They had pudding pops in the 2000s. My favorite was the vanilla chocolate. They were the best frozen treats ever. I'd kill to get my hands on a few boxes
Born 79. The 80s and 90s were amazing!! I drank Jolt once, and was up for 3 days straight. I was 12. Drinking from the water hose because you were locked outside to play from the time you woke up, to the time the street lights came on. My sister and I had to eat lunch outside on the step. We were only allowed inside to use the bathroom. 80s cereal and Saturday morning cartoons.
The look on your face when they said Bill Cosby is the exact same look most people have now (due to his incarceration). But back then he was known as one of the most wholesome dad figure on television. Coke had the famous illegal substance in it but that hasn't been a thing since 1911, but still an interesting factoid. Love the uploads and reacts! Keep it up!
Actually German researchers in 2006-7 used very sensitive equipment and found coca cola actually still had cocaine in it, although very trace amounts. Turns out coke used it as a "flavoring" and buys waste products from pharmaceutical cocaine, to add as "flavors" it was reported in time magazine and I read the article in 2010. No clue if they changed this after being discovered
I was born in 78 so that whole video and the 80's & 90's was the best time to grow up and so much simplier then. My top favs from that video was. Hot pockets ❤ Pudding pops ❤ Mc DLT ❤ Rib which ❤ It was the greatest time to be alive, music,food,freinds, and ya didnt come home till it was dark.riding bikes,road hockey,playing hide n go seek,man hunt and sleepovers at your freinds houses. There will never be a age like that again. Best ever. Thanks Adam that was nice, cheers Bud!!!!
building big ramps to ride bike off ot, and building tree and underground forts...and then defending them with rock fights...or with "dirt clods." Also, never going to the emergency room unless ya lost a tooth, broke a bone, needed stitching, or couldn't stop the bleeding. XD a great decade to be a young, indeed.
I was born at the very end of 1980 and this video brings me back! Pudding Pops were so good! So were the Hostess Pudding Pies. And I loved Dr. Pepper and Cherry 7 Up bubble gum. I wish they were still available. Giggles! I forgot about those! The 80s were a simpler time and a great decade to grow up. I remember spending summer days riding bikes with friends in my neighborhood, going to each other's houses and coming home when it got dark. All the parents looked out for each other's kids and didn't care to have kids running around their houses and yards. The best decades were the 80s and 90s and I'm so glad I grew up then. It's so funny to see trends from the 80s and 90s coming back now that my kids are teenagers. And my kids like 80s and 90s music (even though they sometimee won't admit it)because that's the only music I listen to. The 80s definitely had the best music.
4:09 so this is what Marty McFly meant in Back to the Future when he told the diner cook from 1955 "Yeah, let me get a tab" and the cook confusingly looked at him and said "Tab? I can't give you a Tab unless you order something..." Makes sense now 😂
Not only did the joke make me laugh in that movie, but the fact that anyone would order a Tab. It's one of the worst things I've had come out of a can.
Oh man! I remember my older sister (9th grade) beat me (4th grade) up, and I picked up a knife and chased her around the house yelling, "Where's the beef". 😂 middle child issued. I'm 44 and she's 50. I still can't live it down. 😂 The 80s ❤😂
@@slabriprock5329 yes I do that's why I am so freaking angry... My grandparents were born in the 20's and I have no desire to participate with the American dream... We are all getting scammed... I grew up rural and we purchased food off of the back of a pickup truck now these damned folks don't even know how to shuck corn I'm sick of it all and I just want to be somewhere that nobody bothers me people are really lost and I can't fix them because they won't stop looking at their phones long enough to listen to anything I say...
Born in 48 thec50s and 60s were great. The 70s and 80s not so much. Just not 64 to 72(Vietnam War) I served a tour in Vietnam. That was enough. Went to Hospital Corps School and Dental Tech A, and C schools in San Diego. A tour on the Ticonderoga, 2years at Mare Island, then a partial tour on the Midway. I don't know why San Diego didn't adopt the Tico, it was their ship in the 60s. Maybe they sold it to the Chinese. But Midway! Midway was a poor excuse for a carrier. It would roll even at port at the dock. But it was built on a battleship hull. Not originally meant to be a carrier. It was my last duty. My BDS was in the secondary con in the forecastle. We could look up the jets exhaust when they were launched.
I grew up in the 80's and this brought back so much wonderful memories! I really miss the Smurf cereal! I miss it so much! The thing I definitely don't miss is the big hair. We had to use so much hairspray.
Yep! Growing up, that was what my mom and grandma gave me to cure nausea. You fill up a cup with ice, pour a little coke syrup into it and then sip it over the next ten minutes, and boom! Nausea gone! ☺️
I feel very fortunate because of when i was born. I was born in 1980. I got to grow up without technology, so I was outside from sun up to sun down. On the other hand, I am young enough to really appreciate all the new technology and get to use it. Pudding pops were amazing. My ciew may be skewed because we were super poor and couldn't afford them, so when i got them, it was a treat. The stuffed cookies were my favorite from this list.
