Book Description
Aunt Sammy came to life with the first radio broadcast of "Housekeeper's Chat" on October 4, 1926. The character of Aunt Sammy-wife of Uncle Sam-was created by the USDA Bureau of Home Economics and the Radio Service. Many women across the country played the part as they spoke into the microphones of local radio stations. The highlights of Aunt Sammy's show were the menus and recipes, but Aunt Sammy also talked about clothing, furniture, appliances, and other family and household matters. Aunt Sammy wasn't just a homebody, however. She commented on world affairs, reported the latest fads, and told jokes. The talk moved easily from one subject to another, always natural and entertaining as well as informative. This 50th anniversary recipe collection includes recipes from current publications and a selection of recipes from the first edition of "Aunt Sammy's Radio Recipes." All of these recipes have been retested in the laboratory and found acceptable by taste panels.

Book Description
"This book brings together three different texts. First and foremost, it contains all of the material from the 1927 cookbook Aunt Sammy's Radio Recipes, produced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). But it also includes excerpts from the 1920s radio broadcasts that inspired the character of 'Aunt Sammy' and menus and recipes promoted by the USDA. Finally, my introduction and editorial comments throughout the book contain historical context to provide a scholarly perspective on USDA's cooking advice and radio listenership of Aunt Sammy's audiences"--Preface.

Book Description
The history of fun foods is fast, energetic, and full of surprises. Ever-present and multi-faceted, fun foods have made appearances at birthday parties and lunch boxes in numerous guises, from Twinkies to energy bars. No mere high calorie treats—fun foods were instrumental to the core of how we live, and integral to the influence of Domestic Science, the shifting power of women at home, the use of fun foods as a weapon during war and the corporate swells that swallowed fun foods whole—and turned it into virtually everything we eat today. Each chapter contains recipes and interviews about fun foods with everyone from the 90-year-old daughter of a West Virginia coal miner to an African American great-grandmother raised in a sharecropper family in the South. Fun Foods of America will take them to free websites to find online cookbooks dating back to the 1600s (with transcriptions!) and those with original paintings, drawings, and photographs of venues such as the World Fairs, where the newest fun food was introduced.
