This is our first "Waist-Deep Dive," where we explore a topic that was found to be fascinating during the research of the main story (in this case, the Diet Culture Decoded episode), but did not quite fit there in it's entirety. So consider the Waist-Deep Dive as more of a companion piece to the original.
This time, we are going to step into the bizarre world of 1960s American food culture, where space-age dreams met suburban reality. This entertaining and eye-opening episode explores how Tang became an astronaut's companion, cereals turned into sugar delivery systems, and cocktails became suburban survival tools. From the chalky depths of Metrecal to the artificial heights of Tab, discover how these foods and drinks shaped (and were shaped by) an era of unprecedented change, paranoia, and progress. Join us for a witty, insightful journey through the most fascinating food decade in American history.