I'm gonna have to share this with my friends from waaaaay back and we can relive our junior high and high school years. We had the best music and there were no cell phones/personal computers/internet. We actually talked to each other in person 😂
Born in '81 and I remember almost all of these things. So many great things gone! Pudding pops were great! Wrinkled fruit, and even any of the really great fruit snacks! I'd have one after school every day. Hot pockets were always good, but there was always part that was still cold and a part that was like fuckin' lava. Needed to let it sit a while. I remember the cereals, I had some of the Nintendo one after begging my parents forever to get some to try it. I also loved the Ecto Coolers that they showed at the beginning, but never talked about in the video. So many great things gone, but not forgotten. Also, YES! You need to get a PO box so we can send you things to try!
I remember all those products in the 80s.I was in high school but I want to see a video of the great things of Ireland you showed our houses.You showed our military, you showed our ood.What is so special about ireland make me want to move there
Pudding pops were my favorite. Jello started making frozen jello pops too but I think they weren’t profitable because it only lasted a few years. I was born in 74 so for the most part I grew up in the 80s
I was born in the 1950s. The mid 1970s to 1990 was a time of peace. And it was very good to be alive. Especially for my children. I was military and was deployed much of the time. But I remember the products of the 1980s.
I was a young adult in the '80s. I remember a lot of these, but mostly the Oreo Big Stuff, because they used the catchy 1971 hit "Mr. Big Stuff" in the commercial.
Turned 14 in '80, so I remember most of these. I don't remember ever trying pudding pops, and I'm probably the only one in the US that's never had a McRib. I'm a Pepsi guy through and through, but I remember Slice and I loved the apple one. Never tried any of the more bazaar cereals, but still love frosted flakes and apple jacks to this day. Being a teen in the 80's was the best ever though. Incredible music, some great movies and just spending the day riding bikes with your friends, and your parents didn't want to see you until the street lights started to come on. Driver's license at 16 and then driving my parent's '72 GMC 4x4 pickup to school, and then play school bus with about 15 people in the back on the way home after school. And yes, I dropped 'em off at their bus stops; they weren't helping with gas money and I wasn't an Uber. ha ha. I love your videos, Adam. Keep 'em commin'! (No, I didn't spell that with a "u") :P
Born in early 70s. 70s and 80s were a great time. So much more simpler times. This brought back a lot of memories. Pudding pies were great. Pepsi for the win!
My mom made "homemade" pudding pops out of plain yogurt and grenadine (a pomegranate syrup). We found some pop molds, so we'd mix the two together, spoon it into the pop, insert the top that had a "stick" in it, freeze. Oh so refreshing on a hot Florida day in the 1980s!
That actually sounds really good. I was a bus boy at Red Lobster in the seventies and we used to go to the bar and get a glass of sprite and put grenadine in it. Good stuff!
I'm so old, in High school in the 70s we had a smoking area. FOR THE STUDENTS! It was outdoors and you had to have your parent's approval. That seems so insane now. And I'm so glad I never smoked.
We had a smoking section too, same thing, you had to get written permission from your parents. Looking back now I'm really surprised they still allowed it since it was the early 90s
McDLTs were the bomb. Closest thing a fast food chain could get to home-made hamburgers. The veggies were cool & crisp and tasted better for it. The burger patties were hot and tasted better than almost anywhere else. The two halves being separated didn't slow you down at all--especially if you're someone who adds mustard, salt & pepper, and ketchup to your burgers. --Dan
Dude. Tato Skins were amazing. Those TGIF potato skin chips that are around today are just NOT the same. The original were legit made mostly of the skins of the potato.
I, as well grew up in the 80's. It was the age of decadence.. and I loved pudding pops. As well as Boopers... So good. As well as jolly rancher sticks. My favorites were cinnamon, watermelon, apple. Hostess had a coffee cake that had a really thick cinnamon strudel that you could take off. I would eat that first. Hensens would make an apple soda that was great. Cherry 7-up was awesome. Now it tastes weird. And Mars bar yummy. As well as Mother's cookies that were called Flaky Flicks yummy...
Awesome Teenage Years It was an Incredible time to grow up in.. Movies, Music, Fashion, Arcade games, Drive-in's, TV Shows First Home Computers and Video Game consoles: I had a TI99-4A and a Commodore 64
I love the gum carton point. Even today at Christmas I get a carton of gum cuz it's a family classic. We call it "the minute gum" because it looses all satisfaction until you toss another 2 into your Gob a minute later. Usually lasts til 1/2/XX or 1/5/XX if your big on chips and salsa.
One item they missed was Morton Frozen Donuts. Oh my heavens. They were "sugar raised" with a "red" (cherry? strawberry? raspberry? something red) jam interior. Yes, you had to cook them in the oven (reheat, in truth) for 30 minutes, but worth the wait. I read they went out of business in the early 2000s. But what would I do for a box of Mortons donuts....mmmmm.
