- Beyond the known changes such as no computers or most kitchen conveniences, the Campuses are still surprised by what few technological conveniences are available to them especially at the beginning of the week but how much they admire the style to look at. The other big challenges for them for the entire week will be fulfilling the stereotypical gender roles in the household - Aaron who usually does most of the household cooking - which is made all the more difficult for Tristan in having to look pretty in her high heeled shoes while doing that cooking, and eating together as a family. They will find that the beginning of the week - the war years - is more difficult with food rations, most of the higher quality food products being sent overseas to feed the troops, leaving what one in western society today would generally consider unwanted pieces of animals what is left for the home dinner table, if there was animal protein at all, and that food cannot be thrown in the garbage if an error was made on the proverbial stove. Valerie and Jessica will also have to do their part for the war effort, which brings them back to an activity they used to do before technology invaded their lives. They will also learn the concept of the victory garden and bulking up meals by cheaper, more available, and healthy food products according to the newly developed Canada Food Rules, the precursor to today's Canada Food Guide. Beyond the end of the war and the celebration associated with that, the latter half of the week - the post-war years - is arguably easier for the family as more food and more food choices, although not totally appreciated by the Campuses, are available, albeit at much higher prices with the end of government price controls on even the most basic of food staples. Throughout the week, Robert probably has it the easiest as besides not having his technological toys, he has the most carefree life, the greatest responsibility being to show up for dinner after spending his after school hours playing outside.
- Going into the 1950s, the Campuses anticipate that the gender roles from the previous decade remain which means Tristan will still be alone in the kitchen much of the time, that they will still be eating dinner together as a family around the formal dining room table, but that the mood will be much lighter and happier than it was the previous decade. While all these things are true, that latter item for Tristan is tempered when she learns that there is an extra expectation on her to keep the appearance of the perfect house just in case anyone should stop by unexpectedly. Beyond the manual, Tristan is provided an extra guide to ensure she does do what the 1950s housewife was expected to do. As the decade progresses, things will arguably get easier for Tristan in the kitchen. First, middle class families would occasionally go out for dinner, often to Chinese-Canadian restaurants, which belied the racism that still existed exhibited by the middle class suburbs being predominantly white. Second, more and more electrical appliances and gadgets would become available making kitchen work easier. These included storage containers leading to the ubiquitous "Tupperware party" to allow housewives to socialize more and earn some pocket money in the process. And third, more and more convenience foods came on the market to make dinner preparation easier, from box cake mixes to frozen foods that just needed to be defrosted and reheated. Valerie and Jessica believe they receive the short end of the stick compared to Robert when it comes to their "free time" activities, although they all, closer to the end of the decade, will begin to socialize at the precursor to the fast food restaurant: the diner. The men's duties around the house took on a more serious nature associated with the geopolitical tensions of the time. Aaron's responsibilities with regard to what is ingested take their first steps with his role as bartender in the era of the cocktail party. And what resembles what they are used to in twenty-first century life may first arguably come with a big box in their living room and the food and folding miniature tables associated with it.
- Walking into the house for the first time, the Campuses can immediately tell that the 1960s will be lighter and more fun, which it will be to reflect the more open attitudes that emerge. Tristan is still stuck in the kitchen - at least in the beginning of the decade - but will have a new cooking guide in the form of Julia Child, who brought gourmet French food, previously solely the domain of swanky restaurants, into the home kitchen. Tristan will also have more help in the form of what she's used to in modern day: processed foods to enable cooking short cuts, including the space aged mashed potato flakes. By mid-decade, Italian became the new food trend with the onset of what is now considered the go to dinners of pasta or pizza. The end result of these food changes is that Tristan will now have more time to spend with the family in more fun pursuits. Fashion and style of the decade is influenced by the likes of Jacqueline Kennedy and The Beatles. The Campus kids move from the 1950s hangout of the diner to the 1960s hangout of the coffee house, which was the hotbed of politically charged folk music and protest. Tristan's emergence from the kitchen is in part due to the rise of feminism, with Aaron taking on this first real role in cooking, although his designated cooking appliance, the charcoal barbecue, is a different beast than the gas powered barbecue to which he is used. Celebratory themed meals are served for two milestone occasions: Canada's centennial in 1967 - which has its own emotional issues for Aaron in being part indigenous, that part which was stripped from his mother in marrying a non-indigenous person - and the Apollo 11 moonwalk in 1969.
