| | He felt about TV dinner desserts the opposite of how he felt about TV dinner macaroni -- to end on the overcooked crust would ruin the whole effect, but to start with the overcooked crust wouldn't feel like eating dessert at all. | | | So Ronny carefully mixed the crust into the sugary syrup and apple chunks in the middle, mashing the fruit and syrup and dough into a coarse mush with his fork. | | | Ronny wasn't allowed to watch TV during dinner, except on the nights that dinner came served in a partitioned foil tray. |

| | According to Wagner, one of the keys to the frozen TV dinner was that each item in the tray was blanched at a different rate so that when the dinner was finally cooked to eat, the entire meal was ready at the same time. | | | But after a year, the turkey TV dinner was changed to white-bread dressing and white mashed potatoes. | | | Many Americans assumed TV dinners were to be eaten in front of the TV so a whole new era of dining culture began. |

| | The first Swanson TV Dinner - made up of three sections containing turkey with cornbread dressing and gravy, sweet potatoes and buttered peas - went on sale in 1953 priced at 98 cents. | | | The advent of the TV dinner coincided with a changing society where women were increasingly going to work and had less time to cook, he told AP. | | | The TV dinner's runaway success led to a pay rise for Mr Thomas, booming business for Swanson and a culinary trend of convenience which shows little sign of falling from favour. |

| | Her late husband, a former Paradise Valley town councilman, never made money off his link to TV dinners, she said, but simply reveled in the limelight when Swanson brought him out of retirement in 1999 to celebrate the TV dinner's "45th anniversary." Even the timing of that event was in dispute. | | | It turns out that the man who did or did not cook up the original TV dinner had finer culinary tastes. | | | Thomas told The Republic in 1999 that he had dreamed up the three-compartment tray - a fourth compartment was added later - and coined the TV Dinner name in an effort to market Swanson's surplus of frozen turkeys. |
