@@MaryStevens-tb2dz My mother gave me all of her Corning Ware sets and I still used them for stove top or microwave cooking. My neighbor was shocked when she saw my collection set.
Every time my daughter finds Tupperware at Goodwill or any thrift store she always buy it because I always had it in our home . I found one of her favorite pieces and got it holds pickles and drains the juice back in it once you get your pickles out .
I loved this!!!! So many memories.. I remember when Dad used his electric knife to carve meat. Fondue!!!! Wonderful!!! Never had butter warmers but would love those now-to dip crab and lobster in!!! You made me happy!! Thank you❤
I enjoyed watched this video, because most these items was in my mother's kitchen. Was? They still existed and slowing my mother been passing her 70s cooking tools to me. She take care of her things and they are in excellent condition. Her old pressure cooker is now collecting dust. She upgraded to the Instant Pot.
My mother was the classic Tupperware party host. So growing up with Tupperware Jello mode and travel storage container galore, and toys. And she still have them to this day. The original Tupperware are non-micowaveable, I learn the hard way.
As of today my mother kitchen is still in 70s avocado design, cabinet and all - custom made from Sears. Now her refrigerator is white because her avocado refrigerator died last year. She had that old refrigerator since I was in 7th grade. They don't make appliances that last for decades anymore.
I moved out of my parent's house in the late 1970's and the first thing that I did was to buy some various small appliances . I bought a toaster , an electric mixer , a blender , an electric knife , a Presto Hot Dogger , a popcorn popper , a pizza baker with a twelve inch stoneware , an electric can opener , a Presto Fry Baby , a hamburger cooker , an electric coffee maker , a meat slicer , an egg cooker , a waffle iron , and a crock pot . The only small appliances that I did not have were a toaster oven and a microwave oven as the microwave oven was too expensive for me to buy at the time ( over $400.00 ). I invited my mother over to my apartment and I showed her all of my small appliances , hoping that I would impress her . Instead she criticized me for having "too many appliances" and that all they did was "take up space" . In her mind the only small appliances that you needed was a microwave oven , a coffee maker , a blender , an electric mixer , a toaster , and an electric can opener .She also had an electric knife , which she stored in a drawer . She liked her electric can opener as the manual can openers hurt her hand .If you had more appliances than those that I mentioned , you had "too many appliances that took up space" .
Haven’t seen electric frying pans by Presto. My grandmother used hers to make sweet potatoes and then mom carried on till it was my turn to provide a thanksgiving staple every year and the Happy Day cast iron griddle with a grooved side and flat side. I’ve passed on that tradition by shopping in eBay to gift them as wedding or shower gifts
I try to collect things from this era. It's comforting to me because I grew up with them around me. Why don't they make appliances with colour anymore? All you can get is black or stainless, sucks. I had to get a new set when we moved last summer and I had to get white washer and dryer and stainless fridge. I'd rather have a harvest gold or avacado one any day!
I think those popcorn makers were more of a 1960s thing. At least in my family, it was all Jiffy Pop popcorn by the 1970s. Though I did miss being able to watch it pop. Also anything with "microwave" in the name, wasn't much in the 1970s. In the 1970s less then 1% of homes had microwaves, and they were big, clunky, expensive devices with major safety concerns. Microwave popularity took off in the 1980s and 90s.
New crock pots cook 20 degrees hotter than original crock pots. The 20 degrees hotter make spaghetti sauce dry out, am afraid to go away & leave crockpot cooking.
All kitchen appliances were often Avocado green. I got two fondue sets when my partner and I moved in together as house warming gifts in 1968. We had electric knives in the 1950's; they STILL make them. The two blades were used together, not separately. I sold a ton of lucite cookbook holders in the 70's, along with Copco plastic wall mounted spice racks. In the 70's my kitchen was green white and orange and I had Copco enameled cast iron cookware with teak handles in bright orange hanging on a pot rack. Pyrex measuring cups are still a kitchen staple, I just bought a set not long ago. Cast iron is still popular, I have my Mother's Corn Stick patterned cast iron piece and I'm 74. Cast Iron has been popular since 220AD, it is ubiquitous! Tupperware just went out of business in 2024. We used to have Tupperware Parties in the gay community in the 80's, we had a ball! Egg coddlers are STILL available in lots of porcelain patterns. I have Evesham egg coddlers, in my cupboard today! This is yet another grossly inaccurate list on TH-cam.
Mine today are the old classic Tupperware cannister set. You see my mother was once the host goddesses of the neighborhood Tupperware parties. I wonder is it because music, food, and alcohol was involved at her mixed Tupperware parties.
i still have most of these things. i decided usa had lots of sick and fat people so i went back to using old recipes in the box. weight and illnesses got better. something to be said for the old ways. makes life run smoothly 🎉. try it.
I love the colored appliances.
I still have many pieces of corning ware and use them

