Did You Know?
| Trivia | While Don Messick is heard on some prints of the cartoon, his voice was a "looping" of the scene about the pressure cooker. The original narration referenced the year 1975 as being the "tomorrow" of the title, so the line was redone by Messick (Frank Graham having died years before) to advance the year of the future to 2050.

| Goofs | When the table with the automatic sandwich maker is first shown, the salami and bread plates are in the middle of the table. Then, before the arms extend from the appliance, the plates are on each side of the sandwich maker. The machine then slices the bread and salami into two stacks and shuffles them like a deck of cards. In the next shot, when the sandwich maker is "dealing" out the combined stack of components, only bread slices hit the plates with no sandwiches being made; plus, the remaining loaf of bread and salami both have vanished.
