You have to be of a certain age to remember "generic food." Those specific labels were were from Ralph's in Southern California, and they had a whole aisle with nothing but those cans and other items with the horizontal two-tone blue stripe. We had a giant boulder in my home town that everyone spray painted with birthdays and other announcements, and the best one ever was when someone spraypainted the blue stripe and "Rock" in big letters. I helped in a follow up painting the following night to put a UPC code on it...
Take a careful look at the video, and you'll see Otto take a can out of the fridge labeled simply "Food" We fell out of our seats when we first saw that...
