Yep that wuz some good cheeze

I never have tasted a single slice.

I guess that could be a good thing or a bad thing.
I love cheese.
Have eaten plenty of 'my cheese'.

We got it from a neighbor who got it from the government. That and the peanut butter you had to stir up before using it. It was good in macaroni and cheese, grilled cheese sandwiches and on burgers. The peanut butter was good for sandwiches but not often. We ate it because it was on the table. I guess the neighbors didn't like either very much but us kids would eat whatever mom made for us.

 

[Amish Heart]

Never had the cheese, either.
But I think I've seen all the Little Rascals. Loved them. And Our Gang

 

[Sentry18]

I had it! My mom would buy it from some of the elderly people who received it but never ate it. Then she would help them buy food they would eat.

Government cheese came from dairy subsidies that resulted in a massive surplus of milk. It was either make gov't cheese or let it go bad.

 

[Amish Heart]

I think our govt should distribute food again instead of EBT credit cards.

 

[phideaux]

We always had it at home, not sure where we got it, but I remember that it was really good.

[Amish Heart]

Yep I did that

 

[SheepDog]

Me too but it was Wheaties or Cheerios. No sugar coated cereals at our house.

 

[phideaux]

Ahhh..

Post Raisin Bran

Jim

 

[Amish Heart]

Lucky Charms
Cocoa Puffs
Frosted Flakes

 

[Sentry18]

All cereals are sugar laden, even the ones that pretend to be "healthy".

When I was a kid we always had Shredded Wheat, Grape Nuts, and Raisin Bran.

My wife bought some Honey Nut Cheerios and they are not all round like they used to be. About half are heart-shaped. I guess it's so people think they are good for you. Carb loaded sugar bombs can't be healthy and good for your heart no matter what the commercials tell you.

 

[Amish Heart]

It was all supposed to be animal food anyway.

When I started college...this was my first dealing with electronics 101...

Jim

I used those once in a while when I was in grade school. I was playing with radio circuits back then.
I stopped playing when IC chips came out - except for making repairs to my first computer. The computer center (Radio Shack) couldn't fix it so I did.

 

[Bacpacker]

Growing up a friend we went to church with was a TV repairman. he had a smaller version of that.
When I got out of electronic school I got a job at a repair shop and that had a suitcase version for what few tube type sets we worked on.
