The Big Delivery Wagon

Sometimes a pickle is just a pickle. 
--Sigmund Freud.

A fascinating look at the ways and means of food distribution in 1951, courtesy of the H. J. Heinz Company.  Funny thing, apart from ketchup, vinegar, pickles, and the eponymous steak sauce, I can hardly think of any of the other 57 varieties that are sold in stores now - I'm not sure I even remember seeing much else as a kid in the 1960's.  I wonder why that is.

When he mentioned "ripe, luscious beauties" at 2:54, I thought he meant the 2 lads loading the baskets of tomatoes LOL!
