    Probably something to do with the great depression and needing to make cheap foods interesting

    Something to do with women having to make things look less lazy/not just serving ready made things, and like they put work into making food in the post ww1 period. Recipe books tended to have the crazier stuff trying to get you to use more of their other products

      I think people forget how much MRE style preserved food drove the nation for a bit and why a lot of good cooking was lost for a period.

      Than maximalist cooking using all theass produced food followed and it’s all atrocities for a while.
