This is also from the Foodarama Party Book, c1959. It's part of the Valentine Dinner. Here's the entire Menu:Shrimp Cocktail
Roast Pork with Spiced Crabapples
Sherry Glazed Yams
Vegetable Medley Salad
Hot Rolls
Banana Sea Foam
Coffee
This looks a little weird, but here's the recipe for Banana Sea Foam:
1 pkg. (3 oz.) lime-flavored gelatin
1 cup boiling water
1 pkg. instant vanilla pudding
1 cup milk
3 fully ripe bananas
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 cup heavy cream, whipped
Frozen strawberries, thawed
Dissolve the gelatin in the 1 cup water. Chill gelatin, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Prepare pudding with the 1 cup milk. Combine gelatin and pudding. Mash bananas with a fork or rotary beater; blend in lemon juice. Combine bananas and whipped cream; fold into pudding mixture. Turn into a 1 1/2 quart mold. Chill in the Fresh Food Compartment of your Foodarama until firm. Unmold on serving plate. Serve garnished with strawberries. Makes 8 servings.
Of course they would have a plug for the Foodarama... That combo of flavors is a little odd. I can see lemon and strawberries, but also lime?
What are you making for Valentine's Day?

I remember my mom doing a lot with flavor combos with jello and such. Also, my grandmother. She did a lemon bisque that was egg whites whipped with lemon jello, guess you couldn't do that now. A shame, it was really good.
