Spaghetti Bolognese became very popular in the UK in the 1970's, and I will serve it at the party to show respect for Peter Morgan who is of British descent.

I will have a fresh salad bar because salad bars first appeared in U.S. restaurants in the 1970's and became huge which quickly led to the popularity of the side salad.

I will be serving Cheese Fondue because it spread from Switzerland to America in the 1970's and became a staple dish, commonly served at dinner parties as a sign of class.

In the 1970's Kraft debuted a new "Pistachio Pineapple Delight Pudding" which became very popular. Then, a Chicago Newspaper printed the recipe and dubbed it the "Watergate Salad" and the name stuck. Thus, I will be serving this dish because it was very popular in the 70's and was named after the Watergate scandal.
