Half and Half Slogan Question

tobyhys33

Does anyone know what ever happened to the Half and Half slogan "A cargo of contentment in every bowl" being placed on all Half and Half packaging?  When/why this was removed from the packaging?

My guess here, and it’s just a guess, is that it was removed so it was more easily marketed as a roll-your-own cigarette tobacco.

I can't shed much light on your question. I have several pocket tins in my collection and the older ones have that slogan, but the newer ones don't and they are all old. You may be able to find some answers on c . That is my go to source on collecting tins. May help, but may take some digging.

That saying must be racist, sexist, transphobic, and binary...that would be my guess.

Or, the slogan just made no sense.

@vtgrad2003 I think you only scratched the surface, it has to be worse than that,( "its tobacco!!!) it's a threat to democracy yada, yada, yada
