Bubble Gum
Another classic item created in the year 1928, and its origin is as strange as you might expect. While it was created at the Fleer Chewing Gum Company, its creator was an accountant for the company by the name of Walter E. Diemer. Even stranger, the only reason his first batch was pink was that that was the only food coloring he had immediately available.
Unless it's an avocado refrigerator.
