50%. Those Banquet dinners were 99¢ for the longest time. They got a little smaller every few years but I could often find 5 for $5 deals just a few years ago.
Interesting quiz. I mostly looked at the ad and guessed lol. 7/10
9/10--I made educated guesses on many of them just by looking at the overall style of the ads. I knew "Coke adds life" right away because I have been watching a lot of classic commercials on YouTube and have seen that slogan/jingle in several from the late 1970's.
10/10 Too easy.
8 out of 10. The right answer was my close second choice both times.
6/10
Was thrown off by #2; it looks disgusting!

5/10 Now, I'm hungry LOL
The #2 ad should be in James Lileks' "Gallery of Regrettable Food".
Two and three. Disclaimer--I don't like mayonnaise and I don't like stuff in my Jell-O.
You don’t even like a can of mixed fruit mixed in? I love plain jello but am also fond of a mixed fruit one since that’s what my aunt loved to make.
#2 just looked revolting! It makes me think of the disgusting dish they'd serve in my kid's school cafeteria back in the Nineties called beetle cap or tomato aspic with mayo. Just no!
Just give me plain old Jell-O...okay, you can put whipped cream on it. Or you csn just give me the container of whipped cream and a spoon. I'll let you have the mixed fruit--I never cared for it.
6/10.
