Does anyone remember a popcorn snack called screaming yellow zonkers?
Yes. There was also a caramel version that was similar to Cracker Jacks that was called Fiddle Faddle.
I do but I don’t think I ever had them.
They were yummy
Yes, thanks for mentioning them!
I wrote to them around 1980. They sent a nice letter n coupons n stickers I could put on the dash! My kids loved it!
Anybody remember Durkee's potato sticks in a cardboard can? Loved those!!
I think my mom substituted the potato sticks when we didn’t have real potatoes for dinner
I think those still exist... or at least other brands do.
Oh yeah...now that you mentioned them. I do remember them.
They were the best. I’ve never found any like them again.
Sure do! Dad used to bring home potato sticks in a can for the family to snack on! I discovered some knock offs at the Dollar store. They were close but not Durkee's!
Orange push-ups were made of orange sherbert packed into a cardboard tube. You pushed the sherbert up and out with a skinny stick at the bottom.
They’re still around.
Yes I love them can't find them anymore
@@chriscarson8218 Walmart has them & some Dollar General’s do as well.
@@jamesmartin8385where!
I remember those. I loved them.
Snowballs. 2 pack of Hostess snack cakes. Marshmallow and coconut covered chocolate cake, with a cream filling. You could peel off the marshmallow "cap" and eat it after the cake part was devoured. The marshmallow was usually pink or white. Utterly delicious.
They still make Hostess snowballs
My sister and I made a snowball cake from a recipe found on the internet. It was very good.
They still make the snowballs - only in the pink coconut 🥥 - not white. I buy them in Walmart’s.
@@dorothyjohnson3728I love snowballs ! Hostess still keeps them on the shelves, I love the green ones on st Patrick’s day 😊
@@gina2464 gotcha!
It's not the snacks we miss. It's the time in our life that they remind us of. Where we had our youth and our future was nothing but infinite possibility.
You are right. I love this channel because it brings back memories from when I was a kid in the 50's and 60's. The future seemed limitless. We were supposed to be living like the Jetsons by now, well according to the science and futuristic mags I used to read as a kid.
@@Dadsezso Still no flying cars. Just phones that vacuum up our time and dreams.
❤
Aww... That reminds me of Dairy Queen. Before my parents moved to Arizona, all of the local Dairy Queen locations had closed except in the Orange Julius at the Mall. The first summer I visited my parents after they moved to Arizona, mom took me to the Flamingo in Laughlin where there was a Dairy Queen. Mom and I called those dipped cones "comfort food that brings good memories."
The Memory: When we were really little, my mom would stop at a Dairy Queen in Alhambra on the way home from Huntington beach. If money was good, we got chocolate dip; if money was tight we got plain vanilla (I worked that out as an adult, ha ha). We never complained, I guess because Dairy Queen soft serve is a treat whether chocolate dipped or not.
EXACTLY! WELL SAID! I AM 65, ALMOST 66 & MISS IT ALL😢
*I never had a favorite potato chip. But I am nostalgic for the time when the potato chips filled the bag*
That ended a long time ago....sadly.
Someone else left the exact same comment.
@@MomentsInTradingHow could that be? Are they messing with us?😃

Damn!!
I totally forgot that Hi-C used to be sold in a big ass can!!!!! The memories. 😊
Same as Hawaiian punch!
@@user-dj7wv5ok2x
Yeah, it sure did!! 😄
I remember most of these snacks from my childhood. Also miss Dentyne gum & Hostess Suzie Q’s.
Ditto for the Howard's gum and mints!!
What? No Dentyne?😮
@@marknewton6984 Or Devil Dogs?!
Do you remember Fizzies? You dropped a tablet into a glass of water and it fizzed like an Alka Seltzer to make a flavored drink. They quit making them because they banned the artificial sweetener that was in them and they couldn't find a replacement that worked.
Yes. I remember those. That was the only junk food we ever had when I was growing up. Fizzies and occadionally those Tid bits crackers.
And Tang in a little jar.
I sure do. We lived in Southern California and drove Route 66 back to Kansas to visit family every summer. On our way there we would stop in Albuquerque to visit cousins. Our cousins had never seen Fizzies before. My brother and I dug them out from the food box and laid them on the table in our travel trailer. The cousins thought it was like candy so popped them in their mouths! The tablets began to foam. My cousins started crying which only made it all worse. They ran out of the trailer into the yard still crying but the foam was coming out of ones nose and mouth.
My brother and I got in so much trouble.
That would be hard to forget
Cyclamates.
Does anyone remember the Jello
1-2-3 desserts? You whipped up the mix and it made 3 different types of jello textures in the same glass. Regular jello was on the bottom. A medium type fluffy layer was in the middle. Then an extra light layer was in the top. They were SO good! I sure wish they still made them. 🥺
I remember!
I forgot about them.
I remember. It created a light-as-air version of a layered parfait diet of thing. I liked making them when I was a kid
OMG yes. And you could make FROZEN jello 1-2-3, which I adored. To this day, whenever I make jello, I try to remember how I used to make those light, frozen versions. For the life of me, I could not remember. Until I saw your comment. Wow you made my day.