Me too
I still use my cornflower blue casserole dishes for meals
I still have the crockpot I got in 1977 as a wedding gift.

I remember most of these items
Well, I don't know where this guy comes from, but half of this stuff is used today.
So true
Yes! I have a crock pot
We still have a cannister set and crockpot

She take care of her things and they are in excellent condition. Her old pressure cooker is now collecting dust. She upgraded to the Instant Pot.
My mother had a pressure cooker use used constantly in the 1950's The only thing she ever replaced every few years was the rubber seal in the lid.
A lot of these were around way before the 70's. Cast iron skillets, copper molds, canisters, pressure cookers, and on!
My mother was the classic Tupperware party host. So growing up with Tupperware Jello mode and travel storage container galore, and toys. And she still have them to this day. The original Tupperware are non-micowaveable, I learn the hard way.
I have four crock pots in different sizes. Make that 5 of them. Use them during holidays for everything.
I'd take the green appliances over anything made today. Those things are probably still working
My yellow pressure cooker still works. Sometimes you need the stovetop pressure cooker over the Instant Pot.
My mother had an avocado green stove, refrigerator, washer and dryer..
She also drove an avocado green station wagon😮
As of today my mother kitchen is still in 70s avocado design, cabinet and all - custom made from Sears. Now her refrigerator is white because her avocado refrigerator died last year. She had that old refrigerator since I was in 7th grade. They don't make appliances that last for decades anymore.
I have a crockpot but it seems today’s crockpots run hotter, so I don’t run it all day while at work.
yes we used these almost every day
My mom got the avocado green crock pot for her wedding in 1968. It lasted until 2012. It died 2 months after she did.
Thank you for sharing

Coppertone was the brown color. My moms kitchen was done in it.

Uhm we still have crackpots... not just the ones from the 70s

I still use a cast iron pan every day. The video clip at the very end is from 1949.
uhhh...doesnt everyone still have cannisters?

No not everyone. I don’t have any.
@@territawater5293
Agreed …
@@territawater5293 interesting! i can honestly say in my life at least, f42 , i always see them
@@janespring9224 no, I don’t have an abundance of counter space so I keep flour, sugar etc in original bags and then I put those into ziplock bags
That's when not only were appliances were made well THEY WERE MADE IN THE GOOD OLD U.S.A. I still have a working electric , gotten at Xmas in 1972.
i still have most of these things. i decided usa had lots of sick and fat people so i went back to using old recipes in the box. weight and illnesses got better. something to be said for the old ways. makes life run smoothly 🎉. try it.
Just wondering why all the people, except on the fondue boxes look like they are dressed for the 50’s?
These are from the 70s
You mean you can't get an electric can opener nowadays? What's the world coming to?
Yes 2024 just purchased one siding my arthritic hands a dream to use
I guess we where poor because everything was white and white
All of these were from the 80’s not the 70’s. How old is the person making this video? 🤦🏻♀️
