Answer 5

Quiche was popular then.... but most of the things I made then, I still make:)  Stuffed peppers, flank steak on the BBQ,  Sausage & Peppers.  ...  Supposedly, people think fondue was popular, but I've never even tasted cheese fondue!  (I was married in 1967)  We DID put out pots of hot oil, in fondue pots, with dishes of chicken, beef & shrimp & veggies with tempura batter, to dip them in and put in the pots though...

Answer 6

I was married in the 70's.  What was big then??  Anything packaged.  Casseroles were huge too!!