Yes, I do! I just posted almost the exact thing you posted. That stuff was so good! They really should bring it back
I miss the real Charles Chips. Charles Chips were delivered to your home in 5lb or 2lb cans. The cans were picked up with the next delivery and washed and reused. They continued with their delivery service into the eighties. Another snack company bought them out in the 90’s and changed the recipe and started packing them in bags. I heard they had been bought out again and the recipe changed back but too much time has passed. They now sell for over $30.
They were the best chips! My parents became distributors when we moved to a place that didn't have them. They're definitely not the same now.
Hey, I still have a Charles Chips can!!!!
Yeah, another company CEO who loved Charles Chips was mad at the 2nd owners debasement of it. If you go to Cracker Barrel or Charles Chips. Sadly they only offer 16oz tins of crackers now. I remember the small flat tins of cookies and the really tall tins for chips.
Just ordered C Chips from their headquarters. Horrible customer service and SLOW delivery! My brother finally received his; had to cancel delivery to a friend who was recovering from shoulder surgery. Brother did say, however, the barbeque chips were very good.
@@aaaaaeiou me too
Anyone remember the large sweet tarts that came 2 in a pack and which closely resembled a laundry detergent made in the same shape? I was addicted to them.Also candy necklaces.
I loved those huge SweeTarts "tablets" especially cherry & grape.
They lasted me the whole day. 😋
Haha! I was JUST telling my daughter about this. Giant Sweetarts for life ❤
And we might as well add the dots on paper and the wax tubes with liquid inside. Have no idea what they called the wax things.
Ha! Candy necklaces and
candy cigarettes. Also
flavored wax made into
rings, teeth, etc..
@@dustyflats3832 Wax bottles.
I miss the local bread stores like rainbow and wonderbread where we could get all kinds of yummy snacks, danishes, the little pies with filling, etc. for discounted prices.
We had a Hostess outlet store near us. We could buy the fruit pies for 10 cents each there. Loaves of wonder bread were like 30 cents. It was a great place for carb freaks like me.
Rainbow Bread & their outlet shops had some great wholesale snacks
My hometown had an Orowheat Bakery outlet store. My dad used to buy bread there.
Yes hostess outlets
I miss mrs Bairds bitty pecan pies n Dolly Madison diet breakers. Those snowball things are gone or regional. I miss water that you could drink from the tap without needing a purifying gizmo. I do Not miss Pong.
It's kinda sad they discontinued TidBits. They were perfect for Tomato soup.I think they had the perfect crispiness and cheesiness.
I loved them. Always hope they would bring them back.
I miss these the most out of all on this video.
I remember them! Yummy
If you bit them just right, they would snap in half length-wise.
I always like tidbits better than Cheez-Its.
Chocolate fudge keebler cookies, Tater skins and Brach's maple nut goodies. I remember when all the Brach's candy was in a a huge bin and you could buy it by the pound. 🙂
Dare Cookie Co. makes fudge filled chocolate cookies. There are other flavors too, lemon, or maple cookies too. I get them at Big Lots store.
I remember that, there were bags you put your candy in using a scoop. Tater skins were a favorite because they were thicker than potato chips. I remember Highland Potato Chips, came in 2 wax paper bags in a cardboard box.
Yes I remember you could get all the brachs candies at all the 5& dime stores
OMG, Yes! We had a Dime Store. When you first entered the whole counter was surrounded by a glass display case FULL of bulk candy! Chocolate Stars! You could always smell a fresh batch of those and they have never tasted the same since. Did our taste buds get dull or they just leave out the coco now?
Chocolate covered peanuts and raisins, candied maple sugar, pink wintergreen mints (lozenges?), chocolate covered cremes and More. And if that wasn’t enough the other side of the square checkout had single commercial wrapped candy bars.
Sad the old building burned down around 2009.
MAPLE NUT GOODIES. I still get depressed about not having these candies. I purchased a similar version on Amazon and they were disgusting. 🤢
Both Dad and myself just LOVED Nabisco's Bacon Thins. We were so sad when the company discontinued them. 😢😢
I used to love a bologna sandwich, on good old wonder bread, mayonnaise, and potato chips mashed into the sandwich.
Totally agree with mashing the chips into the sandwich.
Yes! I like chips on a tuna fish sandwich!
I've been making bologna & onion sandwiches on white bread with mayo ever since Fred Sanford said it was Lamont's favorite sandwich😊
I still put chips in my sandwich ❤
I used to put potato chips on my sandwich but realized by the time i was half way through they were no longer crunchy so now i just eat them along side the sandwich, pizza too. 👍
Not discontinued, but just nostalgic, just the other day I glanced at a bag of Bugles in the store and thought, "I haven't had Bugles for 45 years". Yep, they tasted just like they did in 1978, but no longer fit on my fingers. 🤤
Aawww
I was in Dollar Tree just the other day and saw they had small bags of Bugles. I looked at them trying to remember if I liked them or not. I remembered I didn't and moved on.....
