i remember them, they fucking ruled

I can feel the burning lava in my mouth just looking at that pic

>>21530196
i remember those pieces of shit. i saw the commercial for those as a kid and wondered who the fuck wanted to eat frozen bugs?

>>21530205
You remember them, refused to try them, and continue to pass ignorant judgment upon them 30 years later?

>>21530205
The 90's had a weird fad that snacks for boys had to be gross out themed.

>>21530213
The green slime phase. Gak and Goosebumps, even slime themed attractions theme parks

>>21530213
what's the magical surprise? i'm scared

>>21530135 (OP)
Hershey candy bar factory. My mom would buy me and my sister this when my half sisters were at their mom’s house for visits every other weekend.

>>21530396
Fuck I miss these so much. Grandpa and I would hide these from Grandma because he wasn't supposed to have junk food.

>>21530462
Seemed like a fun idea, but you really could not build much with it iirc.

>>21530477
I've fiended so hard for these, I've bought the prepackaged rice crispy treats and cut them up into small cubes to add to a bowl of milk. It was delicious, but I'm sure will kill you.

>>21530477
One of my earliest memories is eating a bag of them PB Crisps in line at the store while my dad was carrying me
Miss you Dad; I love you

>>21530477
I didn't even know they stopped making these

I can remember when Slim Jim’s were all beef and they were SO much better than today’s mechanically separated chicken version

>>21530135 (OP)
eventually you just throw everything into a bowl and eat that like a kid in a 90s movie

>>21530522
They did, then they brought them back. BUT those fuckers just added rice crispy and some nasty ass regular marshmallows in it.

>>21530135 (OP)
I had totally forgotten about them until seeing this. They were good.

>>21530396
>>21530518

>>21530578
I ain't never head of no shit like that before.
8 different cereals in the line!
what are the add ins!? sprinkles, mini marshmallows? two flavors of jelly beans?
I wish I could see the recipe on the bottom

>>21530568
i was gonna say, bought the lsat pack of these "spicy" slim jims i've never seen (not Tobasco, they're just "spicy")
never had an all beef one though

>>21530135 (OP)
janny remembers.

the Chicken McBites from McD's

Had them "a la carte" for 50c in middle school. Forgot about them for a little while, near the end of high school found them at 7-Eleven and haven't seen them since 2008~
Don't know what was so addicting but you had to eat 3 normal, and the other 3 by twisting them apart and licking the bacon filling like the oreo creme

I can't find a pic of it but there was a Monsters inc ice cream from the mid 2000s that I fucking hated cause it stained my favorite shirt as a kid

>>21530919
I could've sworn i seen these a few years ago...

glass bottle strawberry daquiri sobe. the only one i'd ever tried because it was so good i didn't wanna waste money on something inferior

The menthol drink for kids

>These little fuckers in every checkout lane and begging your mom to let you have a pack

BRING THEM BACK
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>21530989
I think I remember these

>>21530211
i tried them and liked them but i still thought the idea was fucking stupid. i don't know who came up with the novelty of making food taste good but look/sound stupid, but it was a bad idea. why not make food that tastes good and looks/sounds good?

>>21530135 (OP)
backshots?

>>21531022
This wouldn’t be hard to make

>>21530135 (OP)
weren't hot pockets originally round like this?

>>21531022
looks like a hot dog

>>21531022
this looks so fucking good but its basically food cigarettes

>>21530451
why

>>21530135 (OP)
Alien Pops

>>21530741
It says granola and blue-colored rice krispies

>>21530396
Did it taste like nutter butter?

xmnsd

>>21530876
They also had a fish version of these.

>>21530876
>regular size gets the same amount of sauce as the tiny snack size

that's fucking BULLSHIT, mcdonalds. FUCK YOU

>>21533131
No, nutter butters taste like shit compared to them, and I like nutter butters, it was the holy grail of peanut butter snack products, but they took them from us.

IT'S A SNACK ATTACK

They were foul

Man. look at the girl. She's TOTALLY LOVING it...

>>21530213
I had the blender when I was a yung'n. I still remember the birthday party in Mr Gatti's with all my cousins when I got it.
... fuck, man...

That ginger and cinnamon finish was absolute sex. Hasn't been seen in 20 years sadly.

