## Editor's Notes
- **"Canned spaghetti"** = spaghetti in tomato sauce, noodles and sauce together. Franco-American Spaghetti was the dominant period brand; Chef Boyardee is the modern equivalent.
- **"Hot oven 275"** on original card is almost certainly an error — 275°F is not a hot oven by any period definition. Hot oven typically means 400-425°F in mid-century terminology; 375°F recommended as a conservative correction that heats through without overcooking. -
