My sister nearly killed me throwing a full can of that stuff at my head when I was 8. Still have a scar, and instead of apologizing when it comes up, she calls it my 'Not Quik Enough stamp'.
I worked at Borders Books Cafe a couple years before they closed. A big deal was that they used Ghirardelli chocolate in the mochas. But when I started I saw a jar of Nesquik powder behind the counter. When I asked what it was for they said "oh that's for when we run out of the Ghirardelli, nobody notices any difference". LOL
Almost as good as Whitman’s chocolates when they started making delicious 3 ounce ALL natural chocolate bars. I asked the chocolate room supervisor how the hell can they empty out 500' of 2" chocolate pipe when they changed over from regular milk.or dark chocolate to all natural. Told me they don't so the four types of all natural chocolate bars all had some regular chocolate in them. First six months when they first started selling them back in the 1980's they were only 50¢ each. They could not make enough of them until they raised vibe price to 79¢. the large chocolate room had separate tanks for all natural & regular chocolate but it got pumped 500' to a single chocolate tank and a dark chocolate tank.
Portuguese Nesquick consumer here! Damn, that can from the 80's really brought back memories! Nesquick is in the DNA of every Portuguese - over here we get almost every product you mentioned. Hell, I even have the Dulco Gusto caps at home :) One hint why nesquick cereals sell more than Cocoa Puffs - The brand - Nesquick is way bigger than Cocoa Puffs (and I mean, way bigger). It's a cultural thing, I guess
Growing up in the 90s, this stuff was ubiquitous. Grandparents had it in powder form, my parents stocked it in syrup for milk or ice cream. Friends almost always had it as an option too at their houses. So good and so many great memories.
Never had any milk from a cow until I was nearly four years old. Thus, no chocolate milk. As you can imagine, we used a competing Hershey's branded product, since we were a No Nestle family.
You should never escape the time you put a turd in your mouth as a baby - thing is something like that will always be your fault. Meanwhile people running a company change, you know, because people die You have such *great* logic
@@kangaroofuno Even though both are owned by Nestle. I see Milo every time I go grocery shopping at Walmart, but I've never tried it. I looked it up, and Milo is originally from Australia and is also very popular in Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Africa.
Jungle Jaffa sounds very much like a chocolate orange flavour for the UK market since we have a bit of an obsession for Jaffa cakes and the name Jaffa is synonymous with oranges.
Not sure about the rest of the world but, over here in Mexico, Nesquik pops were in the shape of a bunny. They used to be the chocolate pop of choice until they changed the formula, resulting in people turning their backs on the product and it inevitably getting discontinued. Now, in it's place, there's Carlos 5th chocolate pops. Which is a national chocolate brand owned by Nestle.
I loved Quik in the metal tin that you used a spoon to pop open the metal lid...I'd eat the powder that floated to the top if it didn't dissolve 😂 strawberry was good too!
My brother God rest his soul loved a ice cold glass of chocolate milk made with nes quick. Him and I always got a box of the quick powder and it only lasted a few days.
You're mischaracterizing the statement Watchmojo made though. They were talking in respect to new flavors making it over the long-term. They're a nasty company, they're draining a river dry near me for a bottling plant of theirs and I hate it. But misinterpreting what Watchmojo was saying was an unfair dig.
@mattblom3990 I'd never give any Corp the benefit of anything publicly traded and less so to private firms like Nestle. Mainly due to my age because I have a memory and what corporations have done. ExxonMobil, Enron, BP, VW, Boeing . . . The list can go on.
@@petersarubbi Yeah I've got a Watchmojo tab open too right now. I'll not edit my original comment, I don't mind getting mocked if people want to dogpile me.
