Freihofer bread was inspected and guaranteed for freshness by their mascot, the Code Cop. Charles Freihofer's Bread Company was started in Troy, New York in 1913.  When Charles Freihofer opened the business, residents of Troy found free loaves of bread at their door steps for four days.  On the fifth day, customer could either decide to have bread delivered to their home via horse and wagon for five cents per loaf or discontinue the service.  The company specialized in pan bread, or French bread, and white loaves.  Freihofer used horse and wagon delivery until the early 1960's.  The company guaranteed freshness and that all products had been inspected to cover the guarantee.

"Lush" is a slang term that refers to a person who is often, or messily, drunk. The origin of the term is unclear. It first came into popular use in England in the 1820s, coinciding with the peak years of the buzzy London nightclub City of Lushington. The club's name may have been a tribute to Loschen, a potent German beer, or lush, a word in the Irish traveler lexicon meaning "to drink".

The Beat Generation was both a literary and counterculture movement that formed in the 1940s. They were a group that originally took inspiration from poets such as Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, and Michael McClure. The group used their art and poetry as a way to speak out against capitalism and materialism, and to call attention to the atrocities that took place during World War II. The “Beat” in their name was meant to signify the ways in which their spirit felt beaten down by the post-war capitalist system of America. However, the term “Beatnik” was not popularized until the 1960s when writer Herb Caen used it to describe someone coming from the Beat Generation and merged it with Russia's satellite “Sputnik”, which was in space at the time. The “Beatniks” created their own culture apart from the original Beat Movement with a change in style, language, and artistic expression. 

They were known for using a more alternative vocabulary including words such as “like”, “cool”, and “cat.” A phrase such as “like crazy” could help enhance a sentence and was used to describe something as “really good” or exciting. Often “Beatniks” were seen and characterized as wearing black turtlenecks, black berets and sporting goatees. They were known for experimenting with drugs, supporting sexual freedom, and living a bohemian lifestyle.
