Things You Don't See Anymore Part 3

You beat me to it, and you're absolutely right!

I was wary of including firearms because threads about them are verboten on TB. But we're just making a point about them being mechanical; we're not starting a conversation/debate about them.

Here is a very simple mechanical item that many households use. A foot pedal trash can.

How about these two cereals?

View attachment 4366971


Yes and yes. My wife recently came home with new versions of Count Chocula, FrankenBerry, and BooBerry. Honestly, they were crap. Not anything like the original product from back in the 70s or whenever. Each of them had a 'plastic' taste to them...I guess way too much artificial flavorings. Likely won't be finishing those boxes either. :smug:

How about the other two monster themed cereals - Fruit Brute and Yummy Mummy? They both were revived a few years ago but are gone again.
