Gadfly22 Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 I ordered one once out of curiosity. The waiter came back and said, "Sorry we're fresh out of..............Waldorf". MikeBiDude, + lookingforfunny, + Avalon and 1 other 4
Rudynate Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 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. + Avalon, + WilliamM and + HornyRetiree 3
BigK Posted October 25, 2018 Posted October 25, 2018 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. + Avalon 1

Epigonos Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 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. + Avalon 1
Kippy Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 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, Kipp + Avalon 1

IndyGuy Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 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. + Avalon and Mhs 2

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.

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.
