This not as vintage as AC_Dwyer's M*A*S*H beer can from 1984 (http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/1804-4077th-mash-beer-can-has-been-in-the), and I had to crop the photo tightly because my refrigerator is not as clean as his, but this is a genuine, unopened can of Buzz cola from 2007. It was sold at a local 7-11 when "The Simpsons Movie" came out. The store was made up to look like a Kwik-E-Mart. It was probably hazardous to one's health to drink it back then; can't imagine what it would be like now... ;-)

Do you also have a box of Krusty-Os cereal in the cupboard?
I remember when they made up some of the 7/11's around the country to look like the Kwik-E-Mart. That was a great marketing campaign.