Dollar general has bugles in peanut butter and chocolate one, mmmm-mmm addicting. The original ones always were gross lol
I was a pizza spins lover as a kid
Better eat as many as you can today for they are going to be next
The box made them better.😁
Loved the banana flips! Would like to see them return.
Me too
@@bryanspindle4455- Maybe I'd eat them without the high fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated oil. But I'm old enough to remember when snack cakes didn't use those cheaper, more unhealthy ingredients (that also don't taste as good).
@@loki2240 Soft drinks didn't have corn syrup either. I saw a recipe a while back for making homemade banana flips. I need to try making them.
hostess makes banana twinkies now
Yes, I that's the first thing I thought of!
I miss Cheese Waffies. They were brought back but are gone again. Loved the sharp cheese filling with the crunchy waffle-like outside.
I remember something that I loved grandma had them back in the 50's came in a tube type container can't remember name or maker.
Me also. Wise discontinued but found Utz ones. Then Utz discontinued. 😔
Does anyone remember Pop Rocks or Space Dust?
The only prank I ever played on a cat was feeding one of my cats Pop Rocks. Yes, it was funny and yes, I still feel a twinge of guilt thinking about it.
I can never forget them.... it was the hospital trip ....and learning I was allergic to red dye.
@@truthinthefaceoftyranny Yikes!!
Pop rocks are still being made. I saw some in a store a week ago.
Just had new oreos "space" flavor, with pop rocks mixed in filling. Delicious and fun!
Another thing I liked was the SNACKIN' CAKE mixes. You would mix the cake in a little cardboard box and bake it in the same box, and it came with a pouch of cake frosting just big enough to frost the small cake. It was really a nice size when you didn't want to bake up a regular cake mix. Just big enough for SNACKIN'. And no dishes to wash after!
We used to get those all the time. If I remember, the only thing you had to add to them was water. Very quick and easy. Great for a mid week dessert for our family of four.
There was a brand called Stir and Frost, I took those when I was in college. Didn't have to have extra pans or ingredients
Unusual concept!
never got snakin cake just the normal mixes and who would think they shrunk those and pple say they dont taste the same either
@@dmdohse55 I don't think I tried it either, but when I was a kid, I loved the boxed cake mixes. We always got that on our birthday.
Brach's Pick-a-Mix, is missed.
Kudos , Pudding Pops , and Tidbits were all good snacks
also maple nut goodies, from brach's Pick-a-mix. so good!
I miss Puddin' Pops - especially the banana ones. Wish they'd bring those back.
Brach’s Pick-a-Mix was a favorite for sure 👍🏻
Pudding Pops were my favorite and I miss them so much!
I also desperately miss Dole Pudding in the cans. That canned pudding was the best!
You can make the pudding pops
I will be 58 this month, I feel old watching this....I really do miss these times.
Don't feel old, feel lucky to have been around and experienced such wonders.
@@GentleRain21Try age 83 !! Have also lived with no indoor plumbing ,electric , etc
I love it. 🥰
I'm glad I grew up in those years no matter how old I get! The best!
The survivor of all those General Mills snacks was Bugles
I remember they also had Daisys and Whistles at the same time. Bugles outlasted both of them.
it seems like Bugles was out of the market for a long while, but now I see them everywhere again
@@Marcel_Audubon They sell spicy Bugles now, too. I liked Whistles. Are you related to John James...? ☺🐦🦅🦜🦆🦢
Kraft grape jelly
I loved them back in the day & then they disappeared. Popped up again in the late 90’s
I remember "Funny Face" drink mix. They came in packets to mix with water.
Yes! I still call my red haired sister Freckle Face Strawberry. She's still not amused LOL 😊😅
We loved Funny Face drink mix better than Koolaid because you didn't need to add sugar! It already came sweetened. You just added water and mixed well. With Koolaid, you needed to make sure you had sugar on hand before you made any. No one liked unsweetened Koolaid!
@@tearosy 😄😅
We had a Goofy Grape plastic pitcher. You had to have so many Funny Face packets. You mailed them in and you got a pitcher. Of course, you could just send some money.

Burry (cookie company) used to make these great peanut butter sandwich cookies called Gauchos in the seventies. To this day, I still have dreams about them!
I found a recipe for homemade Gauchos online a couple of years ago. Never tried it, but it's probably still there if you search.
Gauchos were my all time favorite. I associate them with the Girl Scout annual sale.
My dear old dad used to love them things. I love peanut butter in Reese’s and crackers but for some reason I never acquired a taste for it in cookies.He liked the Lance version called Nekot too from what I remember.
I LOVED them!
Pulcinella fruit drink , came in a can
Bugles. So crunchy and delicious, hollow cone shaped snacks. Plus you could pop them on your fingers and wiggle them around before you ate them.
They still make Bugles. I often see them in 7-Eleven.
I still buy them at giant eagle
And at Murphys
Still at every grocery store
Bugles are still sold.
Who remembers Fizzies? Tablets that,when dissolved in water,became carbonated. I remember grape,cola and root beer.
I do! I loved those! ( :
I've heard of those....wish they would come back out with them, especially with the cost of soda pop being so high.
