Home chefs in the 1950s and 1960s had a very bizarre idea of what constitutes a good meal.
A Facebook group called Disgusting Vintage Recipes shares some of the stomach-churning creations from around the world that seemed like a good idea at the time.
Bored Panda collected some of the most eye-watering dishes on the group which disregard the culinary rules we have been taught throughout our lives.
One recipe included jelly and spaghetti hoops topped off with sausages and olives, while another even encased the humble salad in a gelatinous disaster.
Here, FEMAIL explores some of the most shocking flavour combinations that might put you off your dinner…

Not more jelly! Another popular delicacy was tomato sauce in lemon flavoured jelly, which also included Worcester sauce for those with a stomach strong enough to try it
This mushroom stuffed plaice looks like the fish has been cut open and it’s insides are about to spill out… not the most appetising looking meal