4:14 Yes. When it was launched, not in the 1980s 😂. When launched, Coca-Cola's two key ingredients were cocaine and caffeine. The cocaine was derived from the coca leaf and the caffeine from kola nut (also spelled "cola nut" at the time), leading to the name Coca-Cola. Pemberton called for five ounces of coca leaf per gallon of syrup (approximately 37 g/L), a significant dose; in 1891, Candler claimed his formula (altered extensively from Pemberton's original) contained only a tenth of this amount. Coca-Cola once contained an estimated nine milligrams of cocaine per glass. (For comparison, a typical dose or "line" of cocaine is 50-75 mg.) In 1903, it was removed. After 1904, instead of using fresh leaves, Coca-Cola started using "spent" leaves - the leftovers of the cocaine-extraction process with trace levels of cocaine. Since then (by 1929), Coca-Cola has used a cocaine-free coca leaf extract.
So many of these take me back to my childhood in the 80s and 90s. Many of these were so good. I'll have to go through this again later and comment on each when i have the time. I
Pudding pops were amazing. The reason that Jello could not make a profit off of them is because every house in the USA at that time had popsicle molds where you could make them yourself for pennies! They were creamy and less solid than regular pop sicles which made them easy to take a bite out of!
Absolutely the best decade! I was a teen then so of course I'm biased, lol. JELLO pudding pops were AMAZING! I think they stopped making money I think because frozen yogurt sort of exploded right there in the 90s. No Coke Zero and Diet Coke are not the same. Coke Zero has less caffeine, uses two different artificial sweeteners and a different flavor profile. The "soda" bubble gums were kinda nasty. The Dr. Pepper one was the only one that had a flavor that didn't die out after 30 sec. The pudding pies were exactly like you think...too much filling. Hot Pockets are the shit. My favorite is the classic pepperoni with the garlicy crust. The Nerds are still out there selling.
I was born in '84 and I remember as a kid in school in the 90s, we had doritos sold in a vending machine. I loved Cool Range Doritos, but noticed one day that they said "Cooler Range Doritos." They doubled the seasoning on the chips and it was delicious. It stayed that way for a while before I noticed they went back to Cool Ranch Doritos. They went back to the old name, but kept the amount of seasoning they used for the Cooler Ranch Doritos.
Graduated from my Texas high school in 1983... I vividly remember many of these creations. Nowadays their sugar content would probably put me into a diabetic coma. Even remember walking a few blocks to the "dime store" as a kid in the 70's to buy "Pixie Sticks" (nothing but colored sugar) and "Pop Rocks", a tiny candy that literally exploded when you put them in your mouth...
Is there a way you can set up a post box that isn't your home address, like at the post office or somethin and that way people can send you stuff if they want to? Just an idea
Coca-Cola did have cocaine in it but that was back in the late 1800's to the early 1900's. I think it ended shortly before 1905. It was marketed as "The Cola with a kick".
The Bar None bar was actually re-christened the "Thingamajig" and later the "Whozeewhatzit" to match the Whatchamacallit; a similar, yet more popular Hershey product.
Born in '76 and I remember the 80s well. I was a huge fan of Jello Pudding Pops. Peanut Butter Boppers were awesome and I think they made me fall in love with peanut butter. I didn't care for the McDLT and the Ribwich, I was all about the Chicken McNuggets. If I could go back in time, I'd spend a week in 1985, living in an arcade with pocketfuls of quarters and eating all the food I remember.
Back in the day, way back, Coca-Cola did have coca leaf extract, as a flavor as well as a stimulant, to work with the caffeine from other flavors. Back then the Coca-Cola syrup was sold separately from soda water, mixed in the pharmacy, in the early days of soda fountain bars. They used to sell pediatric cough syrups with heroine, too.
I loved Pudding Pops! I was born in 1970 and I can honestly say that I have never heard of Boppers, Magic Middles, Hubba Bubba Bubble Gum pop, Fruit Wrinkles, Bacon flavored Cheetos, Swiss Cheese Crackers, Tribbles, Banana Frosted Flakes, Giggles OJ's cereal. Yes, there was cocaine in Coca Cola at one time years ago. I still get the McRib at least once every time it comes back (without the nasty pickles though). That along with McNuggets, Big Mac and OCCASIONALLY the Filet-O-Fish and their fries are all my go to orders. I still get Hot Pockets occasionally, especially if I can find the bbq ones. Cool Ranch Doritos are the nastiest tasting stuff around!
Kid of the 80’s here and dude there was so much good stuff in there! From bonkers to tato skins and the California raisins! FYI nerds are still very much a thing and you should try a nerds rope. Now last but not least the pudding pops. An absolute can’t miss! Those things were so good
I miss the gian oreos so bad. Used to buy them in single packs at gas stations. Used to drink Tab exclusively,switched to Diet Coke when it came out,still on it. Diet Cherry Seven up and Southern Comfort were my cocktail of choice for getting wasted for a while back then. ("Southern Comfort is an American, naturally fruit-flavored, whiskey liqueur with fruit and spice accents. The brand was created by bartender Martin Wilkes Heron in New Orleans in 1874, using whiskey as the base spirit. Whiskey was replaced by a neutral spirit under the ownership of Brown-Forman.")
