OMG, Perkins Paste!! I read your post and immediately could smell the
contents of that little pink pot. Very distinctive smell. The wikipedia
article is a little off - it was a lot thicker than PVA glue.
They're right about the eating, though - there was always at least one kid
in the class who used to eat the Perkins Paste. I never ate mine. I seem to
recall that the white "handle" on the lid usually looked quite well chewed
by the end of the school term, though <vbg>
Perkins was just the best - Clag just wasn't right, gloppy stuff and a bad
smell (though also distinctive!).
