What's in grandmama's fridge? 1972





I remember this fridge. Boy it was outdated compared to the one in our own kitchen. This one was neat because of that handle on the door and the simple fact that this one would kill a kid if the kid got locked inside. Now picture this, govt cheese, potato salad, milk in a glass jar, misc pkgs of wax-paper-wrapped stuff, Pepsi, Blue Bonnet margarine, bottles of medicine in the door, celery in a jar of water, white paper wrapped bologna, and pyrex bowls of whatever she had made because the grandkids were coming to visit. But still with all that stuff inside, the first warning was..."stay away from that fridge, you will suffocate if you get locked in it". How would one have fit inside it is still a mystery to me. I hear you though grandmama. And to this day if we have to put a fridge to the curb for pickup, we take the door off. Don't think any modern fridges will lock a kid in, but hey....better safe than sorry.
