My mom is in her mid-80s and she still talks about food that men would like. When she was growing up, they control the purse and you wanted to please them!

I can't believe how young people have been brain washed. I'm 70 this year (born in 1954) we were taught that we (women/wives/mothers) were the heart of the family. THAT is why we were taught it was important for us to do nice things for our husbands. Not because he controlled the money. 🙄

Sometimes it’s still like that. I hear women making those comments.

I recall staying on my Grandparents farm in the ‘60’s when male relatives took in the crops during a yearly harvest and females prepared 3 full and 2 smaller meals for them a day. The women were all aflutter about “the men! the men! the men are on the way in” !!! Seemed normal when I was a child, but thinking back…

I am with Guy Fieri in that "I do not eat parts that have a job". My mother was a person of habit and would buy Worcester sauce because recipes called for it, although I do not know that she ever used it. When she passed, I found half a dozen unopened bottles in different cabinets. That dish sounds edible, unlike some you have done.

@elizabethoconnor5577 6 ай бұрын

Worcestershire is a bomb ingredient as it adds umami as stated before. I think it was popular as it has anchovies without coming out and saying anchovies. Think, American safe version of fish sauce. Honestly, adding umami seems key in recipes from the 40s-60s which were somewhat bland.

I think the recipe could have just made macaroni and cheese in a pot, then add chopped hotdogs, stir in and then dump into a casserole to bake. Interesting. You're very brave to try!!!

My mother made her mac and cheese using this method. She'd put boiled macaroni in a buttered casserole, add cubed cheese and then pour on milk. She topped it with bread crumbs and baked it. I loathed it.

Even in the UK where we collapse down half the sounds in our words, 'Worcestershire' is a mouthful. We usually just shorten it to Worcester sauce ('Wooster').

Another fun video and great apron! Did you know that many Worcestershire sauce brands use anchovies? As a vegan, it’s something I learned immediately…luckily, there are a few accidentally vegan options out there.

I use coconut aminos. I'm allergic to pods (as well as nuts and soy, argh), and Worcestershire sauce contains tamarind. The aminos have a sweet/salty flavor that seems to work well!

I grew up in the early 1960s and my father always got preferential treatment at the dinner table. I had a vague idea that there was a vague notion that, as the breadwinner for the family, our continued existence was dependent on keeping his strength up. (Even though he never did anything more strenuous at work than press down the keys of a manual typewriter 😂.)

Men were the main focus back then in household cleaning, products, recipes because women’s world revolved around the man in their life and appeasing him. I am not surprised by the man parts of the book knowing the era is came from.

The only stew worth eating is Guinness stew. Chuck steak, parsnips and onions with 2 bottles of Guinness extra Stout cooked for 3 hours in a slow cooker. Add some peat incense and a pub and you have a winning dish.

@Samantharichie1986 10 ай бұрын

I could be wrong, but maybe they focused on men eating and what they prefer since women were the ones who were meal planning and cooking the meals

@relax2dream164 10 ай бұрын

Women in the 50’s cooked to please their husbands. So if a man talked a lot about a specific dish, wives wanted to know how to make them!

@mmoretti 9 ай бұрын

I think they targeted women in the income bracket who might not have gotten to eat out at restaurants all that often. Back in the 50s, men might have gone to restaurants more often due to work, with friends etc.. restaurant meals were an occasional treat. I only recall my parents going to a restaurant probably 3 or 4 time during my childhood. I know it seems condescending but that’s just how things were for most people back then.

Oh, sure, women ate at restaurants, but I'll bet their husbands ordered for them so they wouldn't have to worry their pretty little heads about it. Hooboy.