@@dragon92768 I know,right? I drink way too much Canada Dry Zero Sugar Ginger Ale. It was over $8 for a 12 pk at WalMart last week. Didn’t buy it ☹️
Root beer was the best
I don't remember the name but I do remember flavored tablet things meant to flavor and carbonate water as a kid. It was basically like Alka Seltzer but without the medicine bit and with more flavoring.
Does anyone remember Shake a Pudding from back in the late 60's and early 70's! It came in a cup. Add milk and shake till it thickens up! That was real good ! Wish they would bring that back!!!
Loved it. Ran around my house singing the jingle.
I do….I do…..!…I too would sing the jingle! It was SUCH a treat to get a shake a pudding!!!!!
That was awesome!
What about Great Shakes? You added milk to the powder and shook it in the plastic shaker. It thickened up to consistency of a milk shake. We loved them
@@tearosy I just looked up a commercial thinking it might jog my memory, but I don't remember it. Looks like that's the same idea as Shake-a-pudding, though.
I miss 'Chunky' chocolate bars. Its commercial was a cartoon of a guy eating a bar with the slogan, "Open wide for Chunky!" Miss Bonomo Turkish Taffy, too! And there was the Caravelle bar - peanut butter and chocolate.
Chunky candy bars used to be really thick and back in the day used cashews instead of regular peanuts like they do now.
@@Tom-ok2rh if Chunky bars are still being made I'd like to know where I can get them. They've disappeared from where I live
@@sandraphillips5091 I just did a quick research and locally here they are at Walmart and Walgreens and more than likely they’re available at Amazon if you want a bunch of them 😐😐
Cracker Barrel has chunky
@@giabarger7686 thank you! there's a Cracker Barrel near where I live
I remember the marathon candy bar,braided like a rope,could last half a day after freezing. 😊aaawww,the good ole days.😢
That was my favorite candy bar!
With the cool cowboy all in white?
Cadbury makes them. They're called Whirly Twirlys. Jungle Jim's stores sell them in the British food section.
I miss buying ding dongs wrapped in foil, and after eating the treat we would make silver coins for our treasure chests. It was fun making them as well seeing how rich we were.
I also miss from the 1990’s Butterfinger BB’s they were small round pellets in plastic bags.
Butterfinger BB's were awesome!
I liked the butterfinger ice cream bars
I'd forgotten they came in foil! What I remember is all the name changes due to TV marketing. Back when cartoonish mascots were all the rage (example: the cast of McDonald's characters), Ding Dongs were renamed King Ding Dongs! I think that Twinkies had a cowboy? Anyway, eventually the Ding Dongs were renamed King Dongs...
Before they finally went back to Ding Dongs...
YES YES YES!!!!! and Yankee Doodles, and Scooter Pies
I used to do the exact same thing with the Ding Dong foil. Wow, what memories....now I'm sad. 😥
Gosh, I loved Doo Dads. I liked them better than the Chex Mix because of the peanuts.
Me too!! They were so good!! I was just talking to a friend about them today!
I miss doo dads,so savory!
I never heard of them 🤔
Better taste than Chex mix.
Doo dads were the best!
I miss Twigs. They were sorta like Tid Bits but had sesame seeds too. So good!
I remember them.
Don't know why but that reminded me of a cereal I once found in a "discount bin" at a California grocery store. I can't remember the brand or exact name but it was something along the lines of "twigs and bark" and it had a strong resemblance to such. It was a "high fiber" cereal I got out of curiosity since it was so deeply discounted. I can see why it was discounted.
My absolute favorite. 👍🏻👍🏻
Remember snack pack pudding in the tin can ?.. something about that made it taste alot better than todays snack pack
I remember Ayds diet candies back in the 70's. LOVED those! Would eat those right after my Libbyland dinner! Miss the 70's...
Oh geez, I had a brief obsession w/Libbyland dinners*; think that half a hot dog one got me into Swanson's:/..
My mom used to buy Ayds and saved the boxes for storage. I'll never forget the Christmas my sister put my father's gift in an Ayds box and he opened it up and you could see this look on his face like what the heck until he opened up the box
My mom used to get them. They faded away around the time that AIDS started making the news in the '80s. Not great publicity.
😂. Same
Yes! My Mom ate Ayds and loved to drink her diet soda called Tab.
Thanks, Grandma, for the carrot sticks, celery sticks, raisins, and grapes!
My grandma gave us things like tomato sandwiches (German Johnson tomato slice with mayo salt and pepper on bread), fresh watermelon, fresh cucumbers, homemade dill pickles, cake (she would make a new cake every week). My grandpa would give us all sorts of nuts and citrus fruits and peanuts. The typical Christmas gift from him was a bag of mixed citrus and a bag of mixed nuts, still in the shell because they tasted better. My grandma also made buttermilk biscuits.
People today miss out on so much due to people not being able to cook and not having a home garden.
And the ancient hard candies that were always laying around 🤣
Ding Dongs in the foil wrapper, really good, and Carnation breakfast bars.
Those banana flips were delicious. Also loved suzy-q's. Reminiscent of a whoopie pie😀
Kudo bars were amazing!!! I loved those things!!!!
