OT: What food or drink from your childhood do you remember most/wish would come back?

[SeattleMariners51445]

I think this thread or something similar may have existed at one point but I didn't find anything specifically about food.

For me, I'd have to say:

[mrmet6986]

YES SURGE!!!!!!

crystal Pepsi

[tragically fish]

Dunkaroos ? They are still available aren't they ?

[SeattleMariners51445]

Dunkaroos ? They are still available aren't they ?
I grew up eating them in New York, moved to Seattle when I was in the third grade and never saw them again. Either they're gone or they're an east coast thing. :(

I also miss Dunkin Donuts but we all know that still exists. I prefer that to Krispy Kreme, which we have here.

[Purdue_Pete]

I freaking loved Crystal Pepsi so much!!!!


http://crystalpepsi.net/crystalpepsi.jpg

[Clerk.]

Definitely Ecto Coolers. I think its still around under some other name, but if its not called 'Ecto Cooler' I ain't drinking it. I used to freeze them sometimes and eat them like popcicles.

[SeattleMariners51445]

It's more fun if you post pics guys!:)

[netwolf68]

Isn't Vault pretty much what Surge was? Many mornings I live on Vault Zero.

As for the topic, I was going with Crystal Pepsi also. :D

[SeattleMariners51445]

I had that when I was at a birthday party when I was like 3 or 4 and became addicted to it. It was so good, it was unbelievable. I told my mom to go get me the "green juice", I needed my fix of that stuff and would love to drink it again for nostalgia purposes.:D

I know these still exist but good memories are abundant with these:

I'm pretty sure the stuff you dunk Dunkaroos takes years to digest. Are Teddy Grams still around? Whatever happened to those cheese and crackers with the red plastic cheese spreader? I loved Bubblicious, Bubble Tape, and Fruit Stripe gum.

What I don't particularly miss are Spaghetti-Os, the macaroni in shape of dinosaurs and lunchables. I must've eaten 5,000 of those cheese and ham cracker sandwich ones.

My beverage of choice when I was a kid. Then one day it vanished from all Canadian store shelves. I was lucky enough to go to the US in 2007 and the first little town we stopped at (Conrad, Montana) I found Wild Cherry Pepsi in a convenience store. Pretty much everywhere we stopped I grabbed a bottle, and before we came home I bought two 12 cases of it. I think I have 21 left. I only drink it on special occasions. ;)

You have good taste, that stuff is great and I haven't had it in awhile but I'm fairly sure we still get it here.

Both :)

The cereal tasted a lot like frosted Cheerios from what I remember....

[Thorondor 33]

I think it is available everywhere in the States. You lucky SOBs. ;)

Next time you enjoy one, think of me rationing my 21 cans. :(:p

[SeattleMariners51445]

Fruitopia was another favorite east coast beverage for me, might still exist?
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f154/Z-Train86/Misc/Fruitopia.jpg

Jolly Rancher soda, delicious but I've only seen it at obscure gas station conveiniance stores around here:

I know it isn't all that old, but I really miss Vanilla Coke. that first sip of the stuff was always godly.

Is it still available in the states?

I'd offer to ship you a case but I'm fairly certain the shipping costs would be outrageous and if somebody dropped and/or punctured the package, it would arrive to you in a soaking disaster of a mess.:(

Coke owns Frutopia... you "should" see it everywhere.

Hell, we can even get the strawberry stuff in fountain at McDs now. :)

Thanks anyway. I actually did look into having some shipped to me but the shipping cost was to much to swallow.

We have talked about going back to the States. If we do I am coming back with more than two cases.

you hate the west coast. i hate the east coast. you guys have Jack In The Box, In'N'Out Burger, CiCi's, Carl Jr and Weinerschnitzel, we don't have any of that just the basic fast food chains.

and damn do you get anything in Canada? i'm pretty sure the vending machine at my work has more than 21 bottles of Wild Cherry Pepsi in it as we speak.

[SeattleMariners51445]

Yep, I still see Fruitopia up here. Not a huge fan of it, but I see it.

And I never knew Jolly Rancher made soda. It must be amazingly good tasting.
What is up with Washington? Why don't we get all this stuff that I loved eating/drinking when I lived on the east coast? This place sucks for junk food, damn hippies!:D

Jolly Rancher soda is the bomb IMO, I wish I could find a 12 pack of the cans and I'd drink it all the time. I drink at least one can of soda a day anyways.

[Leafsfan1967]

Use to like this when I was a kid. Not sure if it's still around, but if it is it's not available in many places, as I haven't seen it when I buy my kids their candy. Those sticks were goooood!

