Food Propaganda Posters: From War-Time Rations to Post-War Indulgences 🍔🥩🥧

Food propaganda posters of World Wars I and II rallied the public around wartime efforts, such as home gardening and rationing. But did they shape our post-war diets? Let's explore.

Garden-to-Freezer Revolution 🍡

Victory Gardens, immortalized in posters like these, epitomized wartime self-sufficiency. The advent of post-war technology led to a surge in frozen foods, replacing these gardens with ads for TV dinners.

Meat-Centered Diet 🥩🍖

Wartime posters urged citizens to explore meat alternatives. Post-war advances in farming made meat more accessible and led to a meat-centered diet.

Tin Culture 🍱

Canning, vital during the wars for preserving homegrown produce, transformed into a culture of pre-packaged canned foods.

Sugar Surge 🍨🍭🍬

Rationing sugar was a wartime staple, but in the 1950s, sugary foods and drinks exploded onto the scene, illustrated by soda pop advertisements.

While food propaganda posters influenced wartime diets, the post-war era saw a drastic shift towards convenience and indulgence, as mirrored in the advertising of the time.

Spent the last billion hours inventing fictional foods and brands for my OCs to enjoy

#I should emphasize that none of these are even a little important to my story #There is so much worldbuilding around diet and dietary needs and gov response to dietary needs and none of it is even a little important #I just think a world with hybrid people has very interesting implications for what foods are considered acceptable #Which means I gotta be careful to only show them eating food that fits those little boxes #Considering my lazy ass im probably never gonna draw them holding these things with enough detail to matter but whatever I can dream #I like the one that just says Tea can you tell I was running out of ideas #its based on arizona green tea but arizona is not a place that exists in universe and I didnt wanna invent a state so I just. didnt. Tea!#I have random fun facts about most of these that mean nothing #Big Fun drink is meant to be grape flavored but it is Not. Its like the blue rasberry of grape flavoring #Idk what the Big Fun chips taste like. Possibly cheesey.#art #digital art #worldbuilding #food art #oc stuff #maybe ill go back and make some of the generic brand ones less lazy later but probably not #Maybe ill make up some celebrities and movie posters next

Can we see the Brainstorm cake? ovO

cakestorm

we didn't have a knife so we tried using satay sticks (thin wooden sticks pretty much) to slice him up

LENGTHWAYS!

but the cake was really thick so we ended up using cups

so that was the fate of cakestorm (cookies and cream flavoured). he was very yummy. and yes that is perceptor at the side.

y'all I started playing a miku game for the 3DS and now I'm legally obligated to take back every negative thing I've said about the 3DS

#m #video games #vocaloid #the mvs are super cute and you can give miku food and clothes and change her room and if you say miku outloud she waves her tiny hand #and you can buy figurines and posters and listen to vocaloid songs and play a game with miku and make your own card to show to people #yes the nintendo 64 has some of the most iconic games in gaming history but can it use ar to have miku walk around your desk? exactly

A rare poster for an equally rare McDonald's promotion: the 1985 MLP / Transformers toys.

They were only available in St. Louis, where McDonald's tested the notion of having separate girl-oriented / boy-oriented Happy Meal toys for the first time!