Before the Rabbit, there was Farfel the puppet dog with Danny O'Day. "N-E-S-T-L-E-S, Nestle's makes the very best- CHOCLATE!" From 1955 to 1965, it was Farfel in the US!!!! The vanilla Quik powder was nasty!
ovaltine was the only thing that I liked about england when I moved there in 1975. then it turned into a islamic state, so I left. but ovaltine will allways be close to my heart.
I remember ads for Nesquik on one of my VHS tapes for the Super Mario Bros Super Show. I've always been partial to the Powder of Nesquik, mostly cause I like it to where it's not fully mixed in, I like having a chunk of the powder in my drink. I'm weird I know.
I remember how people who collected those MUSCLE figures went nuts with the Nestle Quik promotion, because the wording made it sound like there was an exclusive figure, but the figures included were just the regular ones. But there was no way to know this without data!
Dipping my toasts in my glass of Nestle Quick was all wanted for breakfast when I was a kid. They changed the recipe in the 80s and it wasn’t the same after that!
This was a staple for me in boarding school it was so popular for cereal in the mornings they had to add it to the list of foods parents had to bring us every term😂I have nothing but good memories whenever I smell or taste Nesquik❤
Being that Nestle decided to go into the chocolate milk business the same year that "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" was playing, Nestle is fortunate that no one said, "Nesquik? Nesquik. We don't need no stinkin' Nesquik!"
I like that you mentioned the harmful health affects of Carrageenan in food products. I was having horrible symptoms, which I won't get into, and finally realized after my own research that it was carrageenan. After eliminating everything in my diet that had carrageenan as an ingredient, I was back to being healthy in about 4 weeks. When I followed up with my doctor to let her know what had caused my issues, she had never even heard of carrageenan, and said she was going to look into it! Wow. Too many people have issues from carrageenan and have no idea. And if doctors are not even educated about it, they continue to have these problems, which could easily be reversed, if only they knew.
It's funny how skinny Quicky is rendered today. As are most other food-related mascots. Imagine having a chubby food brand mascot in modern times. Though, I suppose the Kool-Aid man and The Pillsbury Doughboy could both be considered pudgy.
Born in 1957, my favorite milk flavoring was the original Bosco Chocolate Syrup which had a creamy mouth feel and warm malty caramel sweetness. It has a fascinating history, and sadly the formula has been radically changed and tastes terrible now if you can even find it on sale.
My all time favorite chocolate milk drink and I'm old enough to remember "Clanky." the I love strawberry too. They used too have banana too, I would of loved to try it. I usually make it with the ratio of 1/3 Quick to milk. I love the gooey bottom of chocolate after I finished the milk.
I remember Quik (the powered version though) but we also mostly drank Ovaltine which I think was supposed to be slightly better (less sugar) but also left sort of of a strange aftertaste though that I didn't care for.
4:07 Cookies 'N Cream is easily one of the greatest Lost Foods. My siblings and I used to just devour that dry mix during the short period they sold it in the 90s in our hometown.
When I was a kid I loved Quik, but only in the ready to drink form. Never cared for the powder. When I was 9-10 years old(around 1990) my dad and I were at the corner store and he bought me a Quik. I got out to the car opened up that paper container and took a big swig…and it was sour. So gross. I can still feel the chunks going down my throat. The store made it right and gave me a fresh one.
My dad left the container of nesquick on the counter once when I was a little kid, I took a spoonful of the powder and ate it. Never did that again because how horrible it was lol
2:20 The Treasure of Sierra Madre is a fantastic movie! It is fascinating how the three main characters seem to represent tribalism, socialism, and capitalism.

