September 10 - ...it's what's for dinner

1953 - Swanson began selling its first "TV dinner."

I remember as a kid having TV dinners occasionally.  Usually when Mom and Dad were going out for the night, or if there was a movie on TV we wanted to watch as a family.  I liked the compartment-plates, and remember the brownie being good.   It was fun to get the TV trays out and sit on the couch as we enjoyed our dinner. 

Now I occasionally have TV dinners for lunch if I can find one that a) looks appetizing and b) doesn't include 200% of the daily recommended sodium intake.

I wonder if they still make the ones with the brownie...
