Eating Habits & Supermarket Predictions From 1964

Yesterday I introduced the 1964 book, Home Management and today I continue with its dated words of wisdom. This post needs little explanation – supermarkets did indeed move towards conveyor belts, but only at the end of the shopping process. Calories have been cut by around 1,000 – presumably because of the movement to desk-based work. Finally, the majority of people do indeed cook ready-meals and yes, we all do freeze our food (amazing). For shame. The above image of an old Supermarket is fantastic!
