1960 - January 31

The Swedish Diner in Salina, Kansas, serves its last meal, a day-long, all-you-could-eat extravaganza that it bills as “A King’s Treat.” For $2.25 patrons get the smörgåsbord and all its Swedish standbys, from risgrynsgröt (rice porridge) and rag brod (rye bread) to köttbullar (meatballs) and lingonberry-topped ostkaka (cheesecake), as well as “many other choice foods.”
