Another popular kitchen item that came about in the 70s was Corelle. My parents and my in-laws had the green blossom pattern. Some of those patterns are worth a lot today!
I still use Corelle, the plain white version. They are so sturdy but if you do break one, you will be cleaning up tiny shards for weeks!
My kitchen is filled with Corelle bowls of every size ... the stuff is nearly indestructible ...
Yep, my mom had corelle and me and at least one sister still use corelle.
