I remember hearing about this combination as a kid but can’t remember the context. Any ideas? thanks! ---

Hi. Welcome to the boards. A little more information would be most helpful, although I see you do not remember the context. Was it a good or bad combination: Is this combination supposed to make your stomach explode, like Pop Rocks and Coca-Cola? (Bad) Is it a supposed aphrodesiac, like green M&Ms? (Good) Were you supposed to eat the raw Kool-aid sprinkled on the bologna (or was I the only kid who ate Kool-aid straight out of the package)? In any case, I’ve never heard of this combination having particular significance. Now I’m curious, too. ---

Sounds to me like the combination would most likely lead to a stomach ache. ---

I remember that bologna sandwiches and kool-aid (not sure what flavour) were the standard fare at a Slug-fest. A Slug-fest was a concert featuring Doug and the Slugs. I don’t know where you are from Bachor, but that is a western Canadian thing, AFIK. ---

It’s still here. :eek: Okay. [sigh] Google. “bologna green”. 1. A recipe for bologna soup.

How to get there from Milan.

Bologna is good bait for Jackelopes, though it must be left with some sort of alcohol. No one’s ever caught a Jackalope with it but the stuff keeps disappearing so it’s only a matter of time. Bologna has gluten, KoolAid does not. Bologna and KoolAid are staples for starving college kids. The scars from gastric bypass surgery are AWFUL, but you can still drink koolaid. Bologna is out of the question. Sorry. ---

So I’m not sure how old you are but saying you remember as a kid whether you watched it or possibly someone in your family did it is talked about on the TV show MASH when BJ talks about how bad the coffee taste and Hawkeye says and this coming from a man who drinks Kool-Aid with strips of Bologna in it ---

Hi welcome to the board French24. However old the poster was when he first posted his query he’s 22 years older now, and so is unlikely to respondas to what he actually meant. ---

I’d just like to mention, that this appears to be the most revolting recipe ever: ‐‐---------------------------------------- Tounges on Toast 8 slices white bread 8 slices bologna Mustard Cut each slice of bread into the shape of lips, with a slit in the middle. Cut the bologna into strips that look like tounges. Insert the bologna into the slits in the lips(so it looks like the tounges are hanging out of the mouths). Cover the bread with mustard and broil until the bread is golden brown. -‐---------------------------------------- Even if it is over 20 years old ---

Also he might be dead after eating Koolaid-laced bologna with jackelope fritters.
