    1. I'n not sure that's a "Fanny Special", but she certainly made some horrendously-presented concoctions over the years! Jx

    1. How very unfortunate for Canada. Thankfully, these disgusting jelly-based creations were never popular over here in the UK, with the possible exception of brawn [the "poor man's terrine"], but even with that the proportion of jelly compared to meat to is not overpowering. Jx

    1. I know exactly where the cultural vamipire GaGa stole that idea from - The Undertones album All Wrapped Up in 1983.

      Thirty years before that talentless cow got all the media attention for doing similar. Jx

  7. Dear God the indescribable horror! To be perfectly honest though, I would own, frame and display that picture of the Bridal Meat Doll. That transcends horror. *Fending off Arcati with processed cheese food*

    1. The Bridal Meat Doll could only be more horrific if it was on the nightstand in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Jx

      PS Far from running away from "processed cheese food", the Madam has all-but-promised our gang a Fanny Cradock buffet, having received as a gift from my sister a whole box of Fanny's...
