Scent memory is a strange thing.

Bigelow's "Lemon Lift" tea has a scent disturbingly reminiscent of the hot plastic used in a '60s vintage Mattel Vac-U-Form, which my father used regularly in his plastic model-building hobby (and probably still uses today on his ever-evolving train diorama; that thing was built like a hot metal brick).

Because [safety hazard that's only a hazard to the careless] were easily accessible to a child (or adult) playing with the toy, it probably could not be sold today.

Sigh. Like so many other things I wish I could have had when I was growing up...
