282. “Home Cooking” Photo Spread

March 14, 2011

Q: I am looking for a spoof photo spread that looked like gourmet food, but was instead things like “roast leg of chair”, with all sorts of household (non-food) garnish and side dishes etc. It was very believable as food without a third look. Must have been early ’70s—maybe in the same issue with “A Thanksgiving Memory”, a raunchy tale where grandma’s boobs fell in the gravy, etc. Remember it?

A: Good memory. It’s exactly the issue you thought it was in—July 1974 (Dessert).
