I would say moulded foods in general have fallen out of fashion, Christmas pudding aside, and not counting things like cake tins & pie dishes as 'moulded foods'... which I suppose gets somewhat arbitrary, but there's definitely a certain hard to define (use of gelatin or similar setting agent?) style of moulding (blanc mange, jelly, pates) which seems out of vogue.
- dylan604 3y agothen why not just say moulded gelatin foods have fallen out of style? with all of the modern baking shows and baking adjacent game shows, moulding food is still all the rage. there's a lot of "food" that as fallen out of style as we've come to accept that it wasn't really food to begin with. the crap my parent and my grandparents were told was food was the the beginnings of the corp take over of food so that they were actually just food products. things like jello, margarine, cool whip, and similar are the top things that for me personally have been completely removed from my diet but were staples previously
- OJFord 3y ago> then why not just say moulded gelatin foods have fallen out of style? Because that isn't what I said or meant but just a parenthetical suggestion at what a better definition might be when I realised that it worked for the three examples that came immediately to mind and that I listed? > with all of the modern baking shows and baking adjacent game shows I explicitly excepted cake tins and pie dishes and the like, I don't think of that as 'moulding' and I don't think most people do either.
