- TV Dinner Invention
- The inventor of the TV dinner is a matter of great debate. Former Swanson executive Gerry Thomas claims to have invented the idea after the company had an excess of frozen turkeys on hand. This story has been challenged.
- Swanson was not the first to market frozen dinners. William L Maxson's frozen dinners were served on airplanes beginning in 1944. Other frozen dinner trays were introduced in 1952. Although Swanson may not have invented the TV dinner, they were responsible for the widespread awareness and sale of the item.
