Скачать или смотреть What Dinner Meant in American Homes (1960s–1970s)

In the 1960s and 1970s, dinner meant more than food in American homes.

It marked the end of the day.
A moment of stability in a decade full of change.
A quiet promise that, at least once a day, everyone would arrive in the same place.

This video explores how family meals slowly changed during that era — not suddenly, not dramatically, but quietly. As life sped up, workdays grew longer, and uncertainty filled the outside world, dinner became one of the last anchors of routine and presence.

These meals didn’t promise happiness.
They promised consistency.
They promised togetherness.

If you remember a meal that made your house feel steady — especially during uncertain times — share it in the comments. These memories deserve space.