- The 1970s will be a first, at least for Aaron and Tristan, as a decade which they originally did live through, and can remember. Cool is a word they all use to describe the style at least of their house. With much uncertainty in the world, the home became a person's sanctuary, and there was the want for comfort, even in food with the rise of the slow cooker. With women starting to go to work, men started to assist in domestic duties, although under the guidance of the wife. The working wife also led to the rise of latch-key kids, who were often left with convenience foods - such as instant mac and cheese - as an easy to make after school snack. One of the most well-remembered events of the early 1970s was the 1972 Canada-Russia summit series, which turned out not only to be a measure of hockey supremacy, but a geopolitical gauge of the supremacy of democracy versus communism. The federal policy of multiculturalism led in part to great immigration, resulting in a more ethnically diverse array of restaurant choices, especially Indian (i.e. South Asian) restaurants. Such a meal hits home with part South Asian Tristan, who grew up with such food. Later in the decade, the health movement took hold, health and supposed health foods which became more popular. What made life more complicated, in addition in the kitchen, was the onset of the metric system. The latest 1970s was known specifically by one fad: disco. Disco soon was paired with roller skating to form roller disco. The Campuses end the decade with an extended family dinner with new latest food trend: the fondue. With computers and cell phones still decades away, the Campus kids are stuck with the fads of the day to keep themselves preoccupied during their free time, from macrame, to riding banana seat bicycles, to space balls, to being mesmerized by mood rings. And by the end of the decade, Tristan is arguably the happiest she has been during the whole experiment up to this point.
- The Campuses enter their home for the first time this decade to find the décor is all glass, brass and lacquer to reflect the new prosperity and openness of the era, that prosperity especially by who will be coined yuppies, the more affluent of the baby boomers. For the first time in the experiment, Tristan is banished from the kitchen in the preparation of the first meal, it, iconic to females of the time, which will ironically be prepared by the males. Men in the kitchen does not mean that the women's domestic duties were usurped. The new sense of adventure, which extended to cooking gourmet at home with more and more kitchen gadgets and people getting new ideas from cooking classes, was balanced by a new health trend as baby boomers were approaching the middle age bulge, that health both in diet and exercise. The former includes meatless meals with the use of non-animal protein ingredients such as tofu. The latter saw the onset of aerobics for women, and pumping iron for men, both while adorned in spandex. The mid-80s saw the rise of Japanese food, the California roll the gateway to the more adventurous raw fish sushi. What arguably changed the family dynamic was the introduction of the tech gadgets of the home video game console, hand held electronic games, and the videocassette recorder (VCR), which revolutionized the way people watched television. The late-80s saw another revolutionary kitchen appliance hit the market, the microwave oven which led to complete meals being cooked in such. Cultural novelties include Trivial Pursuit, friendship pins (the equivalent today of friending someone on Facebook), the pogo ball, and painting à la Bob Ross style. A style icon, especially for girls Valerie and Jessica's age, was Madonna, with big curly hair and bangs, and overtly sexualized feminine items mixed with overtly masculine items. The Campuses last meal of the decade is something with which they are more familiar in present day: the home delivered meal, specifically of the Canadian invention of the Hawaiian pizza.
- The Campuses enter the last decade of the experiment to find their house is designed for comfort and relaxation as people begin to see their homes as their sanctuary. Domestic gods and goddesses populating the airwaves, people like Martha Stewart, show how to entertain at home in style and with flair, a small dinner party which Tristan and Aaron will be hosting for a small group of friends for their first meal of the decade. Part of that do it yourself entertaining includes the boom in wine making shops. More prepared foods and packaged foods come on the market and all you can eat buffets become popular to make life easier for the diverse family, who begin to go off in different directions in their scheduled activities. Those domestic entertaining lifestyle shows are just part of the information overload that begin with 24-hour news channels, home computers and the Internet, the combination which kept people plugged into such events as the O.J. Simpson white SUV chase. As the population ages, low impact exercise, such as power walking and step aerobics, becomes the rage. Issues such as contaminated water lead to more and more bottled water being consumed, and with it the recycling movement takes hold to deal with all that additional waste. As with most other decades, pop music influences teen style, this decade which has a more relaxed style associated with grunge, alternative rock and mainstream country, while Tristan gets a little guidance from a style icon to dress for the decade of the supermodel. Unlike other decades however, the teens, Valerie in particular, will be doing something different from the other decades: get a part-time job, specifically at an Italian coffee house where caffè lattes are de rigeur as the gateway coffee drink to the more traditional and stronger espresso, while Robert gets back what are arguably his two greatest comfort foods, chicken nuggets and hard-shelled tacos made with a packaged mix. On "December 31, 1999", the Campuses celebrate both the end of the millennium and the end of the experiment with the most lavish meal of their six decades where they will be able to discuss with Carlo their entire experience, only in knowing the outcome of the Y2K crisis that gripped the world that actual day.