Your sister rocks
Savage!
You should've used pepper
I feel bad for this post. Idk whether to laugh or cry.
I feel so bad for laughing, but so thankful that you shared this ... 😆
The main thing I remember about Quik is it never, ever fully dissolved in milk
No cocoa does
Yeah reason I don't use powder drink mixes, I mix in chocolate syrup :3
Yea, it’s a bit disappointing
Yep it didn’t lol
The chocolate “sludge” at the bottom was the best part!(IMHO, that is)
I worked at Borders Books Cafe a couple years before they closed. A big deal was that they used Ghirardelli chocolate in the mochas. But when I started I saw a jar of Nesquik powder behind the counter. When I asked what it was for they said "oh that's for when we run out of the Ghirardelli, nobody notices any difference". LOL

Many spoons were bent trying to lift those old school metal Quik lid caps
And a few butter knives. 😅
Never happened to me tho
I remember those!
That’s why it’s best to use the end part of the spoon, not the main spoon part.
I miss that container

Still waiting for that I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter video
Nestle is a horrible company marred by controversies they should never escape.
you mean like their baby food is better than breast milk campaign esp in 3rd world country's
Yeah, human rights violations are bad, but chocolate is pretty tasty so it's a bit of a wash
You should never escape the time you put a turd in your mouth as a baby - thing is something like that will always be your fault. Meanwhile people running a company change, you know, because people die

Now that Nesquik has been mentioned, you guys should do one on Milo
Milo isn't as well known in the US as nesquik is
@@kangaroofuno Even though both are owned by Nestle. I see Milo every time I go grocery shopping at Walmart, but I've never tried it. I looked it up, and Milo is originally from Australia and is also very popular in Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Africa.
Only if that video has one on Otis too.

You can't drink it slow if it's Quik.
Yes, I'm this old.

There was a drunk guy in college who was infamous for mixing Jack Daniels and strawberry Quik powder...
That is certainly... a choice.
@@derekstein6193 He was NOT a well man...
What a legend.
What did he call it? A Quick Fix?
Jack be nimble
Jack be Quik
That strawberry brown concoction
Will make you sick
Do Yoo-hoo next, if you haven't yet.
Quick mixed with water instead of milk.
I loved Quik in the metal tin that you used a spoon to pop open the metal lid...I'd eat the powder that floated to the top if it didn't dissolve 😂 strawberry was good too!
Best part! Purposely putting too much powder first, then let the milk wet it enough to eat in the blobs before you stir it 😅
My brother God rest his soul loved a ice cold glass of chocolate milk made with nes quick. Him and I always got a box of the quick powder and it only lasted a few days.
The Nestle corporation never deserves the benefit of the doubt... they are one of the world's worst companies 🤦♂️😆

3:49 I find it interesting that vanilla Nesquik powder faded, while vanilla is one of the most common protein powder flavours.
Great childhood memories Chocolate and Strawberry.😋
The rabbit rocks!!!!!

It's weird that a rabbit advertising chocolate milk because chocolate will kill a rabbit
Not sure why but I was more into Ovaltine. Not sure why it was called Ovaltine. The mug is round. The can is round. Should have called it Roundtine.
I still drink Ovaltine
Ovaltine was called that because it originally had egg in it
I prefer Ovaltine too
ovaltine was the only thing that I liked about england when I moved there in 1975.
then it turned into a islamic state, so I left.
but ovaltine will allways be close to my heart.

when I was a kid, I loved Quik because I HATED the taste of plain milk
I keep hearing that muzak at 4:40 all over the place. The grocery store, other RUclips videos (sorted). Is it that royalty free?
I used to love sprinkling Nestle Quik on my cheerios!
I still do
I still remember the metal cans that were a pain to open and close
This was a staple for me in boarding school it was so popular for cereal in the mornings they had to add it to the list of foods parents had to bring us every term😂I have nothing but good memories whenever I smell or taste Nesquik❤
This is exactly the type of video I need today. Love this channel.
2:10 what was the purpose of the word "literally" in this sentence?
I still remember cookies n cream quik. There was a big cookies n cream craze in the late 90s.
Nothing is better than Quik powder!
Being that Nestle decided to go into the chocolate milk business the same year that "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" was playing, Nestle is fortunate that no one said, "Nesquik? Nesquik. We don't need no stinkin' Nesquik!"
The thing I remember most about Quick as a child is I would drink it so fast I'd get a stomach ache.
I was born in 1996 & I never was a Nesquick kid, I loved making chocolate milk with Hershey's chocolate syrup 🔥
TRIPLE CHOCOLATE??? Now you have my indivisible attention! 😳😃
In Canada, we had a chocolate 🍫 milk🥛 syrup called Brown Cow 🐮 It's mooLicious. I can't find it anywhere nowadays.😢

