Pretty good short account of the hamburger as food and as an icon. He would have mentioned the Impossible Burger if it had been made yet, I’ll bet. Worth reading.
Pretty good summary of how 70s television reflected the changes happening in America, from the "relevant" early 70s show to the post-Watergate escapist fare.
