This type is actually a Cincinnati type copied off the Worthington brand. That is because mock turtle soup was also popular in Germany. So by proxy it had been made in restaurants in the "Over-the-Rhine" region of Cincinnati, which is just down and south of the Findlay market. Go figure that Cincinnati comes up with another strange food. I suspect the cookies would give a German sauerbraten flavor and the eggs probably emulated texture of turtle soup. I have never actually eaten it although I see it on menus and in cans at grocery stores. I have had turtle soup but that was decades ago.
