     Logistical? The '50s were the golden age of american cooking; the
previous 2 decades were times of shortages and hard times (the depression
and the war). The culinary arts flowered with the combination of millions of
new marriages, exposure to foreign cuisine, plentiful supplies of
everything, and the availability of exotic new ingredients that no one had
ever even heard of before! Not to mention Betty Crocker, who is probably
more responsible for upgrading american cooking than any other factor.
