1980 Topps via Hunt's Bread??
 
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/NmAuP...?feature=share

Anyone know anything about this? Was this a direct-to-Hunt's Bread thing for Topps? Was it Hunt's Bread grabbing some 1980 Topps already in circulation? Curious that the header is an OPC product, but the cards are straight Topps. TCDB has an entry where the cards are also OPC.

Curious to know anything anyone might know about this....

I saw that video on Facebook and noticed the header card. COMC had a different one from that set:

When I tried to look at eBay for these, I also found these....so Mrs. Butterworth was in on it too!!

We already knew they had deals with K-Mart and Squirt in '80...who knows what else is out there

Some other Topps co branded sets from the 80s. The Baseball and Boardwalk Run Makers set is mostly found with a slash between the B and B on the cards. But a set can be built with some difficulty without the slash. The Banks is from a set co branded with the Cubs and given as a premium to season ticket holders. That one is post 80s