I had no idea they were gone. It has been many years since I bought them.
Yes!!
Too sweet!
I could’ve sworn I saw them recently.
@@gymeni do tell us where. I had forgotten all about them until this video.
Hydrox: "The other Oreo." Loved the sharp taste of the filling!
Loved the mint Hydrox!
Hydrox came before Oreos 😊
They were the first and the best
Ironic, considering that they were the original chocolate sandwich cookie with a cream filling!
There is a local ice cream shop chain in Pittsburgh that uses Hydrox instead of Oreos for a topping
😂 retro greetings from coastal Mississippi. As a child of the 70's, l remember these delicious items. Miss A&P stores. With the high prices today, l would go back in time and stock up 😂 Thanks for the research and memories
A&P where great stores loved the one on 13th street downtown Gulfport smell of coffee beans being ground 😇
@@gulfportflamefighter4545 🤠 howdy neighbour. Good friends are like good memories. Always good to have around. Love Gulfport Ms
American snacks are a whole different universe.
I saw a documentary about 'Funyuns" and have had a craving for them ever since.
Back in the 80s, I used to love Carnation Breakfast Bars, especially the chocolate chip!
The Carnation Instant Breakfast drinks were the best
@@samanthab1923Lived on those carnation instant breakfast packets in college. Better than ramen by far!
And the frosted brownie-like Breakfast Squares. I liked the chocolate malt variety. Weren't they also Carnation?
@@samanthab1923chocolate marshmallow 😋 still crave it
OMG! Me too! When they stopped making them I was devastated! I have yet to find a bar that even remotely comes close to the consistency or taste. They were soooo good! My grandmother used to always have a box of the chocolate chip ones in the kitchen cabinet. 😋
I miss Screaming Yellow Zonker’s. Buttery popcorn, with a sweet coating that I have not been able to find anything like it since it was discontinued.
I can't find them either. 😢😢😢
@@eileenweeks1815Try Dollar Tree.
I liked them back then but now I think I would find them too sweet.
Discontinued
Fiddle Faddle too
I really miss Stella D’oro Como Delights! When I was young, we would always visit my father’s cousin. After dinner, the percolator was on, we’d sit around talking. They’d bring out boxes of Italian cookies. My aunt Gloria (my father’s cousin, but I called her aunt), would make me a cup of tea and put out a package of Como Delights right in front if me. Those were the best, to dunk in the tea. I wish they still made them.
ooo it was so easy to eat way too many of them!
Can't remember the name of them but I used to love the Stella D'oro cookies that had the little circle of chocolate fudge in the middle of the cookie.
I miss Stir 'n Frost cakes. The box had cake mix, icing and pan. You combined the mix with water, poured it into the pan and baked it, then added the icing. It made enough for about 6 servings and was DIVINE.
That was for the Susie Homemaker. I had one of those.
They now sell individual cakes you make in microwave and andconnthe frosting after. Duncan Hines and Betty crocker sell several flavors. Equals 1 serving of cake.
Aunt Jemima ( I know is no such brand any longer 🙄 ) used to have a coffee cake that was really good. Mixed it in the plastic bag , poured into the enclosed metal tray and topped with enclosed streusel topping. Very tasty.
I definitely remember the Space Sticks from the early 70’s. My mom had most of these snacks in our food pantry. Thanks for the memories! ❤
They were the best
Never had one, or haven't heard of them.
Space sticks were a funky taste and texture but I ate them anyway. I kind of liked them.
Yeah! Space food sticks! They didn’t taste much like food, but I loved them!
Loved 'em!
My granny would send me up the street for the newspaper and give me enough change to get a dreamsicle too. Oh how wonderful the 70s were.
Kraft Fudgies - chocolate cubes wrapped in gold foil. Loved 'em!
Saw those a few years ago at a gas station in Traverse City Michigan!!
Banana Flips, haven’t heard about those goodies in a long time. They were the BOMB!
I remember two dessert mixes that I always liked - Whip 'n' Chill - kind of a cross between pudding and whipped cream, and 1-2-3, which you would shake and pour into dessert glasses, and it would separate into 3 separate layers. We loved making those.
I loved jello 1-2-3! Bring it back!!!!
Loved whip and chill, used to make that, and a powdered mix called dream whip that made milk into a whipped topping a bit like Cool Whip, and served them for desert. I think was about 9 years old when I did that, put it in champagne glasses and thought it was so fancy!
@@lynnwartinger9547 Dream Whip is still around. The stores usually stock it with the pudding mixes and Jello. I use it quite a bit
@@lynnwartinger9547 Some people would turn up their noses at Dream Whip, but if I remember correctly, you made it with milk and it whipped up very nicely, and I think that it was much better than Cool Whip! In fact, Dream Whip may still be available in stores today. I'll have to check next time I go. I thought it was a pretty good substitute when you didn't have "real" whipping cream.
whipand chillwas from the 60s 70s missthat
I remember way back to the 60's,...a red gummy that was shaped as a coin.....was very popular...bought by kids for 2 cents each.....and also,...the colorful dot candy on paper...
Red Hot Dollars! I loved that raspberry taste.
