1938 Kitchen quiz!

I found this quiz at http://kellishouse.blogspot.com/

What do you think the answers are? I will post mine along with the questions, but I wouldn't rely on them for your answers.

1938 Kitchen Quiz!

About a month ago I shared a neat book with you called Foods and Home Making by Carlotta C. Greer.


We had a fun kitchen quiz, and I promised to have another one in the future, so get out your paper and pencil! Let's go back to the year 1938...



1. When should the butter be put on the table and the water poured, at the breakfast table?

A: First, so the butter has time to soften and so you're not pouring water over everyone's head?

2. Suppose you accidentally spilled a cup of cocoa at the table. What would you do? What would you say?

A: Get angry, apologize like crazy and get a towel.

3. What is the most important step in dishwashing?

A: cleaning the food off?

4. How should crackers and breads be eaten with soup?

A: crumbled in?

5. How thick should vegetables parings be?

A: Honestly, not exactly sure what that means.

6. Should pie be served for luncheon or for dinner?

A: Isn't it a dessert?

7. What consideration should be shown the meat carver?

A: A cow only has so many of each part so Call ahead.



Any guesses?
