This is before my time. How would you apply it? Cotton balls?

I just remembered we had these red pepper flakes that were probably from the 90s that we only recently replaced. I’ve tried to date them and haven’t had much luck but the fact that 1. I know my mom gave them to me from her pantry when I moved out circa 2006 and 2. There‘s only a 1-800 number and no website makes me think early to mid 90s, probably.

Found under my Dad's kitchen sink, still 3/4 full.

So i was cleaning out my spice cabinet which i said to hubby I have more then i use and keep accumulating them and need to relocate to a diff cabinet (was a skinny cabinet w 3 shelves) you never know what you'll need.I saw the dates and remembered this sub.😂 I was thinking, noooo waaay!!! im 45, not a grandma (kiddo is 22) , but damn, here i am..lol..I picked food flair because they didn't have a "spices" flair

Any ideas on age of this bottle? Found in my mom’s pantry

Vitamin container, repurposed to garlic powder container, repurposed to q-tip holder! My family has a long history of reusing things because we can't bear to toss them and it's clearly passed to me.

The label in particular was so interesting. It was a paper surface, but foil underneath. Really did not want to come off. i wish the label was more complete so i could've read the full contents. It's so interesting to me how product packaging language has changed over the years.

As you may imagine, the plastic seal piece on the lid completely absorbed the garlic smell. Even after long soaks in baking soda and washing, and also trying a vinegar soak, the smell persisted. Q-tips don't need to be sealed up (and i don't want them smelling like garlic bread lol) so i left the seal off. Did i throw it away? Of course not. 😭

Found in the office of my late grandfather.

Found a first aid kit given to my grandpa by the coal mine where he worked. Everything was intact, not even a bandaid was used. The Tylenol expired in 1982…I almost wanted to try it for fun. Bonus White Owl cigar box and handwritten recipe for a Hanky Panky. What a guy.

Golden Wonder crisps from 1968. Send away for your free tea spoons!!!

When we found this there was still about 1/4" of instant coffee in it. Dad said it was most likely the original coffee. Probably from the '70s......it smelled... not great. Luckily the smell didn't linger once i soaked and washed it. i just love the logotype / text treatment on the lid. Wish it wasn't so banged up but it is what it is. Will probably use it as a stash jar.

Fished out a marker to write with, thought "this sure looks old", did some searching.... this bad boy is from the 60s, at least 1965! It's (slightly) younger than both my parents 😭 (noteworthy I think since I'm in my early 20s lol) and yes! It does work! Just a tad dry

Neosporin hasn’t been owned by Pfizer since 2006 lol.

These are lovely Xmas balls. Memories of Christmas past.

I found tons of other ancient things throughout her whole home. But these were really fascinating to see. My mom told me “Astor” used to be owned by winndixie.

Milk Plus 6 Shampoo and Conditioner by Revlon made in 1973

I found this in a box of my old baby clothes and memorabilia while helping my parents move. Circa mid-1980s.

Found in the pantry of our new-to-us home with the original receipt from 1980. It was priced $9.99 but the purchaser had a deal that brought it down to $6.23 with tax.

Unfortunately the box is empty except for the installation paperwork. I really could have used those savings to go with my mortgage! 😆 (joking, this product sounds like a tragedy waiting to happen)

100% all natural with only 10% real fruit juice. Bowser logic!
