Original caption

Tonight we made brown sugar glazed ham with cheesy funeral potatoes and green beans while Home Improvement played in the background. ❤️ Those funeral potatoes though?! Creamy, cheesy, buttery, with that crispy Corn Flake topping… 🤤 This entire dinner was an easy 10/10 and absolutely going on our make-again list! Who else remembers watching Home Improvement growing up? 😂📺 #90sNostalgia #FamilyRecipes #NostalgiaCooking #MealsThatTasteLikeChildhood #90sDinner

Product placement

Campbell's Cream of Chicken Soup: it is used as an ingredient in the funeral potatoes. Removing it would change the recipe. Kellogg's Corn Flakes: they are crushed and used as a topping for the funeral potatoes. Removing them would change the recipe. Home Improvement: a TV show that plays in the background. Removing it would not change the recipe.
