We love this stuff... we haven't had it in a long time. Gonna have to get some pears now!


What an unusual salad (for me, anyway). So unusual that it sounds delicious! I will try it soon!


This sounds really good, although I might have to throw some chopped pecans on top! :) Thanks!


I grew up with this salad too and certainly liked it. I think we had it a lot because my father LOVED it.Hmmm. I have a can of pears......Thanks for the memories!


Oh! The cherry. Mom would put a marachino cherry on top (is that an alteration?)


I grew up on this, too. My mom used to make it at least once a week, usually on meat loaf night.


Oh yes, I grew up on this too!
