Around the World

We're wrapping up the week with a quick visit to the 1964 World's Fair, where Frigidaire constructed a series of global kitchens. In the video below, the good stuff starts happening at around the 4:46 mark. In short and hysterical order, our protagonist tours kitchens of the Mediterranean [5:49], the slightly ambiguous 'Exotic East', which I can't determine is either Turkey or India [7:30], then on to the Orient [9:00] and Spain [10:40], before returning to the USA [12:20]. It is particular amusing to watch the changes—continuity be damned—of wardrobe and music in the clip.