>>21531548
My fucking beloved.... Eating the green/blue/yellow ones in the car on the way to CCD class....

I just remembered this one halloween soda that my Wal-Mart carried one year
The cans were small and glew in the dark
I remember the actual soda being shit though

>>21536741
>glew in the dark
Jesus Christ you fucking stupid ass namefag.

>>21533159
These never looked like the picture and would burst in the toaster.

>>21536749
I thought it was glew not glowed

>>21530196
Got them once as a kid, actually liked them, but the gummy bugs were hard to chew, being frozen and all.

>>21530408

>the fabled pink slurp from your fever dreams
i always imagined it wasnt even real till i saw its just a kids medicine, i thought i was just dreaming about the pink liquid from teletubbies

>>21530135 (OP)
fucking piece of garbage

>>21530473
There was an ad campaign where they asked kids to go to the apple jacks website and vote for which shape you want them to be. I guess the kids voted for blue carrots.

I can't find a picture of Land O Lakes butter cream cookies that were pre-packged. I remember having them back in like 1994 or 1995. I searched for them like 10 years ago and I could find more info on them. They were so good. Does anyone remember them?

Was it a rip off of ren and stimpy? Yeah but ya know what? I liked the canned past so it was alright by me

>>21530135 (OP)
>Food only you remember

>>21536741
I used to steal them from the top shelf of the pantry and they'd be all gone before they even ended up in my lunchbox for school, they were that good. You could eat the whole thing at once or pull the individual strands apart and savor them individually.

>>21536751
I'd burst in her toaster if ya catch my drift.

>>21537108
you pulled soda cans apart? eatman is that you?

>>21536633
You'd probably enjoy the Swedish soda called "Julmust" a lot. It's basically a coke drink with spices. It is fermented but not alcoholic.
It used to be for Christmas or Easter and still mostly is but you can get it all year long.
Order some on Amazon and give it a go.

>>21536633
IIRC it was around for two holiday seasons and never came back, something like 2004 and 2006. Loved this stuff.

Worst cereal ever invented. My mom brought like 9 of these boxes because they were cheap.

>>21531682
I remember these during the mid 90s alien craze. Don't remember them being good or bad THOUGH

>>21537138
How old are you unc?

Just kidding, I'm also old but you're older than me

>>21530135 (OP)

Fuck yes anon! I will absolutely check it out!

>>21537132

2004 and 2005, those were the years. RIP Holiday Spice

Fellow Zoomergods understand

>>21530876
For me, it was popcorn chicken. Not the revised overbreaded popcorn chicken they coasted on, and certainly not the nuggets they have now. But the original tiny popcorn chicken that was still largely meat.

>>21536633
sounds pretty good
like the idea of a spiced up slighter less sugary version of cola
redbull cola was pretty goated

>>21531548
YO

War Heads, the ones before they changed the recipe to be less sour.

>>21531533
It's marketed towards kids. They want it to taste good to kids and be fun/cute to make them like it. If it got discontinued it's because they did a shit job.

>>21537415
I miss these fucking things so much

>>21531548
wow. i totally fucking forgot about these.

>>21537415
>>21538000
this is what i get for not finishing a thread before replying to something. bring back yogos.

>>21530213
I had a Dr. Dreadful food lab when I was a kid and it was awesome, especially the monster skin and monster brains.

>>21530213
that was the boys equivalent to an easy bake oven

>>21531548
i never understood the appeal of these and the other ones where you get a flat slab of cardboard with little cutouts of candy. it was such a rip off. gushers was the best of the fruit snacks, followed by fruit by the foot.

>>21530135 (OP)
packaging and handling here, so bad. All food of dubious origin must leave

>>21538014
Did the goodies really tastes great?

Also were there refill packs (which is always the worst thing about these, once the powder is gone the whole thing is basically ready for the bin)? Did you actually get some?

>>21530469
Your mums a spiteful cunt. I hope you got type 1 diabetes and she is a self-loathing shell of her former self for essentially crippling her own children.

>>21537798
are those the ones with the sour powder in the middle?

>>21537665
those OG popcorn chickens were so good

>>21530135 (OP)
those make you sweat funny

>itt autistic incel man children reminisce about that childhood food item they used to get when their parents wete still together
I'm tickled pink

>>21530196
I miss those.

