Time when moms were happy to stay home, when, in retrospect, the world seemed an innocent place.  Easier and safer then it is today. Mothers everywhere selected hamburger as their favorite meat choice.  The most versatile of all meats.  Fried, baked, broiled, or cooked over open flames, the American mom was in love with hamburger.
