I just came across this eBay auction for a random 1970's kids ringer t-shirt. The shirt was made by the company Wacky Packages which parodied common household products and were extremely popular among children in the 1970's. The shirt features 3 parodied products: JUJYFRUITS which was changed to changed to JERKYFRUITS (YUM nothing beats Jerkey flavored candy)! Yoo-Hoo was changed to Boo-Hoo and it states that its a tear flavored drink (YUM salty tears to wash down my meal)!! The last one is a knockoff of the Hostess Cupcakes and I cant quite read what is says but it looks like Filled With MUD??? Also there is a picture of a guy with a gun to his head getting force fed a cupcake??????? The craziest thing about this shirt is that it sold for $210.49!!!!!!!! The company is still around today and they continue to make parodied products for the masses.
