Weird Recipe Origins

While persuing my many cookbooks, adverstising booklets and cooking magazines I sometimes come across a recipe where I truely wonder what the originator was thinking. Sometimes they just sound like a terrible combination of ingredients. Other times it is what I call, the ingredient that doesn't belong. This is usually a food company trying to promote the use of their product in an inappropriate recipe. Recipes that might have found favor in past decades are sometimes so out of date they seem weird now.

My collection

I have a large collection of several thousand cookbooks. I am most interested in vintage cookbooks and product adverstising books. A lot of these have recipes that we would now consider weird or odd.
