I just saw on a FB site that the old Nabisco factory on the Boulevard is being demolished. My grandad's last job was as a loading dock worker there in the early 1960s. When he and my grandmom would visit, they usually brought along some samples from the factory. Had to do some research to reveal the name of some resin encased soft chocolate cookies wrapped in cellophane they always showed up with for us kids. I say samples because in the old days if a box dropped or was damaged on the loading docks, it was considered waste and the loading dock workers helped themselves to the "damaged" goods. The company stopped the practice when too many boxes were ending up damaged and on the way home in the trunk of the workers. Below the commercial of a product not easily missed by management. Too many made and or not too many sold? Not a popular product? Not an outstanding product from my POV, too many free samples. LOL
