My grandma was left a widow of 11 children at the start of 1933 ( the youngest being my mom at 3 months ). She didn't have money for her own shoes when they wore out she wore just "rubber covers" on her feet and worked at a sweat shop for about half of what they would hve paid a man back then. She often told her kids "i ate already" or "im not hungry" when she wasn't sure there was enough food.

Her family lived on a dairy farm so they had food (because they raised or grew it all) 16:43 but money was hard to come by. People today do not understand how rough families had it during the depression…thanks for sharing these recipes…you are a joy to watch!

I love these series. I believe they are important. It burns my biscuits to hear someone say they wouldn't eat that. U don't know what true hunger would or would not make u do! My mother was born near the end of the great depression and WWII began in 41 so it was hard on a lot of people for longer. She would talk about wearing the flour sack dresses. The rabbit tobacco they smoked and chicory coffee they drank. It was hard times for sure but they gardened and had small farms. They also did what they called "trading" U would take some of your garden goodies and trade it with other kin folk for eggs, or milk and meat. Til my parents passed away they still called grocery shopping "trading" lol My parents were definitely older when I was born but they were the best and I was blessed to of had them. They taught me the love of Jesus, how to adapt,overcome, and survive. I've never had to live that hard but I can. Your right Brooke, people really loved u. God bless u all.

The difference is that back then NO ONE HAD ANYTHING TO GIVE so yes, you would eat that.

Your apple pudding reminds me of those recipes where the flour mixture sinks to the bottom to make a crust and goodies remain on top. I think there is no time frame for cooking in your original recipe it is because the apples depending on what type is used have different moisture content, so you have to bake off the moisture. My mom use to make this pudding but she left the peels on for family and only peeled for company. ( Peels increased the nutrition) Thank you for your research, loving this series.

My parents were depression era survivors. Not only that, my mothers father, was fresh from Germany, Germans were shunned, during that time. The stories I heard, growing up, where like something out of movie. There is poor, and there is poor. Silver lining…. It developed character, strength, and appreciation for what you had. Funny thing, as desperate as times were, I never got the sense, that my parents hated their childhood! Yes, they had nothing, but everyone was in the same boat.

My GrandFather was a personal driver for the mayor of Atlantic City, (think Boardwalk Empire on HBO) during the 20's. My GrandMother and the 8 kids they had.. raised chickens and butchered many on Saturday to deliver to hotels in Atlantic City for Sunday dinners they served to guests.

The is a great series for the times we are going through now where we are watching our budgets. We have a depression-era apple pudding recipe from my husband's grandma. It is very similar. 4 cups chopped apples (you can substitute almost any fruit you have on hand!), 1 cup self rising flour, 1 cup sugar, and 1 cup milk (any type, even evaporated or reconstituted powdered milk works). Put in large casserole dish and cook about 1 hour in a 350°oven. I vary it adding nuts, raisins, cranberries, or other add ins. Tastes good plain or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. My oven is broken but when I visit my son's house, this is a recipe we like to make together since it reminds us of family meals over the years. Now that we are watching our sugar, we would likely substitute some stevia for that cup of sugar. Thank you so much for all the great meal ideas! I love your channel.😊

We make that. I didn't know it came from the great depression. Sometimes we use apple sauce add in raisins , or nuts . In a pie shell. Called it applesauce pie. Add cinnamon , nutmeg , allspice. Whatever you like. Banana , berries , strawberries etc. Whatever you like. Or leave it plain

My great grandparents told me that you could have a lot of money but the only way you could get food or other stuff with stamps.

I cannot believe peoples snarkey comments. I love watching any of your videos and i especially love the depression ones. I'm from England and i watch loads of documentarys about the war etc. In England our floor sacks had a lining of material and people made clothes out of them and they also started putting prints on them. People were so resourceful then. I have made some of your depression meals and i will definitely try this one. I think you just needed a smaller dish. I've have also made lots of wartime meals. Carrot cookies were my kids favourite made with carrots but didn't taste like it. Keep up with your brilliant videos. ❤

That looks alot like the Apple Tart (just missing the tart crust) that Great Grandma Peterson made for family get togethers when I was a kid. Sometimes she'd add walnuts or pecans too. So if the Apple Pudding tastes like that tart filling I'd definitely try putting into a tart crust like Grandma Peterson did. She passed when I was still in middle school (7th or 8th grade), and I've been trying to recreate her Apple Tart ever since cos she didn't write down. Maybe just maybe you found the base of her tart. 🤔 Definitely trying this!!

My mother died 3 years ago. She had a quilt top that her and.her mother made when she was a little girl. The pieces were of her old dresses. They were made of flour sacks during the great depression . I had it finished and quilted. It hangs on my living room wall

My grandmother used to make cornbread mush ... Pretty sure that's the broke term for polenta 😊

I am 77. Post depression, but people were still very poor in the 40’s and 50’s. My sisters and I had several flour sack dresses. My brother also had shirts made from sacks.
