oleo being colored....haven't thought of that in years. Born and raised on Minnesota farm....the dairy industry used that tactic to keep the disgusting margarine being sold. Still a loyal to butter...
Looks at love handles and laughs |

I didn't know that about the butter. I was born in the depression so I didn't know alot of what happened then.Didn't mean to put these two together.

I was born in 40, but I remember at the end of the war, mom using the ration stamps

Mom and Dad told about some of the things when I got a little bit older and could understand.

Yep, same here. Stories about four other couples and them all having dinner together 3 times a week just to make sure everyone was getting some really good meals. Pop worked for the Pennsy RR and was lucky to have always had a good job.

Hello everyone, depression little before my time but love to hear stories.I like turnip ,and sqaush too.Were I live I get the smell from the cookie factory |

I don't have any bakery's close by me, so there is no good smells unless I do it.

Yes, most people did. Times were tough but they got thru it. I dont know if todays kids could. I, to this day can walk thru a woods and point out the various edible plants. Between what pop taught me and what I learned from scouting I would not starve.

I don't know if the kid's today could handle. They have never been through it. I don't know as much as you do about plants that are edible, but, I do know berries and root plants.

Hi everyone
|
|
|
|
There ya go. Those lessons as kids never went away. It was always kind of interesting to me cause pop would always tell interesting stories along the way, like his grand parents that lived in the mountains of Pa always had their house open so any indian could come in for the night and be warm. Just how things were done back then.
