Did you know that Swanson T.V. Dinn
ers were brought back in January 2007. Let's be clear...its not that Swanson just found back stock of their 1950's dinners and took them out of the deep freeze....no...what I mean is that the company re-launched their classic dinners.Swanson T.V. Dinner Introduced in 1953
Let me re-fresh your memory. Swanson T.V. Dinners came out in 1953 at the same t
ime as Americans were watching T.V.in technicolor. My three favorite dinners were (1) Fried chicken (2) Roast turkey (3) Macaroni and Cheese. I wa
s also a big fan of the Chicken Pot Pies.To this day whenever I serve frozen mixed vegetables to my family I automatically have a flashback to the Turkey Swanson T.V. dinner's unique aluminum foil package. I remember as if it was yesterday.... carefully peeling back the tin foil cover and exposing the vegetables, turkey and mash potatoes which were organized so nicely in that iconic aluminum tray. Those mash potatoes were pretty good as I remember.
Swanson Classic T.V. Dinners included:Boneless Fried Chicken
Boneless Pork
Breaded Fish Fillet
Fried Chicken Strips
Macaroni and cheese
Meat Loaf
Macaroni Style Fiesta
Roasted Carved turkey
