Remember Jell-O salads and cheese sprayed out of a can? In this virtual presentation, historian and author Leslie Goddard will take a nostalgic look back at the food innovations and marketing approaches that transformed how we eat. Using classic cookbooks, mass-market advertisements, and family magazines, we'll explore how society and technology shaped American food from the 40s through the 60s. Registration required.
