Too young to drink coffee then. They look cute! I think my mother just poured off the cream from the top of the milk bottles the milkman left on our back porch...

My parents both always drank their coffee straight black. We did get milk in (quart) glass bottles from a local dairy.

Absolutely, ‘back in the day’ as a kid in a restaurant, my brother and I could drink them as fast as they could bring them out…😊. Mom and dad would frown on us of course…☹️

I remember. Does that mean I'm ancient and not just old.
