Oh mom. How can you deny your son at a chance for healthy tin can food?!Now we just need Olive Oyl shouting, "Oh Popeye".
When I was a kid I grew up in a mining village, or "company town" though not like the ones in coal country, and people got paid in real money and not company script. (reference: 16 Tons not written by but sang by Tennessee Ernie Ford) Yes, dear people, I'm older than dirt, which @barfle invented.
Anywho, we had a "commissary" which would equate to a general store in days of old. One day there popped up on the shelf Popeye Spinach, a tiny thing as I recall, for the sum of 50 cents per can. Had a pic of Popeye on the can. Well, 50 cents was a fair sum of money, but I was intrigued and asked my Mom to buy me one. I never figured to open it or actually eat it. She basically said no way. lol.
Well, she's a Buddhist, so how about a place in the Realms of Samsara . . .
I remember Popeye Spinach. Seems to have been short-lived.Now we just need Olive Oyl shouting, "Oh Popeye".

Clearly, you need a better shelf for the odd-sized stuff. There’s a fair-sized open space in my shelving that is occupied by clutter (next week, honest) that is intended to house a record cleaner. There will be some room for material that’s up to 24” high.I have a cd cabinet and a surround cabinet full of cd sets with dvd or blu ray or standalones, this is all my outsize surround stuff, on the floor under my printer table

Popeye Spinach is alive & well on all the grocers in my area. Bought a can maybe 3 months ago.I remember Popeye Spinach. Seems to have been short-lived.
Seriously there is nowhere else in the room these can go, i’m lucky they’re allowed where they areClearly, you need a better shelf for the odd-sized stuff.

When I was a toddler one the two things my mother could guarantee to get me to eat was Spinach!Oh mom. How can you deny your son at a chance for healthy tin can food?!
I guess you over came this some how because your history of attacking the redwood trees of Florida post hurricane is legendary on this forum.
Don’t the Aussies have their own version “vegemite”?When I was a toddler one the two things my mother could guarantee to get me to eat was Spinach!
....and the other was bread/toast with Marmite on it (not sure if you can get Marmite anywhere other than the UK) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmite
Yeah. Googling I see that vegemite is thicker. Never eaten either one though.Don’t the Aussies have their own version “vegemite”?
Yes its sort of Marmite-ish I prefer Marmite. Weirdly I did a 3 month contract for an Electronics company opposite the Bass factory in Burton-on-Trent where Marmite was originally made with the yeast remnants from brewing beer!Don’t the Aussies have their own version “vegemite”?