Lucky! :eek:


I remember I also had a bottle of Code Red Mountain Dew and Blue Pepsi when in Montana. Not huge fans of either, but I drank them when I was a kid so I had to have some just for the Hell of it. I betcha during my 5 days in Montana, I had 20 or more Wild Cherry Pepsi's. :D

[Thorondor 33]

I drink at least one can of soda a day anyways.

Me too. I'll pay for it when I am older. :-/

Jack In The Box is alright, nothing to write home about except the fries really and I've heard their tacos are amazing but I haven't tried them.

In 'N' Out Burger is a California phenomenom and I've only been there once on vacation. It lives up to the hype.

Never been to CiCi's but I've seen the commercial and had a friend in high school who worked there.

Carl's Jr. is another California thing, never ate there but I hear it's basically just Jack In The Box.

Weinerschnitzel, never heard of the place.

I see commercials ALL the time for delicous looking food and drinks (they have a bunch of different slurpee combinations, love those) at a restaurant called Sonic but there's only one in Washington and it's like 100 miles away.:(

I know! Those boxes were awesome and it was always fun to open the box and find your toy at the bottom rather than them throwing the toy on the top of a stupid greasy paper bag.

oh, and alpha bits cereal. i loved that stuff

The ones you pictured still exist but you're probably talking about the ones with a similar twist off bottle but they had a face on it right? I can't remember if it was Kool-Aid that made those but it was pretty much the same deal.

WOW! I remember those and I always got the Ninja Turtles ones. Never really liked the gumball eyes but the ice cream was the greatest!

[Purdue_Pete]

Just for the record - Happy Meals still often come in the classic "boxes". Depends on what promo is going on. My boys were collecting the Kung Fu Panda Toys and they came in boxes...

[LAZY]

True. The flavor in the gumballs wore out in a minute or two

[Y Ted Ginn Y?]

does anyone remember the wrestling ice creams you got at events??? Those things were in a class of bad @$$ only equaled by chuck norris.

PS - did anything rock more than Pizza day at school!?!

http://www.philben.net/images/blog/schoollunch.jpg


This is a little OT, but speaking of Happy Meals, do you guys remember getting glasses instead of toys?!!? Loved that, Hmmm... I can taste that whole milk now. Sometimes without even rinsing the Kool Aid out first. (My kids drink soy milk from a clean glass - how evil are we?) LOL

Damn, they still make Vault? It dried up from around here like a year ago. :(

Another one around here I can't find is Count Chocula. The grocery store by my house got some around Halloween, but they were all out like a week later. :cool:

[SeattleMariners51445]

Haha they served that same pizza at my elementary school and it was awful. Reminds me of the macaroni and cheese in a little cup they served. It was literally like glue and I know this because a friend of mine tried to dump it over a girl's head and it WOULDN'T come out. That didn't stop this particular girl from screaming at the top of her lungs however lol.

I don't remember getting glasses but I know my 23 year old sister did growing up.

They still make Vault, we have that and "Red Blitz" Vault which I like better at the grocery store I work at.

Haven't seen Count Chocula cereal or any of the stuff like that in awhile though. I'll have to check Safeway.

Jack in the Box is an instant crap machine- might as well eat it on the toilet. First one I ever ate at was in NY when I was a kid, but they may be gone from the east coast now.

In N Out is in some other states- I just saw it in Arizona, and yes, it's the hype bomb.

Is CiCi's the pizza place? If it is, I ate there in Indy- cardboard crap.

Carl's Jr is Hardees in the midwest, and I think it has other names elsewhere. Much better than Jack in the Box, especially that prime rib burger they had for a while. Mmmmmmmmmm...

Weinerschnitzel is some kind of hot dog place- never gone in, never seen anyone else go in.

Sonic is okay- kinda a slice of Americana, big in the midwest. Their limeades and similar flavors are really good. The food is okay.

[dbrooks55]

This reminded me of my favorite ice cream bars from when I was a kid...
WWF ice cream bars!!!
http://www.x-entertainment.com/articles/0939/1.jpg
These things were so good.

Ding ding ding...we have a winner!!!!! These thing were so good and so hard to find!!! You always had the excitement of which wrestler you got to!!!

Man I wish these would come back!!!

The thin layer of choloate...complimented the cookie very nicely!!!

For me, there were these little Hostess or Drakes cakes called "Hermits" and also Donkey Kong and Halvsies cereals.

Donkey Kong was basically Cap'n Crunch, but no one has matched the amazingness of Halvsies cereal.

That is my all-time favorite candy bar. Never liked the player, even when he signed with my favorite team, the California Angels. But that candy bar was the best. They could bring it back as a "Vlady Bar" and it would sell like crazy.

sometimes I wish they would return the taste to some foods and drink, like with Twinkies, Hostess orange and chocolate cupcakes and Very Fine orange juice. many of these don't taste the same as the old times.

