I graduated in 82 and I remember all these very well. We. were lucky to live in the 70’s and 80’s . They really were the best of times for my generation. America was in a much better place back then. We never had shootings. I do remember however, the Tylenol scare and it was a HUGE thing and it started the seal everything movement. We had great TV and movies and family got together for dinner every night. We waited to watch shows that came on. I was just telling my mother the other day how she use to require us to call here from the pay phone before and after the move at the mall and we would go to the arcade room and deposit quarters to play a game. And we got our soda from glass bottles that we had to return to get a nickel back. We played outside, went on a lot of great picnics, went camping and did not have air conditioning so we went to sleep with the windows open at night and we just dealt with it. We never had to wear helmets and padding to ride our bikes and we climbed tress and made forts in the forest and we turned out just fine. Yes sir! I would go back and do it again if I could. We were very lucky to have lived then.

America was in a much better place back then and jobs were all over, even in a small farm town I lived in. We had textiles, pencil factories and two large malls, (one has recently been removed but you could always get a job) a small country store up town, small ice cream and sandwich shop and every weekend the farmers would sell their goods.. Now that place is sad. We never had shootings. I do remember however, the Tylenol scare and it was a HUGE thing and it started the seal everything movement.

Cheese burger hamburger helper.... seriously they should bring some of these Foods back especially the cup o soups.. they'd come in handy now during this eccomic quagmire..haha . especially if the cup o soups could be sold as cheap as ramen 😅
00:00 - Kikkoman - If you ever hear the orchestra playing this music ("The Stars & Stripes Forever") at a circus, it's the signal that a disaster is happening.
I miss the normal traditional behavior shown in these commercials...The government knew nutrasweet seen in some of these commercials was toxic and death inducing before they even approved it...
Nutrasweet is indeed toxic, when consumed in extremely high amounts and often enough. As Paracelsus wrote, centuries ago, "The dose makes the poison." Everything is toxic in high enough quantities, including water, salt, and other necessities of life.

The La Choy commercials are next level.

I remember a brand of hot dog wieners that had bits of cheese and chili in the middle - Hormel Frankenstuff
40:42: I remember when I was lil the Perdue guy always made me giggle b/c I thought he looked kinda chicken-esque.
Frank Perdue....The Perdue Hotdog commercial at 41:04 with the small kid was a big hit in 1983... Perdue hotdogs are long gone...
This was when Walmart stores ran t.g.&y. Stores out of business
