Thread Name: BS: Products that Never Caught On
Subject: RE: BS: Products that Never Caught On
A lot of great, weird stuff here. CatsPHiddle: I know that Hubba Bubba bubble gum still exists, but have you seen any cans of Hubba Bubba soda? Didn't think so? When it comes to food products, you could have a companion thread of stuff that has been around forever. Then you could talk about Bazooka Joe cartoons... the comic strip equvalent of Willeam Shatner. But, that would be thread drift. :-)

And in case people think this isn't a music thread... there was a Nash Rambler plant in Kenosha, Wisconsin when I was in my twenties:

"Over in Kenosha where the Ramblers grew
They had themselves a tough old crew
And Friday night, when the work was done
They liked to have a little fun

Friday night, at the Evergreen Bar
Pickin' out a tune on my old guitar
When you walk through the door you don't make no noise
Or you'll go dancin' to the tune of the Rambler Boys"
