Domestic science as we knew it, is still taught in schools, and to be fair when there's a war on and rationing at its height people will try almost anything to feed themselves. That is not the case now, thank God, we need to move on - it's a different world, even in my lifetime food has changed so much and my Mum was a good cook. The only pasta we had when I was small was tinned Spaghetti, and as for Garlic, Squash, etc. due mainly to being able to import fresh foods from all over the world. I cannot remember having a burger until the advent of the Wimpy bars in my early teens, people's tastes have changed out of all recognition. |