I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s and I loved Pudding Pops, they were so smooth, creamy and chocolatey!!! I loved loved loved Apple Slice soda pop. There was regular Slice Soda and Apple Slice but I loved the Apple Slice. You could not buy either of them here in Illinois, it was not sold here and was illegal like Coors Beer and fireworks. We would have to go across the state line into Missouri to buy Apple Slice soda pop. We would buy a trunk full of it at a time and haul it home to Illinois. I still love the McRib, they only have them one summer every few years anymore but every time they have them I get them a lot! They’re so good! Also I grew up on RC Cola so that’s my cola of choice. My second choice between Pepsi and Coke would be Pepsi, Coke is too acid tasting. Im drinking a Cherry RC Cola right now but I wish I had some Apple Slice. Haven’t tasted Apple Slice since High School in the late 80’s. Growing up in the mid 70’s to late 80’s was the best of times in my opinion. Great time to be a kid, we had so much fun with friends riding our bikes and making ramps out in the yard to jump our bikes like Evel Knievel. Playing Kick the Can, Hide and Seek and making up our own games, walking a block up the street to the little meat market to get gum for a penny and cold RC Colas in glass bottles and some lunch meat like pickle loaf, bologna or hard salami that we would roll up and eat. Sleepovers at our friends houses, ice cream socials and church picnics! Catching lightning bugs at night. Swimming at the public pool all summer. Going up to McGuffins to play the arcade games or pool when we were teenagers, cruising town and the cars were bumper to bumper all night. Going to the SkyView Drive-In on Thursday nights because it was carload night for $3, as many people as you could get in your car for $3, it was so much fun! Roller skating in the summer and winter, they would open all the doors in the summer to let the breeze flow in and waiting for the announcer to say “Couple Skate” and hoping the boy you liked asked you to skate. Bowling in the winter months a lot sometimes in the summer too. Playing music on the jukebox at the bowling alley was always a treat. You got 5 songs for a quarter. Sunday dinners after church at our grandparents house and the whole family from various towns would come home for Sunday Dinner and my uncles would bring their guitars and play and my dad would sing, such wonderful times together as a family with my dads side of family. So many more things I can’t list them all. Great childhood and teenage years. Kids today don’t know what they’re missing out on.
So many memories! I had completely forgotten about Giggles cookies. I remember loving them! I also loved the orange chewing gum in the containers. I even remember orange flavored Triaminic, it was my go to flavor of medicine in the 80s. I haven’t seen orange flavored medicines for kids in ages. It’s either berry, grape or bubblegum flavor. Now I want to eat some orange candy or make some orange koolaid! 😂
Born in 1975, I grew up in the 1980’s! TAB was my FAVORITE diet Soda EVER!!!!! I cried tears of joy when they brought it back and tears of sadness when they canceled it almost 2 years ago.
Out of high school in 1982, I remember all these snack foods. I remember the cola wars and when Coke came out with "new" coke. Hated that! Some will argue that that was the biggest corporate mistake while others will say it was the best marketing ploy ever. Video introducing Jello pudding pops. Adam's response - "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know..... NA NA NA NA NA NA". 🤣🤣🤣 Those pudding pops were pretty good Adam. This sure did bring back memories. Thanks Adam!
Tato Skins were great. They were my favorite snack in the 80's and 90's. I still miss them. Yeah the TGIF chips are similar but not quite the same. Never had Jello Pudding pops in the 80's when I was a kid but I loved the ads for them. Magic Middles were very good as well. By the way some of the old sodas were referenced in the Back to the Future movies. I know Tab was at least and I think Pepsi Perfect.
I was born in 1971, so was a teenager through most of the 80s. Pudding Pops were amazing!. New Coke was not liked by almost everyone, it was too sweet. In the video, he said Coke executives decided to bring the original version back but did not say it was because Americans hated the new one so much and wrote millions of letters to bring the old Coke back. They said that they did, but actually, that was a half-truth. The formula was the same, but they changed from using real sugar to corn syrup to sweeten the drink. There was a long enough period between the New Coke and the Original version that people did not notice the different tastes between the sweeteners.
PUDDING POPS ROCKED!!! So did the OREO BIG STUFF and the MCRIB!!! I wish they'd bring 'em ALL BACK!! :) Glad we still have COOL RANCH DORITOS and Cinnamon Toast Crunch!! :) SO MANY of these were FADS...but, some were REALLY GOOD! Oh - and, I wish they'd bring TAB cola back, TOO! I enjoyed it! SLICE WAS pretty-much like Sprite, but a lil' fruitier... (not much)....THANKS for the REACTIONS! :) I was almost 20 yrs old when a lot of these came out! ENJOY your CHANNEL! :)
The Jello puddin pops and the pudding filled pie/cakes were awesome. Sometimes the best things are discontinued out of spite. If they taste good or work too well they make up reasons to stop making those things. That's what happened to both of those.
