My Aunt Olive would come visit on Fridays and my dad would take my mom to the A &P to shop. When they got back they would give the white oleo to Olive and she would watch Perry Cumo on our little tv and stir the yellow powder into the oleo to make it yellow. I was born in '47 and my mom put in my baby book the receipt from the hospital with the charges. My care was $3.00 Moms room was $7.00 and they stayed for at least 5 days back then. Thanks for the memories,

Loved this video, felt like old school Paper and Moose. I will be honest, I felt the Hoarder House videos were really depressing.

It was nice to return to the old Paper and Moose that we know and love!
@PaperandMoose3 жыл бұрын
I never want to think that anything is beneath me. At my old corporate job, due to handling paper records, I was told that if I ever needed to carry a box from the archive room to my desk, I should get one of the maintenance men to carry it for me because I shouldn't "be seen" carry a box and that it was beneath my job description. Unless I had to move a large number of boxes, I got myself a cart and moved every single box myself. Having worked on a farm and a warehouse before, myself coming from a family history of rough labor jobs such as coal miners and factory workers, I feel that no job should be seen as too lowly to do & handing it off to someone else because I am "above them". Often times, those that carry on those types of jobs are the hardest workers in the group. Also, wish I could have garbage bag after garbage bag to dig thru on garbage days, but one can't dictate what is put out in the trash... wish I could, cause the mystery garbage bags would be never ending!

Back in the 50s, it was illegal to sell colored oleo in Wisconsin. You would have to mix in tablets of yellow dye if you wanted the appearance of butter.

Back in the 40s, I think due to pressure from the dairy industry, margarine could only be sold uncolored. It came in a plastic packet with a color bud (pod???) and you squeezed it to disperse the color. My brother and I fought over who got to squeeze it and it broke. Big trouble. Then you would put it in a mold to make it look like sticks of butter. I think it tasted like Crisco.
