ANOTHER 1950S PICTURE SALAD: CANDLE SALAD
Back in the 50s picture salads were popular and this one, perhaps, the most popular one of all. One-half of a banana and a pineapple slice makes an upright candle which can be trimmed in a number of ways. This version comes from Penzey's monthly magazine. An alternate version is given below; it comes from a church cookbook.
