Fruit Salad Dressing

One of my previous posts mentioned a fruit salad dressing from the 1950s. After a number of readers (ok, maybe just two) mentioned that it would be itneresting to make this dressing I decided to give it a go.

The recipe is at Fruit Salad recipe dressing

After making it one Sunday afternoon for the family I am wondering if perhaps mayonnaise in the 50s was made differently.

Despite the sweetness of the orange juice and icing sugar (I added extra) the slight saltiness from the mayonnaise was more than my 8 and 5 year old could bear and even hubby, who ate half his serving, God love him, didn't see it as a winner.

I chopped up fruit from the bowl and mixed it in with the dressing and while I didn't mind the taste as I found it quite refreshing, the majority wins.

LOL...thanx for your honesty. I remember seeing fruit salads show up at family functions as a kid, I can't say that I ever liked them maybe thats why they paased away when that generation did.

Ahhh, that might explain it.

Sometimes it can be a hit and miss affair with vintage food.

Thanks for your comment.
