Did you know TV dinners were created in 1953, because Swanson ordered too many turkeys that year?
They had all this leftover meat, so rather than throw it away, the company put out frozen turkey dinner trays, with one side dish and a dessert that was easy to reheat. But the popularity of those TV dinners slowly faded away.
Here are some other old-school frozen foods that no one eats anymore.
1. Fried clam strips
2. French bread pizza
3. Salisbury steak
4. Frozen orange juice concentrate
5. Fish sticks
6. Frozen breakfast platters
7. Kid Cuisine dinners
8. Boca burgers
9. Frozen chow mein
10. Welsh rarebit.
(Apparently, it’s just bread, mustard, and cheese? You can do this without a freezer. Although, I’m not sure why.)
