[QUOTE="BriarPipeNYC, post: 551470, member: 4199"] THANKS!!!!......for the nostalgic pics of Melmac unbreakable dinnerware.... and pics of those old fashioned, Formica kitchen sets that everybody had. All the bottoms of the chromed steel legs used to rust on the table and chairs- where the wet mop hit them when mom washed the floors. The Chinese food from the cans was...I'll be kind, disappointing. Great if you liked onions, celery, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts (that looked like worms), and those crunchy water chestnuts...all cooked and steamed into a vegetable "glue". Pour it all onto a mound of some bland, overcooked, white rice, sprinkle it with the crispy noodles, squirt some salty soy sauce on it, and you can swear you were in some classy Chinese restaurant! La Choy and Chun King......no words. I remember eating this banquet, as I sat, with eyes glued to the TV set, watching The Mickey Mouse Club. Spin and Marty, and The Hardy Boys were my role models. Only fellow members of the Jurassic Club will remember. [/QUOTE]
