Ya know that Tuna casserole that has been mouldering in the back of the ice box since who knows when? All of those wondrous combinations of Condenced Soup and a Canned Meat or Fish or Chicken all came from the 1920's. Ummm Ummm Good, Campbells Soup (no commercial intended)....

"""Cake had not waned in popularity since the Twenties; if anything, it was more popular. And that popularity now had (pseudo)-scientific backing. A 1931 booklet from K. C. Baking Powder notes “cakes are no longer considered too rich for daily consumption; in fact, cake is now known to be an exceedingly well balanced food product.”

One of the newest and most popular cakes was mystery or surprise cake—not surprising, because everyone in the Thirties seemed to love “clever” cooking. This cake was a 1925 culinary contribution from Campbell’s Soup and tasted surprisingly good. “But,” said Joy of Cooking (1964), “why shouldn’t it? The deep secret is tomato, which after all is a fruit.” Mystery cake was most often frosted with another brand name product—frosting made from Philadelphia brand cream cheese.""

A Betty Crocker booklet called the Twenties “the beginning of the real cake era.” In looking at the cookbooks from the period you begin to see what was meant. There are spice cakes, angel cakes, devil cakes, sponge cakes, and fudge cakes. There were date cakes, nut cakes, prune cakes, and jam cakes. There were pound cakes, fairy cakes, buttermilk cakes, chocolate cakes, eggless cakes, burnt-sugar cakes, mocha cakes, sunshine cakes, maple cakes, marble cakes, and checkerboard cakes. These lush creations were stuffed, gilded, and embellished with luscious frostings, fillings, and icings opulently flavored with chocolate, coconut, marshmallow, lemon, orange, whipped cream, mocha, caramel, pineapple, maple, maraschino, and brown sugar."""

Because most Americans are ignorant. Most have not travelled outside of their own country and are just obsessed about money and big houses. darfur is being ignored so how can we expect the Armenian genocide to be recognised. Furthermore, Turkish groups(lobbying groups) pay millions and millions to silence the American government against speaking about the Armenian Genocide.
