I recently acquired this full unopened 130 year old cork top bottle of Durkee challenge celery salt. The challenge was open to any spice company who could beat the fresh flavor of Durkee. I guess the original Pepsi challenge was not so original as they would have us believe. Oh well, here are the pictures- enjoy!

Yeah, I've heard of that show too, and thought there was probably more wholesome in those old foods than what's being pumped out today (or vise-verse).

Hi RobbyBobby!
I'd guess and say a three year series for this show is very much a long shot! --On the episode I watched they opened, boiled, and ate pasta-like noodles from a pre-WWII box. They both enjoyed the noodles too. Granted this was probably the lowest risk item they consumed lately, but yes, I think they've lost their noodle,+ marbles, but probably have some kind of iron stomach immune system!:) ...If I ever I happen upon the name of this program I'll let you know. --Len
