About this episode

Nothing quite conveys America’s need for  quick culinary convenience  like a tv dinners , turkey and gravy with mashed potatoes and peas ,all  neatly portioned)in an easy oven ready tray


The tv dinner of the 1950s and 60s , changed a lot in the  decade  since , today ,the frozen foods are  a booming category in supermarkets , in 2023, modern home  appliances and direct to consumer business models  are picking up where those tv dinners left off .
Technology’s always going to be at the forefront of what drives ,  I think  a lot of consumer innovations ,and  balancing  that  against the very  traditional and  very recognizable experience of sharing a kitchen ,to both prepare and enjoy a meal  .  Is incredibly important to us ,  I don’t think that is ever going to go away .
