I'm just sitting here boggling at some of these recipes

"With a fork, whip deviled ham with enough cat-sup to give consistency of thick whipped cream..
Combine French dressing with cheese spread: beat with rotary beater till smooth. Serve in separate bowl."

As if the recipes themselves weren't already unappetizing enough, they're presented and photographed in the most unpalatable way possible.
I'm pretty sure it's one of those dead art forms: the unappealing presentation of food.

the bizarre combinations and presentations that appeal to both sophistication and nutrition, combined with poor colour separation in the printing process, make the end results amazingly lurid.

Dozens of ways to cook spam. And the presentation is so weird... the pic you've linked to is typical of lots of them, food laid out like an English garden, all neatly bordered oblongs. But instead of roses or lilies, it's assmeat and mayonnaise.

it is a Canadian book after all, that burger looks like a Spümcø character

"...the illusion of an igloo may be carried farther by scoring the surface of the unmolded salad to represent blocks... Use strips of green pepper or ripe olives to outline the door."
I love the idea of choosing ingredients for a meal based upon their similarity to parts of a building.

Could have used some concentration camp snaps to really bring it on home.
