For those of us in the good ol’ U.S. of A, Independence Day celebration time is almost here (that’s the 4th of July in case you’re reading this from foreign shores).  And that means that for those of us not spending the day looking for fingers blown off by illegal fireworks, it’s cookout time!  So invite your friends and family over (Except for your second cousin Fred.  Holy crap, that guy’s a boor.) and let’s consume some charred flesh!

First things first: let’s fire up the grill!  (Kingsford Match Light charcoal, 1981)

Who’s up for some hot diggity dogs??? (Armour Franks, 1956)

Or maybe burgers are more your style?  Don’t forget the ketchup/catsup! (Hunt’s Tomato Catsup, 1954)

I don’t know about you, but cleaning all those dirty glasses can be a real drag.  So break out the plastic and raise a big middle finger to the planet. (Dixie Cups, 1954)

And finally, let’s not forget the refreshments.  I brought some soda for the kiddies… (Coca-Cola, 1967)

And something with a little more kick for the folks. (Schlitz beer, 1964)

I almost forgot – you can’t go home without taking some leftovers! (Tupperware, 1962)
