Golden oldies. Remember these?

[Lewkat]

If anyone knows what this was used for, please weigh-in.

In the days of yore, this was used mainly for upper respiratory diseases. The fumes made for easier breathing. It was also dabbed on cuts and abrasions.

Just love some of the ingredients in these Golden Oldies!

My great aunt was addicted to this stuff.

LOL!

We lived off the stuff, Lew!

If it wasn't Kool-Aid in our house, and it was... it was Tang!

Good grief, I remember that Tang too. How gross was that stuff. We always had it in the house and my sibs loved it. Even the first astronauts took it into space with them.

Anyone remember this stuff? Staple in our household and we loved it. Still around.

ROFLMAO!

You know, Lew, my dad would come home from work on a hot summer day and the first thing he'd ask my mom is, "you got any chilled Tang"?

Thinking back on it now I think like you, I wouldn't touch either (Tank or Kool-Aid) now, but as kids we thought we had hit the lotto when on grocery night mom unpacked several boxes of Kool-Aid and Tank from the heavy brown paper chopping bags!

I never heard of it before or seen it.

The package sure does make for an appealing sell!

I barely remember grandma using this when she mixed up the ingredients for home made ice cream. Always thought Junket was a funny name.