[ricksfire]

We have Quisp, Count Chocula, Boo-Berry and Frankenberry up here. I thought it tasted a lot better when I was a kid.

Anyhow, I miss the Grape Pop-Tarts and Frosted Dutch Apple Pop-tarts

[DJBurnside]

I know! Those boxes were awesome and it was always fun to open the box and find your toy at the bottom rather than them throwing the toy on the top of a stupid greasy paper bag.

When I was a kid HappyMeals came in molded plastic "boxes" the shape of McDonalds characters. This was back when the burgeres still came in styrofoam

I don't even remember when they quit making the stuff...

I think this thread or something similar may have existed at one point but I didn't find anything specifically about food.

For me, I'd have to say:
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f154/Z-Train86/Misc/dunkaroos.jpg



Dunkaroos, Dunkaroos, you don't just dip 'em you Dunk-a-roo!!! Anyone remember that commercial?

I freaking loved Crystal Pepsi so much!!!!


http://crystalpepsi.net/crystalpepsi.jpg
Me too! I think its problem was that people expected it to be like Pepsi but it had a more citrusy taste. If they have marketed it as a whole other drink I think it may have caught on.
I remember when Happy Meals came in boxes! Now these poor kids get them in crappy paper bags. They don't know what they missed out on.The best ones were the ones that had little doors or tabs that popped out so you could make a little diorama! That said, as has been mentioned some promotions do still come in a box.:)

PS - did anything rock more than Pizza day at school!?!

http://www.philben.net/images/blog/schoollunch.jpg


I loved school lunch! I try to emulate that today by buying Banquet frozen meals and bringing them in to work. They have a pepperoni pizza one that is actually very close to the delicious school pizza we used to have. BTW, today I have the chicken fingers meal!:)

Tahitian Treat is still available. Canada Dry doesn't produce it here in the States, though (not sure if they used to). It's bottled by an independant bottling company that does stuff like 7-up, A&W root beer and RC cola. It's fairly hard to find, but a lot of convenience stores and Wal-Mart stores have it.

[UFCFan]

Also, I can't find a pic, but does anyone remember those things called Boppers? They were tube shaped, and had an outer "shell" that was almost like rice krispies and the inside had peanut buttery goodness.

Depends on what your tastes are. It's pretty damn ghetto pizza, if you can really even call it pizza, but it's probably one of the closest things out there to old school cafeteria pizza, so it has the nostalgia factor working in its favor.

[SacKingsFan]

OK, I don't know if this thread is making me hungry or home sick.

My favorites were the Crystal Pepsi and the TMNT Hostess pies.

Someone asked if Crystal tasted like regular. No, it was slightly different. I would call it Pepsi with a little bit of a citrus taste, but not like that crappy fake lime/lemon they have now.

The TMNT pies were the best. We had a Hostess bakery outlet on the way to school. I remember you could get 4 pies for like a $1. Ah, the good ol' days. (Note to self, there is a Hostess outlet across town, go there this weekend)

As for west coast fast food. If you have access to a Hardee's you have Carl's Jr. The menu's are a little different, but food is the same.

Can't find pics, but there were two apple flavored sodas that I loved; Aspen and Apple Slice. Apple Slice was a Pepsi product. I forget who made Aspen. That Green Apple Jolly Rancher soda someone posted has me mouth watering. Gotta look for some of that!

Another thing I miss is Charms Sweet and Sour Lollipops. I've looked for them everywhere around here and no dice. If any of you know of a seller, LMK. Blue Raspberry and Sour Apple were my faves.

Don't know if it's been posted but I used to love the Flintstone push-up pops.

This is from a google search that brought me to a message board. Here's the comment...

I was on a hunt for these things and couldn't find them anywhere in michigan, but i finally found them at Pars Ice Cream Distributer in Detroit, i bought 4 cases (like 90 bars).

17853 Conant
Detroit, MI 48212
(313) 366-3620

I live about an hour and a half away so i had to bring a crapload of ice and coolers so none of them melted. The box says these ten wrestlers are currently on the bars: Batista, Bobby Lashley, Carlito, CM Punk, Shawn Michaels, Edge, Jeff Hardy, John Cena, Rob Van Dam, & Triple H. But i've also gotten Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Rey Mysterio, and The Undertaker.

Also, I think this is the Maryland link...

If they exist, you OWE me one:) Don't know how it'll work, but you owe me one.

Oh. It was a message board that had messages from 2007. Not so long ago, so it leads me to believe that they DO still exist.

Man, those were damn good. The combination of the outer cookie part and the ice cream was ungodly.

Oh my god, I used to get these all summer long when the Ice Cream truck went buy. I shouldn't come into this thread anymore, I miss this stuff too much. :D

Edit:

This place has them for sale!