Born in 68...I loved the pudding pops. There was coke had coke in it when they first started out .lol. the pudding pies were delicious..vanilla was ma fave..loves orange slice

We were only allowed inside to use the bathroom. 80s cereal and Saturday morning cartoons.

I'm going to have to try that. 😋
80's was my teenage years. The freedom and everything that goes with it was amazing.
The original recipe for Coca Cola did have cocaine in it. It was used as a medicine and served in a pharmacy…. You could also get coke syrup
Yep! Growing up, that was what my mom and grandma gave me to cure nausea. You fill up a cup with ice, pour a little coke syrup into it and then sip it over the next ten minutes, and boom! Nausea gone! ☺️
People also had a better sense of community back then. I was a teenager in the 80s and it was great.

Yep! Mine too!
I'm gonna have to share this with my friends from waaaaay back and we can relive our junior high and high school years. We had the best music and there were no cell phones/personal computers/internet. We actually talked to each other in person 😂
I grew up in the 70’s! I was so lucky!!!
The ’70s was the best decade ever!
80s kid here we had a blast back then I have many scars from them times hahahaha
Hahaha I’ll not ask why!
physical and emotional...we're built different now, because of our misspent days of youth. ;)
Same, bicycle
Born in '81 and I remember almost all of these things. So many great things gone! Pudding pops were great! Wrinkled fruit, and even any of the really great fruit snacks! I'd have one after school every day. Hot pockets were always good, but there was always part that was still cold and a part that was like fuckin' lava. Needed to let it sit a while. I remember the cereals, I had some of the Nintendo one after begging my parents forever to get some to try it. I also loved the Ecto Coolers that they showed at the beginning, but never talked about in the video. So many great things gone, but not forgotten.
Also, YES! You need to get a PO box so we can send you things to try!
I remember all those products in the 80s.I was in high school but I want to see a video of the great things of Ireland you showed our houses.You showed our military, you showed our ood.What is so special about ireland make me want to move there
I am Gen X so I was alive in the 80's and I loved it.
Born in 1982...I had all of the California Raisins figures, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch is still my favorite cereal.
Oh man I forgot about the liquid filled soda gum, those were awesome
Pudding pops were my favorite. Jello started making frozen jello pops too but I think they weren’t profitable because it only lasted a few years. I was born in 74 so for the most part I grew up in the 80s
The Ghostbusters Hi-C Ecto Cooler should've been on this list. One of the best drinks ever. It came out in 1989.
I was born in the 1950s. The mid 1970s to 1990 was a time of peace. And it was very good to be alive. Especially for my children. I was military and was deployed much of the time. But I remember the products of the 1980s.
I was a young adult in the '80s. I remember a lot of these, but mostly the Oreo Big Stuff, because they used the catchy 1971 hit "Mr. Big Stuff" in the commercial.
Turned 14 in '80, so I remember most of these. I don't remember ever trying pudding pops, and I'm probably the only one in the US that's never had a McRib. I'm a Pepsi guy through and through, but I remember Slice and I loved the apple one. Never tried any of the more bazaar cereals, but still love frosted flakes and apple jacks to this day. Being a teen in the 80's was the best ever though. Incredible music, some great movies and just spending the day riding bikes with your friends, and your parents didn't want to see you until the street lights started to come on. Driver's license at 16 and then driving my parent's '72 GMC 4x4 pickup to school, and then play school bus with about 15 people in the back on the way home after school. And yes, I dropped 'em off at their bus stops; they weren't helping with gas money and I wasn't an Uber. ha ha. I love your videos, Adam. Keep 'em commin'! (No, I didn't spell that with a "u") :P
Born in early 70s. 70s and 80s were a great time. So much more simpler times. This brought back a lot of memories. Pudding pies were great. Pepsi for the win!
My mom made "homemade" pudding pops out of plain yogurt and grenadine (a pomegranate syrup). We found some pop molds, so we'd mix the two together, spoon it into the pop, insert the top that had a "stick" in it, freeze. Oh so refreshing on a hot Florida day in the 1980s!
That actually sounds really good. I was a bus boy at Red Lobster in the seventies and we used to go to the bar and get a glass of sprite and put grenadine in it. Good stuff!
@@slabriprock5329 Isn't that called a Shirley Temple? After the actress?
I'm so old, in High school in the 70s we had a smoking area. FOR THE STUDENTS! It was outdoors and you had to have your parent's approval. That seems so insane now. And I'm so glad I never smoked.
We had a smoking section too, same thing, you had to get written permission from your parents. Looking back now I'm really surprised they still allowed it since it was the early 90s
McDLTs were the bomb. Closest thing a fast food chain could get to home-made hamburgers. The veggies were cool & crisp and tasted better for it. The burger patties were hot and tasted better than almost anywhere else. The two halves being separated didn't slow you down at all--especially if you're someone who adds mustard, salt & pepper, and ketchup to your burgers. --Dan
Pudding Pops were awesome . . They stopped making them because the process was expensive, so their profits were low.
Dude. Tato Skins were amazing. Those TGIF potato skin chips that are around today are just NOT the same. The original were legit made mostly of the skins of the potato.
