we are now in a situation several generations deep where people are so disassociated from the food they eat they don't know the seasons or what's available naturally.
