Daily prompt: exposure

Had I been alive, I would have attended the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago. There, I would have seen the first of these edibles:

• Cream of Wheat
• Juicy Fruit Gum (don’t swallow)
• Quaker Oats
• Shredded Wheat
• Aunt Jemima pancake mix

I’m not a beer drinker so I would have passed on the Pabst Blue Ribbon beer.

I would have seen for the first time:

• the device making the plates for printing books in Braille
• the first model of the zipper (the clasp locker)
• an automatic dishwasher
• and, THE FERRIS WHEEL!!