Don't remember any of the snacks they mentioned but I remember those gummies. It was a great flavor! Better than any gummy....better than swedish fish!!!
The “dot” candy on paper is still sold in the dollar tree stores.
1975? I totally remember the taste of those Pizza Wheels. DamnI'm old
Thank you for including Space Snacks! Its been so long since Ive seen anything about them that I was starting to think they were just my imagination. I LOVED those things! And Carnation Instant Breakfast? Remember those?
I loved Carnation Instant Breakfast too!
What about Space Food Sticks? They were fake NASA astronaut food, plastic tasting but so cool in your lunch box, from around 1970.
Carnation instant breakfasts, and there was a similar packaged powder called malted. However, it's possible it was the same thing just mixed differently. My dad used to put a raw egg in them. Of course, then I had to copy him!
Loved Space Food Sticks! I think there were two kinds, chocolate, and the peanut butter flavor was sooo good!
Space sticks were the best back then!
I want Tid Bits to come back! Let's start a petition.
Tell me where to sign!
@@shannon_w.
I didn't even know that they were removed from the shelves, and now that I know I want them back. Yeah, where do I sign ?
That's funny, because I don't go to the store anymore so I didn't miss them until now. Nobody tells me anything around here. 😊
Perfect for dipping! Didn’t break, perfect dipped:grabbed portion ratio!
They are and always have been available in Canada. They're marketed as Cheese Bits. They come in a dark blue box and are easy to find.
@mg2779 I bought them, but they didn't taste the same. Plus, since I'm in the US they were very expensive.
Sunshine Hydrox cookies. The original sandwich cookie.
Yep. A better cookie than oreo
I remember Lemon Coolers, made by Sunshine, They had a powdered sugar coating. They were my favorite cookie.
There is a local ice cream shop chain in Pittsburgh that uses Hydrox instead of Oreos for a topping
Yes Banana Flips would be a great one to reintroduce.
I agree 1000% to bring back Tid-Bits, Jello Pudding Pops and Ecto Cooler. But I also want Mr. T cereal and O'Boisies potato chips.
I loved Hostess Chocodiles.
As an adult, I miss Entenmann's New York Style Crumb Coffee Cake.
Edit: Tostettes were way better than Pop-tarts.
If you can find them there is ding dongs made with twinkle cake that taste like chocodiles.
I thought 'Tostettes' were better also. They had more of a baked taste...
Yes they were much better.
HoHo's are smaller also.
Pop tarts taste like flavored drywall.
I love Moon Pies….and you can still get them.
Yes - in the dollar tree stores. I buy them for my son.
I saw a story on yt about moonpies. They were developed for coal miners. I think in Tennessee
I would be soooo grateful for the return of Carnation Breakfast Bars!!!
Pudding Pops were good, I do miss them. I also miss Doo Dads.
As soon as I saw the title of the video, I said to myself "Tidbits better be on there!" 😅
Tid Bits were awesome. My Mother always put them in my lunch in 1979.
Same here hon 🤗❤️ I feel so privileged. I guess we were...
My Mom loved those!

❤The good old days❤wish some of these would come back😊
AS A KID, THE NUNS IN MY CATHOLIC SCHOOL WOULD SELL CANDY AT RECESS, I LOVED BLACK LICORICE SHAPED ROUND LIKE A RECORD WITH A RED HARD CANDY IN THE MIDDLE.
Yes - they made cherry 🍒 too.
Kellogg's made Danish Go Rounds which were in the same space as Pop Tarts-- that they also made...and still do. I preferred the Danish Go Rounds as a kid, but they didn't last long.
I remember and liked Danish Go-Rounds
I loved Danish go Rounds. Wish they were still made.
Yep, another DGR fan here.
Wondering if a Pop Tart machine malfunctioned & somebody said ' Wait, we can sell this somehow..'
I LOVED Danish go rounds-I think they were better than pop tarts!
Did they have little icing packets like toaster strudel?
Not that they were discontinued but my family and I moved to the West. So it's harder to find Wise Owl potato chips, Ruffles chips and good molasses cookies.
its a local/regional brand. i think i got some at NYNY hotel in Vegas
I'm unfamiliar with many of these and suspect they were regional. My favorite snack was Charlie's Chips.
@@jaysotherwife6007same here. I think I only knew the banana flip, crunch tators and koogle
Here in AZ many of the big lots stores have them frequently
Wise potato chips were a national brand. Unfortunately they're now hard to find in most places. You can get them online but you can imagine the shape they arrive in.
I think it was Breyers or Lucerne Black Cherry ice cream i was addicted to. They used beet juice for the coloring which was gorgeous.
Jello Pudding Pops. Yum. Loved that crunchy ice shell that covered it.
You can make them. Only 2 ingredients
I miss the space food sticks so much!! I would love to have one now. I can still remember the taste and texture 😊
I remember exactly where my mom kept them and asking for permission to get one. I can still see myself opening the drawer and pulling one out. So vivid and I have no idea why that particular memory stays with me. I was like 8.
I never had one, or even heard of them. I guess it depends on where you live.
