A photocopy I made of the very old corn starch box that was in Mego's house. It's not as old as some on Ebay ince the printing was directly on the box and the older versions had a printed label that were affixed to the cardboard box underneath. This antique box has no UPC but it does have a circle stamp with the number 31 in it which meant it was 31 cents when it was sold. Compare that to the average price of $1.99 for a 16 oz package of corn starch in 2023. The box features several recipes ranging from Cheesecake, Lemon Meringue Pie, Fruit Glaze, Macaroni and Cheese, and Melting Moments.
A selection of remarks from the mundane to the occasional wit with some recipes, book selections, and various sundries included.