Dude, I'll be 55 on May 30th and I can tell you that being a teenager in the 80's was amazing lol
I, as well grew up in the 80's. It was the age of decadence.. and I loved pudding pops. As well as Boopers... So good. As well as jolly rancher sticks. My favorites were cinnamon, watermelon, apple. Hostess had a coffee cake that had a really thick cinnamon strudel that you could take off. I would eat that first. Hensens would make an apple soda that was great. Cherry 7-up was awesome. Now it tastes weird. And Mars bar yummy. As well as Mother's cookies that were called Flaky Flicks yummy...
I remember having the gum that was in the little juice boxes, those were fun.
Awesome Teenage Years
It was an Incredible time to grow up in..
Movies, Music, Fashion, Arcade games,
Drive-in's, TV Shows
First Home Computers and
Video Game consoles:
I had a TI99-4A and a Commodore 64
Unreal time!
roller skating rinks and hanging out like rats at the mall arcade. good times indeed
Pudding Pops are AWESOME!!! They just tasted like a 'fudgsicle' or very smooth frozen chocolate ice cream on a stick!
The 80's in America... was an AMAZING time to live!!!!! :)
I love the gum carton point. Even today at Christmas I get a carton of gum cuz it's a family classic. We call it "the minute gum" because it looses all satisfaction until you toss another 2 into your Gob a minute later. Usually lasts til 1/2/XX or 1/5/XX if your big on chips and salsa.
Those jello pudding pops were so good. Haha
One item they missed was Morton Frozen Donuts. Oh my heavens. They were "sugar raised" with a "red" (cherry? strawberry? raspberry? something red) jam interior. Yes, you had to cook them in the oven (reheat, in truth) for 30 minutes, but worth the wait. I read they went out of business in the early 2000s. But what would I do for a box of Mortons donuts....mmmmm.
4:14 Yes. When it was launched, not in the 1980s 😂. When launched, Coca-Cola's two key ingredients were cocaine and caffeine. The cocaine was derived from the coca leaf and the caffeine from kola nut (also spelled "cola nut" at the time), leading to the name Coca-Cola.
Pemberton called for five ounces of coca leaf per gallon of syrup (approximately 37 g/L), a significant dose; in 1891, Candler claimed his formula (altered extensively from Pemberton's original) contained only a tenth of this amount. Coca-Cola once contained an estimated nine milligrams of cocaine per glass. (For comparison, a typical dose or "line" of cocaine is 50-75 mg.) In 1903, it was removed.
After 1904, instead of using fresh leaves, Coca-Cola started using "spent" leaves - the leftovers of the cocaine-extraction process with trace levels of cocaine. Since then (by 1929), Coca-Cola has used a cocaine-free coca leaf extract.
Pudding pops were great! I love the pudding pies, too.
So many of these take me back to my childhood in the 80s and 90s. Many of these were so good. I'll have to go through this again later and comment on each when i have the time. I
I was in my 20’s during the 80’s. What a good time
Love it!
Same here!
Re-living the 80's all over again..thanks 😂😂😂😂
Diner food is the best!!There was a throw back 50's style one when I was in highschool they must have HATED us 🤣👍
Pudding pops were amazing. The reason that Jello could not make a profit off of them is because every house in the USA at that time had popsicle molds where you could make them yourself for pennies! They were creamy and less solid than regular pop
sicles which made them easy to take a bite out of!
Absolutely the best decade! I was a teen then so of course I'm biased, lol. JELLO pudding pops were AMAZING! I think they stopped making money I think because frozen yogurt sort of exploded right there in the 90s.
No Coke Zero and Diet Coke are not the same. Coke Zero has less caffeine, uses two different artificial sweeteners and a different flavor profile.
The "soda" bubble gums were kinda nasty. The Dr. Pepper one was the only one that had a flavor that didn't die out after 30 sec.
The pudding pies were exactly like you think...too much filling.
Hot Pockets are the shit. My favorite is the classic pepperoni with the garlicy crust.
The Nerds are still out there selling.
Man, what I'd give to enjoy Bonkers again. I can remember the taste of them even now, 30 some years later.
I was born in '84 and I remember as a kid in school in the 90s, we had doritos sold in a vending machine. I loved Cool Range Doritos, but noticed one day that they said "Cooler Range Doritos." They doubled the seasoning on the chips and it was delicious. It stayed that way for a while before I noticed they went back to Cool Ranch Doritos. They went back to the old name, but kept the amount of seasoning they used for the Cooler Ranch Doritos.
Graduated from my Texas high school in 1983...
I vividly remember many of these creations. Nowadays their sugar content would probably put me into a diabetic coma.
Even remember walking a few blocks to the "dime store" as a kid in the 70's to buy "Pixie Sticks" (nothing but colored sugar) and "Pop Rocks", a tiny candy that literally exploded when you put them in your mouth...
The 80's was my mid teen to mid 20s. What a awesome time it was to be alive...cars, music, skating rinks, parties everywhere.
