For anyone curious, the title translates to "Good Things to Eat".
A relative of mine recently hit up one of those charity sales where there's no official prices and you pay what you want. She got this for my mom as a birthday gift (even though I'm the one who still actively enjoys cookbooks while my mom hasn't touched a single one in our collection lol). This was a really nice surprise because it's from 1964 and we don't own a whole lot of 60's cookbooks.
I took some pics of recipes that I personally found interesting (like the soup mergers, I probably would never try those personally but points for creativity). I've also never heard of a "Marlow" before so that was something new I learned.
I have no idea if this post is gonna blow up or not because some of the books I share are interesting to this sub and some aren't. Either way, I don’t gatekeep so if anyone is super interested in these recipes I attached the index at the end for somebody to shout out if there's one they want to see. Depending on how many I get I'll either write them out in the comments or make a separate post.

I don’t like wine but I am intrigued by the wine recipe.
Cela fait beaucoup de boîtes de soupe condensée et de cocktails au sherry !
Quel cadeau amusant à recevoir 🎁
I love old cookbooks so much. Thank you for sharing this.
Sometimeswhen I read some of the recipes though, I think, “No wonder people were thinner back then.” Yes, Blushing Rennie — I’m looking at you.
The soup mergers actually look interesting. I don’t see how any of them could be bad, canned soup has enough sodium it always tastes good.
The chocolate marlow recipe looked good!
I’d be interested in seeing the anchovy dressing recipe!
This book is amazing!!! More please.
The graham cracker cake and graham delight are speaking to me! I’m also curious about the baked frosting – trying to picture how that would turn out! Maybe kind of like a crackly/crumbly topping?
