shiftythrifting

I bought this old af cookbook (circa 1902) from a garage sale. I can only look at it for maybe 5 minutes at a time because the smell of it gives me a migraine (it’s not moldy or anything, it’s just hella dusty).

At first this measurements conversion chart seemed pretty normal, but it just gets weirder as it goes on. I have yet to find the recipe that requires 150 pounds of potatoes.

The next page tells you have fast humans digest food, in case anyone wanted to know.
