It was strange sounding to me, so I turned the internet to look it up and see if anyone else truly made (and ate!) this salad. Well, there weren't too many entries, but I managed to track down a site that said it might have originated in the 1920's and another in the 50's. I found it was a recipe fad in 1969 which didn't surprise me, as the 50's and 60's had a lot of odd concoctions they called food (like lime jello with pickles and olives in it!). Yes, my FIL still makes that one. No. I don't partake of it.
Three P Salad
3 can of peans, drained
1 small jar sweet pickle relish
8 oz. peanuts, chopped
mayonnaise, just enough to moisten it.
Be brave my dear readers... be brave.
