I'm probably confused and remembering something else, but it sure seems like I remember seeing those. If I saw them for sale at the grocery now, I'd DEFINATELY buy them! :)

This is really interesting David!  I had been under the impression that BetterMost was a fictitious brand.  It would be interesting to see examples of the original, real packaging of BetterMost beans.  It might be an interesting research project.  And, then we as Brokies and BetterMostians can go out and collect vintage BetterMost cans if they exist.
 ;D

Maybe BetterMost really is like the situation with "Old Rose".  It seems that Old Rose is a discontinued whiskey brand... or a famous old distillery that went out of business.

Well, like I said Amanda, I SEEM to remember them. The first time I noticed them in the movie the name rang a vague bell. But it could purely be my imagination.... or my bad memory. :D

I remember some ancient discussions here and maybe back at imdb too about Old Rose.  And, I do recall once finding a teeny, tiny bit of information about an old, old distillery that was based in Chicago (I seem to recall that part), but that went out of business a really long time ago.  I also have a vague memory of folks finding an image online of an old, vintage shot glass with the (real life) Old Rose logo on it.  But, for some reason I'm having trouble finding info on it at the moment.  I just ran some google and yahoo searches and didn't come up with any hits this time. 

As for BetterMost, I always really thought it was made up.  But, I'd love to be proven wrong!
