OK so that's interesting

it's basically powdered milk?

[crossfire.livejournal.com]

Yes but it's grand.

I'm kinda surprised cause I just assumed it was something more ... processed :)

The tech involved in making today's mostly-artificial creamers is really quite interesting...but it's also fairly new. Back in 1953, all they could do was dry and stabilize dairy.

I have to admit I'm kind of curious what Pream tasted like.

have you ever tried making coffee with noninstant powdered milk? when I was being a hippy living off the grid I did it for a while ... let me just say I decided it was altogether preferable to learn to like it black.

But it's grand!

You can have the suit, but I will have to fight you for the coffee maker (even though I don't even quite understand how it works)!

And after he 'preamed' it he 'bourboned' it.

Heh, I always did love William Holden.

I don't see anywhere it says Pream is a Borden product, but the cow drawing looks an awful lot like Elsie. I couldn't find anything about its history on the web (and the Urban Dictionary definition was NOT helpful!) Maybe that's why Pream isn't around anymore: copyright infringement lawsuit.

Yes

Sorry, should have put this in one of my other comments. This ad is proof positive that William Holden could make anything sexy.
