In the late 60s I purchased a popcorn maker manufactured by Republic Molding. It’s made of a hard plastic and I paid under $1.00 for it. It’s for micro popping and is the very best popper. One of my prized kitchen products!
I was given a gift of several of your freezit containers in 1980. Here we are 41 years later and I’m still using the same containers. I’ve used them thousands and thousands of times over the years and even boiled water in them in the microwave hundreds and hundreds of times. And they are as good now as when they were gifted to me. One of the highlights for me is they are not made in china! I tell people about your product all the time and how long I have had them.
I lived nearby and worked as a warehouse assistant, as a teenager, from 1958-1960. It was a great learning experience