The Mc DLT was so awesome. You wouldn’t think it would make a difference but it really did.
Oh Adam you do not know what you are missing, Jell-O pudding pops were the best ever, so damn good!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wanna try some now!
Is there a way you can set up a post box that isn't your home address, like at the post office or somethin and that way people can send you stuff if they want to? Just an idea
Coca-Cola did have cocaine in it but that was back in the late 1800's to the early 1900's. I think it ended shortly before 1905. It was marketed as "The Cola with a kick".
The Bar None bar was actually re-christened the "Thingamajig" and later the "Whozeewhatzit" to match the Whatchamacallit; a similar, yet more popular Hershey product.
Pudding Pops were Amazing !!!! The chocolate swirl mmmmmmmmm
Pudding Pops were awesome! The vanilla was my favorite.
Born in '76 and I remember the 80s well. I was a huge fan of Jello Pudding Pops. Peanut Butter Boppers were awesome and I think they made me fall in love with peanut butter. I didn't care for the McDLT and the Ribwich, I was all about the Chicken McNuggets. If I could go back in time, I'd spend a week in 1985, living in an arcade with pocketfuls of quarters and eating all the food I remember.
Back in the day, way back, Coca-Cola did have coca leaf extract, as a flavor as well as a stimulant, to work with the caffeine from other flavors. Back then the Coca-Cola syrup was sold separately from soda water, mixed in the pharmacy, in the early days of soda fountain bars. They used to sell pediatric cough syrups with heroine, too.
Yes, there was cocaine in Coca-Cola - in 1908! I think they were forced to remove the addictive ingredients by laws passed in the 1910's.
I loved Pudding Pops! I was born in 1970 and I can honestly say that I have never heard of Boppers, Magic Middles, Hubba Bubba Bubble Gum pop, Fruit Wrinkles, Bacon flavored Cheetos, Swiss Cheese Crackers, Tribbles, Banana Frosted Flakes, Giggles OJ's cereal. Yes, there was cocaine in Coca Cola at one time years ago. I still get the McRib at least once every time it comes back (without the nasty pickles though). That along with McNuggets, Big Mac and OCCASIONALLY the Filet-O-Fish and their fries are all my go to orders. I still get Hot Pockets occasionally, especially if I can find the bbq ones. Cool Ranch Doritos are the nastiest tasting stuff around!
Kid of the 80’s here and dude there was so much good stuff in there! From bonkers to tato skins and the California raisins! FYI nerds are still very much a thing and you should try a nerds rope. Now last but not least the pudding pops. An absolute can’t miss! Those things were so good
Pudding pops are outstanding!
Yes that’s why it’s called Coca-Cola coca was one of the main ingredients but that was in the early 1900
Diet Coke had 30 calories a serving they made coke 0 to compete with Diet Pepsi which had 0 calories. I once worked for coke
I miss the gian oreos so bad. Used to buy them in single packs at gas stations. Used to drink Tab exclusively,switched to Diet Coke when it came out,still on it. Diet Cherry Seven up and Southern Comfort were my cocktail of choice for getting wasted for a while back then. ("Southern Comfort is an American, naturally fruit-flavored, whiskey liqueur with fruit and spice accents. The brand was created by bartender Martin Wilkes Heron in New Orleans in 1874, using whiskey as the base spirit. Whiskey was replaced by a neutral spirit under the ownership of Brown-Forman.")
I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s and I loved Pudding Pops, they were so smooth, creamy and chocolatey!!!
I loved loved loved Apple Slice soda pop. There was regular Slice Soda and Apple Slice but I loved the Apple Slice. You could not buy either of them here in Illinois, it was not sold here and was illegal like Coors Beer and fireworks. We would have to go across the state line into Missouri to buy Apple Slice soda pop. We would buy a trunk full of it at a time and haul it home to Illinois.
I still love the McRib, they only have them one summer every few years anymore but every time they have them I get them a lot! They’re so good!
Also I grew up on RC Cola so that’s my cola of choice. My second choice between Pepsi and Coke would be Pepsi, Coke is too acid tasting. Im drinking a Cherry RC Cola right now but I wish I had some Apple Slice. Haven’t tasted Apple Slice since High School in the late 80’s.
Growing up in the mid 70’s to late 80’s was the best of times in my opinion. Great time to be a kid, we had so much fun with friends riding our bikes and making ramps out in the yard to jump our bikes like Evel Knievel. Playing Kick the Can, Hide and Seek and making up our own games, walking a block up the street to the little meat market to get gum for a penny and cold RC Colas in glass bottles and some lunch meat like pickle loaf, bologna or hard salami that we would roll up and eat. Sleepovers at our friends houses, ice cream socials and church picnics! Catching lightning bugs at night. Swimming at the public pool all summer. Going up to McGuffins to play the arcade games or pool when we were teenagers, cruising town and the cars were bumper to bumper all night. Going to the SkyView Drive-In on Thursday nights because it was carload night for $3, as many people as you could get in your car for $3, it was so much fun! Roller skating in the summer and winter, they would open all the doors in the summer to let the breeze flow in and waiting for the announcer to say “Couple Skate” and hoping the boy you liked asked you to skate. Bowling in the winter months a lot sometimes in the summer too. Playing music on the jukebox at the bowling alley was always a treat. You got 5 songs for a quarter. Sunday dinners after church at our grandparents house and the whole family from various towns would come home for Sunday Dinner and my uncles would bring their guitars and play and my dad would sing, such wonderful times together as a family with my dads side of family. So many more things I can’t list them all. Great childhood and teenage years. Kids today don’t know what they’re missing out on.
