49264A short old film about going grocery shopping<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/d4H6STznnuc" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p> <p>Thank you <strong>MM</strong>!</p> <p>The flip-side of commercial refrigeration is keeping the cold at home. I&#39;m old enough to remember seeing ice boxes for home use. The standardization of electricity made the sales of refrigerators a real boom after WWII.</p> <p>Keeping cold foods cold, and frozen food frozen, made daily shopping a thing of the past. Being able to shop once a week, or even once a month, transformed everyday life!</p> eddstarrMay 23, 2022View
49263Roadrunner Meets Sonic<p>Posting it tommorow.</p> <p>There&#39;s also an ending I think you&#39;ll find hilarious!</p> Mr MagicMay 23, 2022View
49262Chip N Dale<p>Watched it last night, I think I would&#39;ve enjoyed it more had I watched the show as a kid. It was fun but it did seem like a poor man&#39;s Rojer Rabbit and sort of like Detetcive Pikachu as well. Its funny because my daugter has been watching the orignal cartoon on Disney Plus all day. I&#39;m surprised by the vibrant color and animation quality, visually I feel it blows a lot of similar era cartoons out of the water.</p> vkimoMay 23, 2022View

49259Chip N Dale<p>i&#39;ve seen on twitter posts that peter pan&#39;s backstory is based on bobby driscoll&#39;s harsh experience with disney, i can&#39;t say i was expecting that but yeah, it&#39;s awfully dark when you think about it.</p> BenjanimeMay 22, 2022View

49257A short old film about going grocery shopping<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_zfHW1I-2mE" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p> <p>Before the 1940&#39;s, grocery shopping usually involved canned goods - like La Choy Chow Mein.</p> <p>Growing up, I actually didn&#39;t know how novel the idea of a &quot;Supermarket&quot; truly was. In my grandparents day local markets supplied a limited selection of products. Fresh produce was seasonal and limited in distribution. Fresh dairy products were also limited to proximity to a dairy farm that offered delivery.</p> <p>Widespread availability of&nbsp;perishable foods only happened with&nbsp;transport temperature control systems (refrigeration) for&nbsp;trucks, tractor trailers,&nbsp;shipboard containers&nbsp;and railway cars. Commercial refrigeration in the 1940&#39;s made possible&nbsp;frozen foods, large supermarkets, and the modern restaurant industry. Refrigerated transport made the delivery of fresh produce anywhere in the country a possibility, regardless of the season!</p> eddstarrMay 21, 2022View
