It doesn't look appetizing to me!

I agree. To me it always looked like an act of desperation for anything to put on the table.

I ordered one once out of curiosity. The waiter came back and said, "Sorry we're fresh out of..............Waldorf".

Standard holiday fare at out house when I was a kid. My father always made it for Thanksgiving and Christmas - no other time. We loved it. A few years ago, I wondered if people would like it and took it to a Thanksgiving potluck. Instead of mayo, I made a blue cheese dressing for it and added green grapes. Reaction was mixed. Most really liked it. Some obviously didn't like it at all. I wasn't surprised by the people who didn't like it - distinctly meat-and-potatoes types.

I watched that episode of the Kids are Alright last night. 1st episode I watched. Set in the 70's is a Catholic couple with 8 kids. Lots of catholic guilt. I could relate to both the catholic angle and growing up in the 70's and enjoyed the show and will probably go back and watch the first few episodes.

This was only the second episode.

I cannot help but laugh hysterically at this exchange. You get away with nada, here @ M4M Message Forum. In good spirit, we set the record straight (ahem!).

It has been suggested.

My mother loved it and made it about once a month when I was a kid. She would likely have made it more often but my dad hated it. She always included walnuts and green seedless grapes. I haven't had it in years but might have to consider including it in one of my holiday buffet dinners.

Oddly, Waldorf Salad was something that was served on a weekly basis at the college I attended. It seems like 40's and 50's thing-- too caloric for today's taste!

 

Yum,

A slip yes... of the fingers. Sometimes a typo is just a typo.

Growing up, it was a staple on the Thanksgiving table every year. It is the only time we ever had it. We included green grapes and walnuts. The tradition started with my grandmother, carried on with my mother after my grandmother passed, and now I make it. It is a good holiday memory.

Blue cheese can be very polarizing.

 

I have made this salad a few times with an herbed mayo. Lemon juice helps thin the mayo and adds a nice zing.

Who doesn't like blue cheese?-a few people from the south or the midwest

It’s actually one of my favorites. Although, in full disclosure, I’ve been accused more than once of liking “old lady food” just on principle.

Have you ever stuffed a Waldorf Salad into someone’s ass to let it ferment into a slimy salad dressing?

You're sick.

Nothing wrong with classic “old lady food”!

That's not old lady food. When I was a little kid, my mother used to have a few friends over for a ladies' lunch occasionally. She always served chicken a la king in puff paste shells. Now THAT's old lady food.

Ha! Very true.

Being an old lady, made fresh chicken a la king in puff pastry can be delicious. It takes a lot of time to make.

I wasn't saying it wasn't good. It's just the sort of fussy food you would imagine old ladies having for lunch in the restaurant at Neiman's, with tea of course and petit-fours for dessert.

Salmon croquettes maybe?

Just like that, yes.
