Lots of old recipes from various food companies like Hershey and Quaker before they became part of the behemoth corporations of today. It's not what I expected at all. Some recipes that my mom made from memory turned out to be back of the box from the 1930s and 1940s. It was good to find them. I'm going to try making my Thanksgiving dinner from the recipes in this cookbook!

These are the recipes you meant to clip and save – the ones on that jar label, those cans, on the back of the box. Includes appetizers, main dishes, salads, soups, sandwiches, breads, and desserts of all kinds.
