 n July 29, 1921, the Lawrence Journal-World announced to its readers an opportunity to win a two-dollar cash prize to the person submitting the best recipe for a vegetable salad. So began The Market Basket Contest, a weekly competition that would span three decades, leaving behind a long trail of prized dishes, some of which might otherwise have been forever lost. Among the more than 600 prize-winning recipes contained in The Market Basket, you'll find:
- Mrs. Alexander's Egg Salad For A Picnic Lunch
- Mrs. Rothwell's Cinnamon Rolls
- Mrs. Kirchhoff's Vegetable Soup
- Mrs. Fey's Hot Oyster Sandwich
- Dr. Bumgardner's Summer Drink
- Mrs. Hunter's Tomato Catsup
- Mr. Broadwell's English Meat Pie
- Mrs. Flory's New England Nut Bread
