They were made outta lead in my day.
valomorn
I don't remember and it makes me sad, because I frigging love opening things like this. It's most of the reason I enjoy painting a room.

I live in Australia. We still do this. It was usually a great joy to carve your initial into the foil beneath the lid before removing it.
YuffieK
Those tins were right up there with butter cookie ones for piggy banks
dacrunch
I'm confused. They still come with metal lids you need to pry off. What country is OP in?

And we liked it!
SugarSmack
I actually did like it! *pop* Satisfying.
RedroverRedrover
Ahhhhh yes!!! Forgot about that, when the milk bubble pops!
pradabenz88

TheVerraton
No because these type of cans were never a thing in my country.
DiggerPlease

My family was too poor to splurge on such luxuries.
AllTheGoodOnesWereAlreadyTaken
Same here. On the bright side we're probably healthier for it. But unfortunately I'm doing well enough to buy all the sugar crap I want now.
mcsweenart
Yeah. Now I feel like a big shot high roller everytime I serve my kids chocolate milk.
IHuggedaCorgiToday
No human ever opened this with their bare hands
whothehellareyouanyway
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AtLeastImWearingUnderwear
I remember when coke cans were made of tin.
FlappinBurgers
Remember when they were lined with lead? Haha, good times..... Wait, what are we talking about? Who is this? Where am I??
pb1kenobi
Not to mention, before pull tabs.
AtLeastImWearingUnderwear
Will I or won't I draw blood opening this can?
Whyyyymeeee
Some paprika powder brands still comes in similar cans.

This stuff was good and all, but Ovaltine was where it was at. And by it, I mean deliciousness and vitamins.
Pyrotechick
More Ovaltine please!
RickBo
always a spoon. then you scoop the mix and mix with the spoon.
pilotperson
Exactly. Why would you involve more cutlery than necessary?
RickBo
Thank You! At least SOMEONE around here gets it.
SethCronyn
The handle of a spoon.
AMediocreSubstituteForDave
why use a knife to pry then a spoon to scoop? spoon handle was the way to go
Provos
Same here. It was just more efficent.
hashtagidiot
Calm down, Facebook.
dagg3r

AGuyWithAMusicDegree
This is a bit better. Facebook would have said "Like if you have"
burgermei5ter
For something that existed 10 years ago.
YourFutureExHusband
God I'm old... I remember when it was called "Nestlé Quick."
rootwo
"It's magic in the making!" *sips a curly straw*
cogs
I remember just Chocolate & Banana, before Strawberry. (It was never "Quick", always "Quik" whether as a separate word or concatenated.)
LesserGodOfDadJokes
And there was no freaking bunny.
SmartHasTheBrainsButStupidHasTheBalls
Ah yes, me too. Good old days
Sakkura
It's regional. It was never called anything but Nesquik in Europe (and maybe the rest of the world). Example:
wheresthetoaster
Where's the rabbit!?
sebacarde
Same in south América
JonSnowTheBastid
Black currant??? Wtf well this is new
AMediocreSubstituteForDave
i know! we had chocolate and bananana (and later pink flavor) in the States. i think we missed out
DiastaticPower
What do you mean? What's it called now?
YourFutureExHusband
Oh. it's just "nesquik" now. Because kids are all about their portmanteaus these days.
DiastaticPower
It IS, isn't it? I don't drink the stuff, but I see it around all the time, and I never noticed the change.
Sakkura
Actually it's been Nesquik in Europe since the 1950s.
HAILS4TIN
Damn kids!
Thistly
What's a portmanteau?, we call them porties these days ;)
Sogeking
mithiwithi
Hell, I remember eating it straight out of the can.
AnotherImgurianEnglishman
What the fuck.
Hangontoyourbritches
And putting it on vanilla ice cream to make it chocolate.

*COUGH CHOKE WHEEEEEZE* Poof of chocolate dust flying out your mouth as you shovel in another scoop,

I still do and I'm 36.

Me too! Shot out to the '80 babies!
leftbanana
'50s babies were doing this too. In fact, I'd bet that any kid that had this in their house figured out how to do this.
MyOldUserNameMeantUndeadCocaineButNowItsThis
I miss Saturday morning cartoons. I don't know if it's because I'm older or if it's because a lot of them suck.
finallystoppedlurkingonimgur
A lot of them suck!
