A salute to gelatine



The question: is it alive?



Beneath the glistening glaze lies "something", perhaps even food.



 May contain meat from a can.


Paralyzed shrimp trapped in aspic, lying in state on a bed of creamed glop.




Tuna treat coated with Ann Page Sparkle Gelatine Dessert, Lime Flavour.




A rectangle of white sludge festooned with designs from the cave paintings of Lascaux. 



 Spherical objects under red jelly, origin unknown. Eggs are optional




Squint closely, and a fierce face leaps out from the plate.



Drunken lima beans bob and flounder in congealed orange fluid. Happy holidays!


A veritable riot of arrested life forms, held in rigid suspension by the miracle of. . . gelatine.
