Question:What does this object represent for you?
Answer: Flavor Aid juice were sold in small bags, it was like a powder concentrate, you would mix it in the water. We loved to drink them. We would call it Fjavorajt, i remember we liked to stick our tongues into a bag (which our parents disapproved), and our tongues would end up colored. From the position of today's concern of what we eat, about organic food and calories. these chemical products wouldn't certainly gain our sympathies, but we drank, licked, enjoyed Fjavorajt and here we are, pretty, healthy grownups in the new century!

Question:Why did you donate the object?
Answer: We loved these juices. Beside some childish joy I feel every time I see this box, it also has one more special meaning. We kept letters in it. At the beginning of nineties, I would hide and read letters of my sister and her boyfriend who was in the army at the time. That's why inside there are army stickers. This box is more of a memory and moving keepsake to the beginning of the nineties, when we already yearned for old times, because then everything started to fall apart...
