Opening day parade of the Second Street tunnel, downtown Los Angeles, 1924

Opening day parade of the Second Street tunnel, downtown Los Angeles, 1924Angelenos must have been happy to see the opening of the 2nd Street tunnel (July 25th, 1924) because they threw a parade. However, the thing that caught my eye was the billboard at the top advertising “EAT CARNATION MUSH.” Who the hell packages a food product and calls it “mush”??? I had to Google that one! Turns out, it was a type of whole wheat breakfast cereal. Seriously, could they have picked a worse name?
