Did anyone ever actually eat this sort of thing, or was it just the recipe book equivalent of a fashion show? Or perhaps it's just regional. I sure as hell never ate that in the 70s.

Apparently my grandparents did in the 70s and thought themselves very futuristic for it. That being said my grandma is well known as the worst cook in the family and my grandpa was known for mixing all his food together “because it’s all going to the same place anyway”…

I feel like you're grandfather would use one of those meal replacements that were developed for special forces but were abandoned for everyone but U2 pilots or something because they had the texture of wet sawdust.
