The phrase "coming out" used to mean something different. Or perhaps the same, judging by the other woman's reaction.

This week’s #SundayLunch is that classic holiday dish, scrambled eggs with canned soup. Try it at home! (Or don't.)
#vintageAd #Christmas #food

Vintage ad for Campbell’s soup. It suggests making scrambled eggs with a can of soup in them, and calls this a holiday dish. There’s a large photo of a pile of eggs. They’re surrounded by parsley and cherry tomatoes in the shape of a wreath. No matter how hard the food stylist tries, there’s nothing Christmassy about scrambled eggs.
