Found in the kitchen

Section of a "Krusty Korn Kobs" cast aluminum cornbread pan. The pan was patented in 1920 by US company Wagner Ware, who promoted cornbread as: "Another good thing that has come out of the war".

 

Corn had replaced wheat during World War I, with the United States Food Administration promoting "Meatless Mondays" (not Happy for some!) and "Wheatless Wednesdays", to encourage economical food consumption, not trendy diets.
