I remember in the 70s when some rice was still sold in cloth bags, there were some rice bag shirts made as a nostalgic thing. What I want to know is if anyone remembers kamaboko slippers. Not *want* to remember those things, but at least remembers them. At least they kept our feet up out of the mud!
