First time hearing from Lodge and Isotune. Thx, I just checked those out and will remember them if I need those.

Heck! That is 30 years worth of socks right there...

Vitamix. I got a new one about a year ago and it is an absolute beast and a half. Blender food processor combo and worth every single penny.

The answer to this question is always the same for me. At least, lodge 12-in cast iron skillet. It is no mess, no fuss, just a great quality product that won't let you down, very reasonably priced, and will probably outlive you.

Is it the hunk of fucking cast iron. Be kind of hard for it not to.

After that I can say things like darn tough socks, Leatherman multi-tools, isotunes headphones , and other things would lifetime warranties that they do a great job of honoring.

Do Air Jordans last that long??

Some other symptoms you might not notice include developmental delays, learning difficulties, headaches, difficulty with memory or concentration. Don't let me hold you back from using cheap products that science proves are not good for your health. You've been fine for 40 years right? Lol

I mean, how long of a life are we talking? Could technically still be BIFL…

New balance trail shoes. You can pick them up for around $50 online

BTW, Tupperware is still making business in Ruzzia.

This. Worked a retail/warehouse job where I was on my feet 8-10 hours a day for 2 years. Wore them almost every day not to mention the multiple day backpacking trips I’ve taken them on. Sole still in good condition and I got the vents so they never stay wet for long. You can find them on Amazon far under the msrp regularly. By far the most comfortable boot I’ve ever worn.

For sneakers I really only get the Made In USA or UK New Balance sneakers. And even then, I only get them in wide.

Since all the cool kids wear them now I have to buy a couple pairs at a time.

$30? The shoe repair store I went to charged $90 for it

Other than the plastic leaching issues and the fact that this isn’t BIFL, they don’t do a good job keeping things fresh compared to modern equivalents! Just get the glass ones with locking tops and THOSE are BIFL for sure.

That is true. But it's been like 40ish years. I suppose I could grow a third head tomorrow due to pretty much continuous use of the red Tupperware lunchbox I started using in first grade. I'll let you know if that happens.

Shoot, really? I've got Tupperware going back 40 years, if not more....and dang-it, I just organized all of it! Now you're telling me I've got to dump it...sigh.

How far back is "too far" to be safe? I probably have a piece from every set starting a decade ago, back to 40+ years.

Or is it one of those things where I should just move them to the garage/woodshop and start using glass containers?

you should delete your post...

No, ew... there is no way that shit is safe to eat out of any more.

Yep, look at the lids now cause they are going to be gone. To a place in the cupboard, with no entrance were skewing sticks be, with the only good veggie peeler and 1/4 tsp dance free.

leaded koolaid is nostalgic at this point

And they overpaid.

My parents were big fans of Equal (aspartame), Imperial Margarine, Diet Coke, and powdered butter flavor seasoning. My childhood Koolaid was powered by little blue packets.

Mmm, old fashioned BPA and other good stuff!

Definitely make sure you store fatty and acidic stuff in there to get the maximum benefit from all the classic chemicals.

Those pitchers, damn
