17 Great Depression recipes people still cook today during hard times

I grew up poor in 1980s Appalachia and spent most of my time with my grandparents who had survived the Great Depression. We made this cake as well as Coke cake, mayonnaise cake, etc. With the way the economy is now, these are important recipes to learn or relearn. (oce) #Campbell #Heinz #TomatoSoupCake

Surprisingly, the frosting doesn’t overwhelm the cake. I’d go a little thinner on it next time for a more optimal balance of flavours, though. And halve the frosting recipe - this makes a lot more than you need.

If the baking soda made a difference, I’m not tasting it.

Ready for #monsterdon!
