15. Oshkosh B'gosh ...
... is a clothing line. I remember them best as the overalls my cantankerous old farming grandpa wore.

Kinda funny to see they're still around *AND* that they have an online store..!

5. BOUDREAUX'S BUTT PASTE
Edited on Tue Mar-22-05 01:38 PM by BOSSHOG
That might be the "best" product Name. Its a diaper rash ointment manufactured by George Boudreaux P. D. in Covington, La, a suburb of New Orleans. Some may need it after a night in the French Quarter.

14. Cyclists use it.
instead of "Chamois Butt'r" to prevent chafing.

Of course, I read that some use Noxema.
I think that wass a cruel joke on someone's part (WOOOOOOO-HOOOOO!)

11. The Passion Recut
What, like the man wasn't cut up enough in the first release, he's gotta be recut?

(Well, I guess the first try allegedly didn't finish him off, eh?)

19. Funniest: "Odorono" deodorant
Edited on Tue Mar-22-05 02:15 PM by Seabiscuit
Boudreaux's Butt Paste a close second. And the best product available for babies' diaper rash (it really works, and fast).

24. Probably the most unfortunate product name was
"Aydes." They were these caramel type candies that suppressed the apetite. Came out long before the epidemic but didn't last for long afterwards.