>>21538030
Nah, the boys equivalent was Creepy Crawlies.

I miss them so much.

>>21531548
dawg its the fruit snack with a twist

>>21530135 (OP)
I've got two of them.

Maybe these were more common in the states but these were/are completely unheard of in scotland, my mum was obsessed with everything being organic so would buy them at a speciality orgnaic shop. Iv only met one other person who knew about these.

>>21537415
Fuck, loved getting these from time to time along with go-gurt.

>>21538817
I hate that I can see their gums.

>>21540795
that really rustles my jimmies

>>21530994
These were awesome. Expensive, but awesome.
>>21538212
I don't think so, they used to sell them at my after school care place and they were popular because they weren't sour/hot like Warheads.
>>21538146
Not really, they just tasted like artificial powder mostly. And they didn't make very much either. Totally not worth it.

>>21530196
>>21530205
I did, Ioved those pops. Chewing on gummy bugs was great.

>>21530135 (OP)
There was this pretzel place in the Monroeville Mall in Pittsburgh. It was called CK's. It was way better than any of the other brands, but I guess it went out of business, because I haven't seen it in years. I've mentioned it a few other times, and it seems like there's always someone else who remembers it.

>>21535276
well shit

>>21531601
Because modern children detest the taste of vegetables and fruit. Only artificially flavored slop is palatable to them.

>>21536756
This made the constant ear infections from growing up in a cigarette smoke filled house worth it.

this stuff was pretty good

I swear to god black pepper jelly exist

>>21530196
I remember the gargoyles version of this

>>21546246
These. I had them from an icecream truck at my grandmas house in denver

>>21530396
I miss them bros. It's been like three decades, when do we get our nostalgic re-release?

I don't know what their distribution is like now a days but I never see Zero bars anymore. I like how everyone had this consensus that it was some diet candy bar and it probably didn't taste good.

The original Monster M80 and Khaos for that matter were absolutely delicious. I have no clue what they did to the new formula for both but they taste overly sugary and not as subtle.

>>21546622
They sell them in Florida all the time at all gas stations

>>21546622
These are still in production.

>>21538087
Holy fuck how did I forget

>>21545830
I love you

>>21538817
that's the one im talking about. such a rip off seeing all that open cardboard area when realistically you're getting like 10 strings of candy.

>>21540599
never seen this one

>>21540602
I recall these

Sour altoids

Does it make me a zoomer if I don't remember seeing these without all the Mars branding? My grandma just bought these one day out of nowhere.

There's a scene in like season 2 of the Sopranos where Carmela is in a grocery store and is standing in front of a giant aisle of Snackwells, seeing that made me wonder why they ever got rid of these bitches.

I got these in so many school lunchboxes. I still remember the slightly odd taste they had, wonder if it was from the foil lined cartons or whatever made them shelf stable.

>>21549773
It makes you a late millennial. Kudos were already off the shelves by the time the earliest zoomers could articulate sentences. Though anyone that'll remember pre mars branded Kudos will remember picrel.

>>21549775
I hear cakesters are similar.

>>21549935
I remember those from the early to mid 90s.
In Krautland we had them in several colors, therefore several flavors. There was a blue one, as well.
They tasted like poison in a can would, but i was a kid in 90s.
iirc, it was nearly impossible to twist and pluck the cap without at least one drop of fluid escaping spilling.

man, i must have put away a pallet's worth of these away when they were 3 or 4 for a dollar on sales

>>21549935
I posted the Kudos (and Snackwells), I definitely remember SqueezIts as the pre-eminent microplastics/hfcs delivery system for my whole youth. There were Kool aid Jammers as well but I think they were later and I never liked them as much at all, flavor wise.

Northeastern Anons, I need your help. If you remember this product and can give it a real name please speak up.
For years upon years I've been trying to find out what this juice unused to drink as a kid was. They always sold it at ShopRite, and it came in a handful of different flavors, all """fruit""". The best one was green, and blue was good too. I kind of recall there being some sort of pulp floating in there? Basically it tasted like Hawaiian Punch, but it was in these big Tampico-esque jugs, and all I remember is the different cartoon dinosaurs on the label, drawn in like, simple picture book style.
I wonder if it was a ShopRite generic brand or something, but it was always just called Dinosaur Juice for me and my family. This was around the turn of the century, I don't think they sold this shit after 2001.

