Description
Remember Jell-O salads and cheese sprayed out of a can? In this lively lecture, historian and author Leslie Goddard, PhD, will take us on a nostalgic journey to a time when every pantry stocked Velveeta and every kid wanted to drink Tang. Learn how food innovations as well as marketing approaches transformed how we ate from the 1940s through the 1960s.
Word has it that Chef David may even make a retro recipe for you to sample.
$25, includes shopping & half-price lunch coupons good that day. Purchase tickets at www.littletraveler.com.
