My heart mourns for today's youth. The best thing about Veleeta was the wooden box that it came in. They made great string walkie talkeys. My next door neighbor and I made a set with two Velveeta boxes and a long piece of kite string that ran through a hole in the box, with knots tied on each end. They worked beautifully, and didn't even require batteries. My day's blackberry. Of course, you had to be within thirty or forty feet of each other for them to work. and you could hear each other without them anyway.

But man, they were cool!