>>21549990
I never liked squeeze-its. Even though my parents complained about them being overpriced, they were too small and gave seven year old me acid reflux. Likewise the barrel hugs my diabetic grandpa would have with his lunch.

Back then, I preferred the Hi-C fruit punch and was addicted to it for a while. A couple years later I'd discover packet Kool-Aid and Flavor-Aid. Way cheaper. Loved the orange flavors and didn't need to use too much sugar.

>>21550012
Hug barrels were gross to me too, and it's weird that I can remember that exact acidic/sugary burn in the back of my throat from a Squeeze it even now. Maybe because they were so small I didn't get too bothered by them.
Hi-C Poppin Punch was all I ever drank at BK as a kid, that shit is so good.

>>21550017
Hell yeah, pairing fast food with fountain Hi-C mogged soda hard back then.

>>21546622
I see them pretty often in New England

>>21548005
love you too anon

>>21546622
I see them at Dollar General.

>>21549987
Why did all these brands go out of their way to create weird sub-brands as if they're some kind of private label scheme?

If they wanted this product not to have the Totino's reputation attached to it, why put the Totino's name on it at all? They could have just made Jeno's a more premium oriented brand or something.

>>21550061
Jeno's was a separate brand before being sold off to Pillsburry just like Totino's. I think they just wanted to retain the same customers before the buyout.

Also, Jeno's pizza rolls predate Totino's.

These things were the saltiest tortilla chips

>>21531035
god I was an absolute FIEND for these as a kid

Anybody remember these?

What happened to these, bruh?

>>21530135 (OP)
bump

>>21548311

These were great but putting them in glass bottles was a mistake

I can't legally tell you because it's illegal to hunt or trap loggerhead sea turtles in Florida and I could be banned for just stating something that is illegal not even if I participated in it.

>>21530135 (OP)
i think i had these, but i def had the stuffed bagel bites variant

Apparently they are back but fuck you niggers, I'm still posting it anyway

>>21536759
Glew is correct, and exists alongside "glowed"

>>21540795
When they came out they were rare here, and you could only get it at Whole Foods(?)

>>21549718
grape was the best flavor

>>21553971
Just like everything, they probably changed the recipe and they suck now.

I'm from New England. In the late 90s there was a potato chip brand that had an extra spicy ripple chip that came in a golden bag and they were in every ghetto convenience store. I can't remember the name or for the life of me find the chip through internet searches. I'm fairly certain it wasn't Utz but I'm not entirely sure. Does anyone have any idea what I'm talmbout?

>>21550040
Thank you

>>21556318
What part of New England? Northern NE and Southern NE have access to more Canadian and Midwestern/Mid-Atlantic brands respectively. Might help narrow it down.

>>21530919
>crackers

you commited cannibalism

>>21554037
Ah right, good to know :)

>>21530135 (OP)
this is crazy, are we getting hot pocket backshots next?

>>21557177
Northern NE

>>21558499
was it a Cape Cod brand? limited run maybe? i feel like it has to be either that or Utz

>>21558514
It was definitely not Cape Cod chips. I did think it might have been Utz but no amount of searching for a spicy ripple Utz in a golden bag from the late 90s has yielded any results. As I recall, it was a shiny metallic golden bag with red writing and the chips were rippled, red, and very spicy. This was around 97 to 2000.

the bell beefer from taco bell.

>>21530477
i would do ANYTHING to have these back

I remember when Chun King used to put a Chinaman on their products. Food was pretty OK

>>21559400
>play frozen dinner lids
You what? They put recordings on whatever the fuck a dinner lid is? That's insane. Was it just some guy going ching chong bing bong choy ho ma la go zhan li?

>>21549773
I didn't even realize that they stopped making these. I haven't thought about them in 12+ years though.

>>21559400
>>21560671
The Chun King TV commercial used to go:
“And Mr. Chinaman say, in his Chinaman way, ‘Chun King is a ding-a-ling a ching-a-chong a chinga-chong-chu’”
