Can you guess how much holiday grocery ingredients cost in the '50s? - MeTV

I wish we could go back to these prices. 🤑 I'm just feeding myself and that's bad enough. Must be awful for families.

We have an oft repeated quote in our family, taken from my grandfather many years ago. Whenever we want to take note of how a price have risen, we just say "I'll be damned if I'm going to pay 50 cents a pound for ham!"

''Here's the moment of truth. You got 2 out of 10'' ------I got 2 and 9 right. The rest, wrong.

7/10... and I take issue with some of the answers, because it depends of *which year* the prices were taken from... and eggs were 79 cents a dozen? I *think* remember them being cheaper in the early 1960s... but then again... WHICH YEAR? There were prices spikes based on varying circumstances...

I distinctly recall a loaf of Wonder Bread being under 30 cents, a quart of milk was 25 cents, a quart of chocolate milk was 35 cents, Hostess cupcakes 10 cents, ice cream cups 10 cents and 15 cents, etc. ...

Yeah, I agree with ya on the eggs…that didn’t seem quite right to me either 👍

It's no yolk... I scrambled to make sense of that price, but the results left me hard-boiled! I think they actually poached the price from a 1970s grocery ad! Well, I'll keep my sunny side up, because I'm omelet it get to me... Gee, it's been a while since I made these puns, and they've left me fried...

Do you keep them in a family albumen?

No, but they are safe in their shells... Have I cracked you up yet, or do you want to play "dozens"?

A little before I started pricing grocery items. 5 out of 10 (remember 5 & 10's though). #9- I'm guessing they mean the average apple pie has 2lbs of apples in it 🍎🍎

Same as me. I wasn't born until 1957.

That would be a very heavy Apple Pie then, with all the other ingredients added in. Maybe 3 or 4 pounds.

I was born in 1956, so I remember 50s prices not in dollars and cents but in pouts, sulks and foot-stamps.
