Cereal boxes were regularly bowed out and ripped up, to say nothing of the poor cereal, as my bro and I dug in there for gold. Cereal? what cereal?
We'd get in trouble if we cut out the box before the cereal was gone...on one occasion my dad tossed the empty box of Honeycomb which included a pressed record of "Sugar" (appropriate) by the Archies. Gone...gone...We raises such a ruckus he yelled at us, stormed out and returned with a new 45 (record)
This was also a time when we'd use that glass bottled milk with the cardboard top-the milkman left it on our doorstep in a silver insulated box.
Boy, now I feel old.
