A Road Scholar Program by Penelope Bingham

The mere mention of "Tuna Noodle Casserole"-the one made with canned tuna, packaged noodles, and canned soup-to an American of a certain age can call up powerful memories. Love it or hate it, Tuna Noodle Casserole has been an icon of American home cooking since the 1950s. The program invites the audience to think about the ways in which the family dinner table and American culture have changed since the days of Leave it to Beaver and to consider the role of the food industry in American food culture.
