    and they were more healthy back then because of the crap they ate. The food they ate back then was all natural with a occasional

    re: the Cannery picture. About 43 workers on that dock.
    One glaring detail hit me immediately. See it?






    Virtually all the men are posing, yet the women attend to work.

    I did notice the women continuing to work as the men pose. Also, of the 43 workers, men and women, I see only 4 with NO HAT, they are men or boys.

    Different times for sure.
