Remember Jell-O salads and cheese sprayed out of a can? When every pantry held Velveeta and all the kids wanted to drink Tang? The Bartlett History Museum welcomes historian and author Leslie Goddard for a nostalgic look at the food inventions and marketing approaches that transformed how Americans ate at midcentury. 

Using classic cookbooks, advertisements and family magazines, this program will explore how society and technology shaped American food from the 1940s through the 1960s.
