I do know that aspic exists..but I didn't know that was a thing. I did see one instance of "aspic" in the very early 1900s but it flew out of my mind pretty quickly...looking back, I think it is aspic! (I don't know how aspic is made, and didn't realize "powdered gelatin" was part of the making process, woops).

(Speaking of which, though, I should be researching further into the century if I want to get anywhere for my history class xD (This Jell-O thing was something I side-tracked myself off of environmental stuff for x'D))

Packaged foods seemed to be err, desirable? In the past? I wouldn't know actually, since I'm reading this from some books only.

I do know Jell-O brand was around at least by early 1910s, but I had no idea it'd begun even earlier than that :o! I wonder how it took off?

What is and what is not acceptable aspic..? As in what qualifies as aspic? I'm surprised that was going on at that time :o
