    I stumbled across this on a boring evening surfing TH-cam, and it lead me down a rabbit hole watching James Gregory's videos for the next several hours, until I had to force myself to cut it off and go to bed. Gregory is beyond hilarious. It's been a long time since I laughed this hard. I shared one of his clips ("Everybody Has This One Relative") with my wife who is out of town, and she laughed until she cried.

      I remember in the 50s when margarine could only be sold in Minnesota (a dairy state) without the yellow food coloring. It was white and looked like Crisco. It came in a thick plastic bag with a small bubble of food coloring inside that you had to break open by squeezing it and then knead the bag until the coloring was dispersed and you cut the bag open and squeezed it into a bowl.
