Serious Mealtimes / Vicky Wasik
My parents never fed me much junk food. Soda was rarely in the fridge. Golden Grahams were about as sweet as cereal got and meals were home-cooked from basic ingredients. But there were a few glorious months when my dad renovated his kitchen and all we could eat was microwave TV dinners—which we did in front of the TV with total authenticity. I always got a Swanson’s Hungry-Man and my favorite by far was the Salisbury Steak platter.
For those who don’t know Salisbury steak isn’t actually a steak at all and I’m pretty sure it didn’t originate in Salisbury. If this Wikipedia article is to be believed it’s named after its inventor Dr. James Salisbury a Civil War physician who believed that a diet high in beef protein would be good for your health. But really Salisbury steak is just one of many variations on the classic Hamburg steak: a steak-shaped patty made from seasoned ground beef. Ultimately it’s not all that different from a meatball or meatloaf except for the shape and the exact ingredients used to make it.
