In case you’re struggling to feel thankful this Thanksgiving, consider that during the 70’s, people ate things like this Frankaroni Loaf.

Feeling ungrateful for mom’s kale salad? At least its not encased in jell-o.

Did mom’s green bean casserole come out soggy? Well, at least there are no bananas in it.

Do you underappreciate vegetables? Well ... it could be worse.

Some people think banana bread is boring. But sometimes boring is good.

Even burnt green bean casserole > green bean pizzarino.

The next time you’re tempted to complain about yet another meal made out of turkey leftovers, remember this cold ham cake thing.

Dreading Grandma’s fruit salad? Is it shaped like a log though?

Speaking of fruit salad, things can always get worse. For example, there could be shrimp in it.

And really, what’s worse, store bought pumpkin pie, or whatever the heck this is?
