Just got a visual of that triangle in the corner with the white fluff and the yellow patch in the middle that was supposed to be butter!

Remember when TV trays came out so you could eat dinner in the living room and watch tv? It was all the rage to have a tray of those things stuck in the corner next to the couch or something, as if it was a beautiful piece of furniture! Weren't we just sooo cool having those!

White margarine in a plastic bag with the red coloring in a dot in the middle and you had to squish and squeeze the bag to get the uniform yellow color.

Pasteurized milk in glass bottles with the cream on the top and the fights to see who got the cream first.

Ed Sullivan Show.

First TV

Gas for something like 35 cents a gallon LOL:wah:

First car was a VW "bug" with emergency gas lever holding an extra gallon of gas. Drove for an entire week on $5.00 and when the gas ran out, turned on the "emergency" tank, drove to a gas station, and filled up again.
