If you haven’t seen it already, I wanted to give a shout-out to Andy Sturdevant’s piece on Virginia Safford’s Friends and their Food over at the Heavy Table. We have this book here in the Kirschner Collection and it is a wonderful piece of Minnesota food history. I appreciate that Sturdevant situates the canned-soupy, gelatin-based recipes in this book in some historical context rather than playing them for laughs. It’s worth a read.
