Talk:Candle salad

Does anyone know if people were aware how phallic-shaped it looks, during the time it was popular? (the article says from 1920 to 1960) It seems like it's fairly obvious to LDSers now that it's phallic-shaped, so it's hard to imagine how it initially gained popularity as a family-friendly recipe. Or were the less overtly-phallic variants (those without the "dripping wax", perhaps) more common? --Hirsutism (talk) 16:48, 10 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

A friend of mine served this once to at a dinner party and claimed that her mom, a devout Christian, used to serve this in all seriousness and never noticed the phallic connotations. We all couldn't stop laughing. --Sue Maberry (talk) 17:55, 11 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
