A childhood memory was some of the food that my Midwestern small town grandparents routinely ate in the late 50's and into the 60's, some now seem a bit "old - fashioned" to me (but grandpa lived 1876 -> 1965!). Here are some:

I loved the ring baloney from the local butcher. The ice milk was
o.k.. Loved the liver and onions. No cornmeal mush or dried cod. I
remember the ads for the Hollywood Bread.
Do you remember:
Dream Whip
angel food cake
Minute steaks
canned spinach
breaded pork chops
liver dumpling soup
smoked chubs (fish)
pickled herring in a small wooden keg