I loved the pudding pops!! I'm so upset they were discontinued 😢. I grew up in the 80s and had most of these items as a kid. This was truly nostalgic.
There is a reason Gen X was the best generation to grow up in. ❤
So many memories! I had completely forgotten about Giggles cookies. I remember loving them! I also loved the orange chewing gum in the containers. I even remember orange flavored Triaminic, it was my go to flavor of medicine in the 80s. I haven’t seen orange flavored medicines for kids in ages. It’s either berry, grape or bubblegum flavor. Now I want to eat some orange candy or make some orange koolaid! 😂
Born in 1975, I grew up in the 1980’s! TAB was my FAVORITE diet Soda EVER!!!!! I cried tears of joy when they brought it back and tears of sadness when they canceled it almost 2 years ago.
I was born in 1952, but I also loved TAB and really miss it!
80's music!!! Snacks, soda with actual sugar...
Brings me back. I remember a lot of these foods. The gum cartons were addictive
OMG I remembered every single one of those things!!! Pudding Pops were always my favorite!!! ❤❤❤
Out of high school in 1982, I remember all these snack foods. I remember the cola wars and when Coke came out with "new" coke. Hated that! Some will argue that that was the biggest corporate mistake while others will say it was the best marketing ploy ever. Video introducing Jello pudding pops. Adam's response - "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know..... NA NA NA NA NA NA". 🤣🤣🤣 Those pudding pops were pretty good Adam. This sure did bring back memories. Thanks Adam!
Tato Skins were great. They were my favorite snack in the 80's and 90's.
I still miss them. Yeah the TGIF chips are similar but not quite the same.
Never had Jello Pudding pops in the 80's when I was a kid but I loved the ads
for them. Magic Middles were very good as well.
By the way some of the old sodas were referenced in the Back to the Future
movies. I know Tab was at least and I think Pepsi Perfect.
I grew up in the 80s, woohoo
Love it!
Same. It was the best of times.
Me too. Greatest decade ever. Best music ever created
@@artemis009 yeah the 80s was great
@@ChrisHaar amen
lol I will always remember Jason Alexander (George Costanza) in the McDLT commercial singing.
OMG OMG OMG OMG! Ive been trying to remember one of my favorite childhood treats! PEANUT BUTTER BOPPERS! FINALLY! Thank god for this video!
Pudding Pops, a creamier chocolate ice cream bar, yummy and Micky D's McRib, scrumptious!
Jell-o Pudding Pops where the absolute best, I remember when you could get them at Burger King. And Adam it wasn't just pudding that was frozen lol
13:05 OH MY GOD!!!! I remember these!!!! I'd completely forgot about them!!!
I was born in 1971, so was a teenager through most of the 80s. Pudding Pops were amazing!. New Coke was not liked by almost everyone, it was too sweet. In the video, he said Coke executives decided to bring the original version back but did not say it was because Americans hated the new one so much and wrote millions of letters to bring the old Coke back. They said that they did, but actually, that was a half-truth. The formula was the same, but they changed from using real sugar to corn syrup to sweeten the drink. There was a long enough period between the New Coke and the Original version that people did not notice the different tastes between the sweeteners.
PUDDING POPS ROCKED!!! So did the OREO BIG STUFF and the MCRIB!!! I wish they'd bring 'em ALL BACK!! :) Glad we still have COOL RANCH DORITOS and Cinnamon Toast Crunch!! :) SO MANY of these were FADS...but, some were REALLY GOOD! Oh - and, I wish they'd bring TAB cola back, TOO! I enjoyed it! SLICE WAS pretty-much like Sprite, but a lil' fruitier... (not much)....THANKS for the REACTIONS! :) I was almost 20 yrs old when a lot of these came out! ENJOY your CHANNEL! :)
Re Coke: In 1903, cocaine was removed, leaving caffeine as the sole stimulant ingredient, and all medicinal claims were dropped.
The Jello puddin pops and the pudding filled pie/cakes were awesome. Sometimes the best things are discontinued out of spite. If they taste good or work too well they make up reasons to stop making those things. That's what happened to both of those.
Jello pudding pops were my favorite. Excellent
Born in 68...I loved the pudding pops. There was coke had coke in it when they first started out .lol. the pudding pies were delicious..vanilla was ma fave..loves orange slice
The Popsicle Pudding Pops were amazing. So creamy and smooth. I wish they'd bring them back.
Smurf Berry Crunch was my favorite cereal when I was a kid! I can smell it now.
