Today, trying to keep up with the millions of "Joneses" in the kitchens of America seems an impossible task - mostly because, unlike in the middle decades of the 20th century (think "The American Dream" standard), today's "Joneses" are a far more diverse, different group.
One even could argue that, today, there is no such standard; the "Joneses" are a mirage that represents nothing American families resemble any longer.
