3. Remember this commercial? (I'm betting most of you don't LOL!!!!! just watch to see why)

Maybe Brim had some of the same stuff that was in Etheral Cereal:

7. I thought that was a legit commercial!

Until I got to the end! Very funny!

One can really see the Peter Max influence in the Brim commercial.

17. It was one of the funniest films I ever saw, and no one has ever heard of it

I had two black roommates in college, and they took me to see it. All the black folks knew of it, of course.

Interestingly enough, it was made by Robert Downey, Sr.

[A Simple Game]

4. Special brew, only available in Colorado and Washington. n/t

[Boom Sound 416]

5. I just know you fill it to the rim

[RebelOne]

6. I remember Brim coffee. Had it and didn't like it. n/t

[Iggo]

8. Fill it to the rim.

[LiberalElite]

9. I knew someone who liked to say-

(inspired by the slogan "Fill it to the rim with Brim&quot "Fill it to the top with slop".

[Frank Cannon]

10. Beverage ads were psychedelic in the '70s.

I guess advertisers thought dropping acid made you thirsty.

[OrwellwasRight]

11. Is General Foods even a company any more?

Or did it die like Dolly Madison, Walker Scott, and Kenner?

[OrwellwasRight]

12. Is Brim worth a second cup, though?

[PasadenaTrudy]

13. Oh dear, I remember this commercial n/t

[orleans]

14. obviously caffeine wasn't in it. that's why you had to fill it to the rim--

a regular cup of it wasn't satisfying. neither was it when you filled it to the rim. brim. (gone the way of the dinosaur)

15. The caffeine was replaced with LSD on a 1:1 basis

[Maraya1969]

19. Wow! I was waiting for someone to explain it. Did it

make people hallucinate and everything? I have to ask my mother if she ever drank it.

Hey wait! I just looked it up and I can find nothing about LSD

[jmowreader]

20. They're not going to TELL you about the LSD, now are they?

According to Wikipedia Brim was made between 1961 and 1995. It takes a few years for a product to get popular after it's introduced and a few years after it becomes unpopular for it to be discontinued...that would mean Brim was responsible for the elections of Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan and Poppy Bush.

16. Fill it to the rim with brim.

21. Apparently, a tiny tiny drop of Syd Barrett's sweat.

Which would make for an interesting drink, no doubt, if only they made a caffeinated version. Because without the caffeine .... what's the point?
