Generation of Paste Eaters

This is one of those things that makes you want to say "hmmmmm". Really. I grew up in the early 70s and I recall for whatever stupid reason, kids my age (6-7) had this curiousity of eating paste. Why? I'm guilty, I did it a few times myself. I asked my husband (we are the same age) if he too was a paste eater...low and behold he was! Now that I'm an adult I think back to that age and ask myself what was so intriguing about sneaking a finger into the jar of paste and then sticking a dollop of that white mysterious stuff into my mouth! What was on mind! Anyways having children myself, I realize when shopping for school supplies I no longer see paste for sale on the shelves. At least I don't notice them. I see all types of glue but don't see that jar of white paste. Hmmmmmm...is it because that generation of paste eaters have ruined it for this generation? And what repercussions are we now experiencing because of that white gooey stuff. Holler if you too were part of the paste eating generation.
