EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The amount of food the average person eats per year in Great Britain. 25th May 1969" takes us back to a significant moment in history, offering a glimpse into the dietary habits of individuals during that time. Captured by Tony Eyles, an acclaimed photographer from the 1960s era, this image showcases a visual representation of the British diet. Intriguingly arranged on a table are various staples that formed part of daily sustenance for people living in Great Britain during this period. The composition features loaves of bread, slabs of butter, bottles of milk, and heaps of potatoes - all essential elements contributing to nourishment and sustenance. This photograph serves as a reminder not only about the types and quantities of food consumed but also reflects upon societal norms prevalent at that time. It offers valuable insight into how supermarkets like Tesco played an integral role in providing these vital provisions to households across the nation. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, it provokes contemplation about how our eating habits have evolved over decades. This piece from Memory Lane Prints acts as both a historical artifact and an invitation to reflect on our own relationship with food today.