@@-greentoad they were made by pillsbury, I believe
Me too! Vanilla was my favorite flavor:)
I remember the taste and texture too. Why? They were kind of weird but I ate them because they were supposed to be nutritious.
If anyone misses Ecto Cooler,Juicy Juice Orange Tangerine tastes almost identical (and is probably healtier). I get some every so often (and I'm slightly ashamed to admit I sometimes add a couple drops of green food coloring to the jug to complete the experience...).
Anything to get your "fix"! LOL
I'll have to tell my husband because he LOVED Ecto Cooler!
@@shannon_w.I'm not sure if it's IDENTICAL, but it's VERY close, especially if you haven't had it in a few years.
Why did they change the color of Ecto Cooler from green to orange?? Some people don't believe me when I say I remember it being green 😭
@@mph1ishorange is the actual color. They just added green food coloring to tie in with Ghostbusters. And kept it when the first renamed it to "Screamin' Orange Tangergreen" in the late 90s.
One I remember that only lasted a year or so. Borden had a milkshake in a can. A canned ready to slurp milkshake. I occasionally got my parents to buy me one back around '63-'64.
I loved those
I had one for lunch every day at school. I used to freeze the can and at lunchtime it was still really cold. I lost a lot of weight as that was my lunch.
Thanks for mentioning the name as I had forgotten. I thought about them the other day
One thing you missed is Nabisco's Chocolate Snaps. They were in the line of Ginger snaps and Vanilla Wafers.
If we're thinking of the same thing they also had chocolate chip cookies too. Loved them all
Yes, I remember them! Some even came in a small box (like the animal crackers) love the shoe string like handle and bear made out of the chocolate snaps, on the box!
I remember Sour cream and onion Doritos. I used to get a bag with a soda pop and a comic book and be entertained for a few hours
They were my favorite chip back in the day.
Taco flavor Doritos.
Bacon Crackers from Nabisco. I loved those things in high school and haven't seen anything similar in ages. There was also a swiss cheese cracker from about the same time (late 80s/early 90s).
Yes, youre right.
I forgot about those.
Had them New Years
Eve with the old english cheese, and rolka blue, and pineapple came in those little glass jars
Miss roka blue
Me too!!!!!!!
Those bacon crackers were soooo yummy! About 10 or so years ago Ritz came out with a bacon flavor cracker and I bought some, hoping they would taste like those bacon crackers,but the Ritz ones were horrendous!
I forgot about the Swiss cheese crackers!Those were amazing!!
Wise Cheese Waffies were my favorite as a kid into my adult life. I believe the factory that manufactured it in Clifton, NJ closed down a few years ago. Surprised that no other company tried to copycat the item.
Loved Cheese Waffies- like Cheetos turn your fingers orange, Waffies turned them yellow- yum,yum…😊
I Loved Them. I still yearn for them. Whyyyyyy are they gone? Wise, Bring them back.
I believe Utz brought them back but then discontinued them also. 😔
Miss all the good snacks 😋. Wish they would all come back 👍
Anyone remember Choc-O-Lite candy bars from the early 1970's? It was air-infiused and was satisfying without being heavy.
I remember Choc-0-lite
I remember the Wig Wag candy bars.
Those were my favorite candy bars as a kid.
That almost sounds like a 3 Musketeers. Were they like that?
@@marniebaker-winnick2296 Nothing like it. There was no nougat. It was just chocolate with air pockets in it.
Tid Bits were awesome. I don’t go out and buy snacks often. At Christmas family makes Chex Mix. I could eat that for hours! Liked the pizza spins too.
My dad also used Tidbits in his Christmas Chexmix!
Nice!
My Dad worked for Nabisco when I was a kid growing up and he would bring them home and all the new items for us to try out before they got to the supermarkets. I miss Toastetts too.
I wish I could have some now! Goldfish aren’t the same.
@@frankrizzo4460My cousins lived across the street from a guy who worked for Kelloggs. I remember them getting tons of Frosted Mini Wheats when they were testing them out.
Buitoni toaster pizza! My brother and I LIVED for those. I can still remember the taste.
That's exactly what I was going to comment about. They were the best. A round pop tart-ish pizza-filled toaster snack. I wondered if they discontinued them because of lawsuits over how many kids who, famished after getting home from school, ate them fast. SO MANY mouth burns lol...
All of us LOVED those things.
Anyone remember Carnation Breakfast Squares? The butter pecan and vanilla were my faves.
Oh, yes. The chocolate malt was my pick.
PLEASE PUT MORE ON WE LOVE YOU
I still miss food sticks
Yes they were plastic and probably horrible for health. But I loved how they tasted.
I cant believe that they lasted that long, just awful!
The astronaut in the ads had a hole in his helmet to eat the stick through. Even us kids figured out the problem with that!
They weren’t plastic.
I really loved them. It's hard to describe what the texture was like to someone who never had them. Sort of like fudge ... ? A bit grainy? SO GOOD.
Like Tootsie Pops, but completely not chewy.
I recall we could buy boxed coffee cake and we’d eat that for a fun weekend breakfast. It was so soft and tasty and made breakfast special.