The history of Ovaltine
Be sure to drink your Ovaltine
3:01 advertising that would probably not fly today 😂😂😂
Thanks for this! 🍫🥛🐮
I wish there was still a mascot called “Quickie”
It's funny how skinny Quicky is rendered today. As are most other food-related mascots. Imagine having a chubby food brand mascot in modern times. Though, I suppose the Kool-Aid man and The Pillsbury Doughboy could both be considered pudgy.
I sometimes make chocolate milk for myself, and cocoa powder is hard to stir into cold milk. It definitely is a pretty good product
Almond milk also goes a lot further back in history than I had thought.
Mixing chocolate and stawberry is really good
doctors also prescribed heroine, cocaine, and whiskey
I believe chocolate milk was relatively harmless in comparison

In second grade I won a blue plastic cup with the Quik Bunny on it, and I still have it.
As a child, the ONLY way I could swallow the raw milk my mom bought from a nearby farm was with this stuff.
Now I want chocolate milk
Strawberry banana would be dope
4:07 Cookies 'N Cream is easily one of the greatest Lost Foods.
My siblings and I used to just devour that dry mix during the short period they sold it in the 90s in our hometown.
Waiting for my nesquik protein shakes 😋

The store made it right and gave me a fresh one.
Pretty sure strawberry banana is still widely available. I see it in gas stations in my area.
You can still buy vanilla and strawberry syrup in canada
Quik was the only kind of milk I would drink as a child. Though now that I am an adult, I don't have to drink milk at all!
good video
I was just looking up the ice screamers bars yesterday I wish they where still made 😢
I thought Quick was okay, good enough if I couldn't find Hershey syrup - and that only after I couldn't get Bosco anymore.
Now how about a brief history of Ovaltine.
I craved strawberry Nesquik when I was pregnant. Now I never drink it.
I’m just happy they finally stopped using carrageenan
I wondered why i never saw Nesquick chocolate puffs in american cereal breakfast tier lists. Same with Fitness.
Nestle Quick was a huge part of my childhood, and it hasn’t changed all that much
Even I'm in 30s I still love drinking that chocolate drink bunny
Do a munch bunch yogurt history video please😊😅😊
10:33 Third Street Promenade is in Santa Monica.
My dad left the container of nesquick on the counter once when I was a little kid, I took a spoonful of the powder and ate it. Never did that again because how horrible it was lol
At least France got the mascot right with a fat blob.
Basically what you became if all you drank was Nesquik.
Cookies N Cream was soo good. I miss that flavor 😢
Can you do a video about Morton breakfast foods, like their donuts?
Nice 😊
Where TF is the banana milk POWDER??? I haven't seen it since the 2000s.
It made delicious chocolate milk. The strawberry was also good.
Thanks for usuful and valuable video as always
I keep thinking that this narrator sounds as though she's trying to sound like Mayim Bialik. Seeing that scene with Sheldon and Amy strengthens that.
I hope this is a quik video. I don’t have much time.
Can we talk about Nestle corporation and water?
So much better than Hershey, which is made with sour milk!
Do a munch bunch yogurt history video please
I need to look for videos about Tang and YooHoo
A+ video!
LOVE IT! I have loved Quik since the first time I tried it in elementary school!
Tried Nesquik cookies once. Immediately threw them away.
Dind Nestle said water is not a human right?

It is fascinating how the three main characters seem to represent tribalism, socialism, and capitalism.

are we gonna complain about the thumbnail this episode, guys?
Someone gave me bunch free nestle bars i gave em to my local food bank. I hate evil nestle but i refuse waste food of any kind. 😮
I drink a LOT of chocolate Nesquik with cocoa added-
nesquik is very tasty and in brazil we have the strawberry one
also mexico made a nesquik cereal
OK but what is Milo?
