oin our curator, Cas Sanders, for a tasty lunchtime look at a century of culinary evolution.
We often think of the big inventions, but what truly changed how we eat? It's more about people than technology, as we discover how social shifts, especially the changing role of women, unlocked a revolution in our kitchens and dining tables.
This is a fun talk that will make you look at your fridge differently! We'll explore the fascinating forces that took us from seasonal, home-cooked food to the rise of the convenient ready meal.
