What an ad, playing up to the resurgence in home canning in the early 70s and rustic to the point of horribly ugly cabinets that look like they were made out of a recycled barn or something. Nobody that I know of or knew of used the old zinc caps on jars in modern day canning, but that is what these lids look like, yet I can't see the red rubber ring where the jar meets the lid. I don't know what's in those jars on the lower shelf, but if it's not dried pasta, it sure is ugly food; nothing I would want to put on display. Maybe the first jar is garbanzos. Even the stuff in the jar in the little girl's lap looks unidentifiable as something that is supposed to be edible unless those are very ugly apply slices. Finally, do big feet run in that family or what? If there were ever two women who never should have had side shots of their feet, these are at or near the front of the line.

Why would they put so much ugliness around their dishwasher? The lies in the text are ugly enough; saying that the machine disposes of food particles is a partial truth at best but to say it pre-scrapes is a lie. Of course, as close to the land as this family seems to be living, any scraps not licked off the plates, either by humans or the dog, would probably be fed to the pigs anyway.
 
The contents of some of those bottles looks like what is in specimen jars in a biology lab!Don't know if I would want to eat what is in her bottles!I don't trust home canned food unless I know the person that canned it really well!
 
Have never ever noticed any of those jars or its contents in all the years this ad has been resurfacing. The cabinets don't bother me that much.
 
All the BEST Ads just go right by me, when don't have th

Wow, you guys are pointing out a lot of things in that ad, I'd never noticed!

All that I really saw in it, and in pretty minor detail, was just the dishwasher...

I hope it comes around again...!
