They would eventually make you a nice apple pie to get you to shut up.
I know this is apropos of nothing, but it still makes me chuckle after all this time.
Back in the day (perhaps many decades ago) there was a recipe for a mock apple pie printed on some boxes of Ritz crackers. Not surprisingly, one of the main ingredients in the mock apple pie was a bunch of Ritz crackers.
I think a box of lime Jello would have a recipe for some kind of horrendous mixed salad set in a Jello mold back when I was a kid.
I simply could not imagine a human being wanting to eat lettuce, beets, and tomatoes inside Jello….
