Foods that were once popular in the Great Depression are making a comeback in 2020, as bare store shelves and panic buying have forced people to get …
Beans on toast have never gone away. Delicious, quick and super cheap. Yum.
my dog pees on dandelions. no thanks.
Good stuff! In the current economic conditions we are facing, whoever is poo pooing videos like this is in for some serious rough times. "A hard head makes a soft behind." The ones who take heed will make it. Thanks for sharing.
2020 = the new worse depression = economic ruin + covid-19
Potato pancakes among the chosen people never lost its place on the table.
Some of these are still my favorite. I cant have pies without Graham cracker crust. And cant turn down a good ol bowl of beans w/bacon & cornbread. Ex would never allow that in the house. It was poor man's food as she puts it. Ugh!
Really? Comeback? We have always eaten these.
This is so dumb. How do I block a channel?
Depression air is here ❤️
It’s cuz we’re POOR.
Shit on a shingle is SOS and it's delicious.
I love Rice pudding but not the store-bought kind, my mom used to make rice pudding and it was really good. When I went to Disney World we went to this Norwegian restaurant where they had rice pudding and it tasted exactly the way my mother used to make it, but they called it rice cream instead.
S.o.s is shit on a shingle
Meatloaf? I’ve been eating meatloaf for many many years. Maybe it’s making a comeback to these degenerate yuppie types who eat bugs and trash.
I'm going back to breathing air starting today.
“potato pancakes are BACK!”
they’re called latkes, and we never stopped eating them. wtf is this list
Time stamp 6:48, you are talking about potato pancakes fried in oil and are actually showing freaking scallops. 🤦♀️ Holy geez this video is terrible
My dumb ass heard depression era food and I thought like….. Clinical depression. Wow. I feel stupid.
In the 50s-60s my family routinely ate such peasant fare as meat loaf, baked potatoes (we always ate the skins or "jackets"), macaroni with ground round and tomato sauce, cottage cheese, fresh cole slaw, fruit flavored jello with canned fruit cocktail stirred in. Special treats included rice pudding, bread pudding, or banana pudding with slices of bananas, graham crackers and vanilla pudding
My dad ate onion, mayo, and white bread sandwiches. He would also take a bowl of milk and crushed saltine crackers.
Making a comeback? These video producers must've lived in space for the last 80 years or so. Oh yeah, I dislike Graham Cracker pie crusts, I'd rather use other cookies or wafers instead.
About Chipped Beef being called S.O.S. In the army, it stands for “Shit On a Shingle.” With toast bring the shingle.RT
You guys forgot poor man's supper, which is basically fried potatoes, served with onions & cut up hot dogs.
Check out Wartime Kitchen and Gardens. Great little series by the BBC.
PS My family always ate baked beans (New England style in our case), meatloaf, potato pancakes. I agree with all the other people – this is a fail of a video based on elitism or ignorance of what we hoi polloi actually do or both.
Where did you get info that food rationing occurred during the Depression? Federal rationing began some months after the attack on Pearl Harbor, when the US entered the war. Check your statements.
I'm not sure that milk, butter & eggs were rationed during the depression as much as they were during WWII. Due to Sir Winston Churchill's insistence that Americans also be forced to ration during that time (we had plenty and didn't really need to but did so out of solidarity) things like cooking oil, eggs, butter & sugar were rationed. Cooks got creative and started using other food items that weren't rationed to make baked goods. Mayonnaise is nothing but oil and eggs so it made a great substitute for the items that were rationed. Because Coca-Cola provided the troops with soda, they were allowed all the sugar they wanted. That's how Coca-Cola and 7-UP ended up in cakes. In a 12 oz. bottle of Coke, there are about 16 tsp. of sugar. Sweet!
I love meatloaf! For dinner and a sandwich the next day!
The vivacious rowboat interspecifically calculate because distance consquentially muddle between a bustling biology. comfortable, second month
This video doesn't work for me. Talk too fast and rediculous little film and picture snippets. Two minutes…bye!
That "wacky cake" tastes better than most chocolate cakes.
Baked beans are and have always been gross but that's just my personal taste
When did meatloaf go out of style? There was no rationing during the depression.
I love meat loaf
6:45 Scallops?
I have eaten these foods all my life.
