Poor David--that's a bad memory for a little 5 year old! You probably didn't even notice it. My gran told me not to drink out of the chipped bottles because she said the glass might be inside. Of course---if she didn't catch it.......I'd do it anyway.
We used to have big 16 ounce Pepsis, and on Saturdays, my granny and I would "half" one and drink it out of a glass full of ice with popcorn while I watched "wrestling". LOL. That seems so funny now, that we shared a bottle and we had a Pepsi only on Saturdays---it was a treat.
Yep--Grape Nehis were very tasty! I don't know if they still make those or not.
Remember Radar O'Reilly on M.A.S.H.? He always drank Grape Nehis, didn't he! I think he got "drunk" on them once.
My Dad LOVED M*A*S*H! Dad is a veteran of the Korean war, and he always watched M*A*S*H each week. In fact, I think he still watches it when it airs on TVLand. Yup! Radar loved his Nehi!! And I think I remember the episode when he got drunk on them!
These old pictures of products are great
Well, let's see:
Friday night cause school was over for the week.
Watching "Dark Shadows" after school.
Watching scary movies, especially late on Friday nights.
Listening and finding new music (yes, it goes back that far).
Buckburgers.
That's a few I can think of. Oh yeah, I remember Shake A Puddin'. Do they still make that
What is Shake A Puddin'? I don't think I remember it.
I remember Jiffy Pop! It came in a pan with a foil top. You heated it over the stove and the foil would expand as the popcorn popped inside of it. You had to shake it constantly so the popcorn wouldn't scortch.
I remember mom saying "Stand away while I pull open this foil or you'll get a steam burn!"
Anyone remember this commercial? I sure do!

Her fried chicken wouldn't taste greasy if she'd drain it before she served it!!
