Thanks, Roland, Meryl, David, and Elle, for acknowledging my milestone.  The alphabet references were especially nice.  I just can't seem to quit the ABCs game....

Hey, Sheriff, it wasn't too long ago that you were trailing me.  Now you've left me in the dust.

Clarissa, thanks for the PM and yet another game.   :)

The colors help, too, I think. Would the York Peppermint Patties "Y" be as recognizable here if it were printed in yellow on green, say, instead of the familiar white on blue?

You're good, Clarissa. Until I peeked at your answers, I only recognized the Campbell's Soup "C" and the M&Ms "M."

The C and the M were the first ones I saw too, Jeff!  I kept relooking at the list, and each pass through I'd suddenly realize I recognized 2 or 3 more. 

The U is still empty.  :)

Underwood Deviled Ham by any chance?

Edit: no, I just checked their website. That's not it.

I do believe the "U" is for Uncle Ben's Rice.  :)

Meryl, you took us on home!  Isn't it incredible that one letter, in a certain shape and colors is so identifiable and loaded with meaning?  It's amazing.
