      I was born in 74 so I grew up in the 80’s and I miss those times. My childhood wasn’t very good and that’s putting it lightly. I tried to forget the 80’s and 70’s for many many years. After years of therapy I can now look back at the good times I did have and enjoy the memories. The best times for me were from 84 to 91. Those were the years that shaped my life. I figured out which genre of music really spoke to me. While I can look back and see there were good times I don’t think I would go through it or live in that era forever. I do miss my friends and loved ones that are no longer here. I’ve lost so many loved ones it seems surreal.

      A lot of people say that it is just an illusion that our brains are making it seem that way, however, all one has to do is take a closer look. Things were for sure less serious, less dramatic. The shows tackled heavy topics, but in a light-hearted way. I watched Family Ties all day this past Saturday and I was entertained. I didn't need to see a cop show that dealt with a child tranny rapping a student. Our media, our entertainment did this too us. If we rejected it as a culture we would have been better off.
      It doesn't do much to protect us from the violent people who are getting their kicks watching others be hurt on a "viral" video. The good news is that we have access to shows and movies from yesteryear, and surround our personal lives (literally behind closed doors), that we can feed our minds good stuff.

    My kids were born in '84 and '89. I remember grocery shopping and letting them pick out their own box of cereal and one snack. They'd carry their cereal box around until we came to the snack isle. Then the boxes were dropped, thrown in the cart, or given to me to hold while they made very important decisions. When they were older they worked out deals to share with each other.

      @@RhettyforHistory I can't find the information when they were discontinued, but they launched in 1987. The chopsticks were silly and wasteful to include. They were only available as 9 or 20 nuggets which means spending more $. The hot, spicy mustard may have been too spicy for the average consumer, but I didn't care for how it tasted. The red sweet and sour sauce was that syrupy kind at lower-end Chinese take-out places. Shanghai didn't beat out the traditional sauces so that could be the reason for its discontinuation. McDonald's BBQ sauce is strange, so they need a bold, smoky sauce like Burger King or Chick-Fil-A. If an item doesn't sell enough units, they pull it.

    Wow ! This brought back so many happy food memories. Jell-o pudding pops, Giggles cookies, Bonkers candy, Tato Skins, Slice were all huge parts of my childhood. Also those little juice carton gums which really made me smile. I adored those ! Also remember Hostess Pudding Pies boy were they good. I believe Tastykake still makes pudding pies today. Another '80s treat I would add to this list is Good Humour's Fat Frog a frog-shaped ice cream bar with rich vanilla ice cream tinted green and candy eyes. They were a favourite ice cream truck treat. I miss them.

My husband and I are always talking about how cool it was to live in the 80's. The arcades, roller skating, waiting for new music to hit the shelves of Sam Goody or Camelot's, staying up all night playing Nintendo (while eating/drinking a lot of these sugary snacks!), Headbangers Ball, McDonald's characters (my brother was terrified of Grimace haha), prizes in cereal...

    In the later '80s as a teen I remember loving Hydrox cookies. They were like Oreo's, but for some reason, I thought Hydrox tasted much better. I'd crumble them up in a glass of milk and eat them with a spoon. There was also this fast-food chain in California called Skipper's. They primarily served fish, but also had the best chicken strips! In the '80s I remember the "newness" of using a microwave for things like frozen burritos. I also remember salad bars being popular in the late '80s (the Sizzler in California).
