Can’t get enough of this insane new book we just got in yesterday: American Advertising Cookbooks: How Corporations Taught Us To Love Bananas, Spam®, and Jell-O® by Christina Ward (Process) $22.95 – Loaded with full-color images, Ward pulls recipes and images from her vast collection of cookbooks and a wide swath of historical advertisements to show the influence of corporations on our food trends. Though easy to mock, once you learn the true history, you will never look at Jell-O the same way again! Don’t miss Christina Ward here at Quimby’s to DISH about this crazy book (and serve Kraut Kake!) on Friday, March 1st at 7pm.
