Which reminds me

I accidentally grabbed one of those as a kid; I thought I was going to die. Was that the product that had the "pinch an inch" commercials? The idea was that if a person could pinch an inch, they were fat and needed to drink diet soda.
In America today it would have to be adjusted. Or maybe instead of pinching at the waistline we would pinch our foreheads.-

Oh yeah! That's it, Special K cereal. There was also one with a girl on the back of a motorcycle. Standards certainly have changed.

You'll have to be more specific or find a link, that one is not ringing a bell.

Re: Back In My Day ..................
Apparently there were quite a few of these commercials in the 70s and 80s.

I'm very thankful to finish high school prior to computers being in every classroom and cellphones became computers. I miss the '90s.

Re: Back In My Day ..................
Same here as I graduated in the late '90s.
Don't know about the kid, but We had the full volume of World Book Encyclopedias in the den/rec room I posted about earlier in this thread. I found a picture on Amazon of them. What made this particular version so cool were all the page edges were shiny gold!
