Wow. Not usually a fan of resurrecting old posts, but this is fantastic. This should be a sticky.

The lists of when products were introduced is the coolest feature. Surprised to see a no-cal soft drink (Kirsch's Ginger Ale) way back in 1952.


But I must disagree with Royal Crown Cola in '59. I think it was considerably earlier.

FYI RE: Royal Crown Cola----U R correct!

RC Cola, also known as Royal Crown Cola, is a cola-flavored soft drink developed in 1905 by
Claud A. Hatcher, a pharmacist in Columbus, Georgia, United States.

Excellent find!!! Going to spend some time on it
You could see that meals were more elaborate, and definitely mostly cooked from scratch AT HOME .

Growing up in the 50's and looking at the 50's 60's and 70's, we NEVER had any of the foods listed. Half of them I never heard of.