I remember Howard Johnson’s blueberry toasties. They were the best!
SSHHEEEITT! I remember Howard Johnson's PERIOD!!
Bugles was the only one that was brought back 😢 - I always preferred pizza spins!
Love Bugles to this day. As a kid, I used put them on my finger tips and pretend I had claws before gobbling them down!
Nacho cheese bugles
I remember 2 other companion snacks to Bugles back in the '60s - Daisies. shaped like a flower, & Whistles, a hollow cylindrical snack.
I have a funny story about Kudos. My mom bought a box thinking they were a good breakfast alternative like Pop Tarts, (I was a Toastette girl, such a superior crust!) anyway once we opened the new Kudos my mom realized they’re just candy bars either oats in them and told us “NO MORE!” She was a very good mother, followed nutritionally
Guidelines and was an amazing homemaker. So we quickly got over not getting Kudos even with the regular tv ads taunting us lol. As we we went from school year into the summer my mom got very sick, pneumonia of all things as we headed into June. I was in her room hanging out with her watching TV, where she eventually dozed off. I became a little bored, anyone growing up in the 80’s probably remembers all that was on network TV was Soap Operas during the day, but the idea popped in my head to quietly get a peppermint out of her nightstand, she always had hard candies in there. I quietly eased the drawer open, not wanting to wake her, as she surly would have given me a candy, she never hoarded them, I just wanted to let her rest, she was so terribly sick. As I tried opening the drawer something was blocking it from opening, you know how sometimes a brush or object can pop up once the drawer is closed. I probably should have given up, but I was determined to get the drawer open, I could slip my fingers in the drawer, and after a little fishing around I could feel what I imagined was a cardboard box, I pressed down and finally the drawer slid open, and what did I find? A box of KUDOS!!! 😅
I got so cracked up that my perfect mom 5’7” 110 pounds, looked like Barbara Eden had a snack secret. I quickly pushed the drawer closed (after finding a butterscotch) and kept her secret for weeks, until one night we all got lamenting about having a sweet tooth, we never really had much junk food in the house, if we had twinkies or Ding Dongs, they were strictly for our school lunches. Anyway, that’s when I recalled her secret stash, so I started hunting around, “I wish I would remember to buy some treats and squirrel them away so when I get a hankering for a goodie I’d have it” I kept saying silly stuff like that and looking right at her when I said it”
But darn it, she never admitted she had a secret, and I didn’t want her to think I had been snooping. I sure miss her, that pneumonia was a sign of something far worse, she actually had COPD, but it had not been detected until she had many more bouts of pneumonia as well as bronchitis. It’s inconceivable that she’s been gone 30 years, dying at 52 years old, my poor brothers were only 21 and 15. Thank God smoking has lost popularity in most regions of the United States (I’m still looking at you West Virginia and Kentucky)
And who allowed Pudding Pops to be discontinued?!?!?!
I had thought they still made Kudos. I haven't had them in so long that I just haven't looked for them to notice they weren't there anymore.
We’re gonna smoke forever. Just as many cases of lung cancer and COPD occur in non smokers as smokers.
I'm sorry about your Mom 😢. And I loved Pudding Pops!! 😋
What a sweet story about your Mom and her secret stash. 💔
@@lbjr777ONE thing's for sure; everyone who smokes eventually stops. Those who smoke heaviest, however, stop earliest.
Great Shakes!!
Thank you for bringing back to my memory the snacks I use to consume as a teenager in the '60's & '70's !
I liked Doo Dads. There was also a snack called "Twigs" it was cheese and sesame seed flavor.
I loved those!
Twigs were great!
Turn the package upside down and it said "spap oop"
I liked Twigs also.
I’m still mad that Twigs were discontinued. 😠
Danish Go-Rounds! These were spiral pastries that were strawberry or cinnamon sugar flavored, and for a while they came with 3D baseball cards too. I collected about 10 of them but I was a kid...the cards are long gone now. I have no doubt they would be worth a fortune today.
I loved those...never liked pop tarts after them...at 56, I had forgotten their name...thanks... going to look online at some pictures...😥
I'm so glad you mentioned Space Food Sticks. I was addicted to those things, so much so that my mom quit buying them thinking that I had "a problem." I understand you can still get them in the gift shop at NASA.
Yes, I loved Space Food Sticks! Individually wrapped, the peanut butter flavor was my favorite. Like you, they were addictive; easy to eat a bunch at a time!😋
Amazon has them
❤Food just tasted so much better back then. Walking into the store smelling fresh apples and filling up the grocery cart. A Sack full of penny candy and couldn't wait to get home and cook up the good stuff. Miss those days❤Charms lollipops.❤ Gone are the days fond memories remain😊loved cherry chrush soda❤
So reminescent of whenever approaching a Woolworths!!
I don’t remember a lot of these, we hardly ever had snacks in the house, except once in awhile we had Scooter Pies, does anyone remember them?
Scooter Pies, Ding Dongs, Twinkies and Zingers.
And Razzies.
I do
OMG!! When Ding Dongs first came out they were definitely the rage at my house..There were three of us & we each torn into the box to get our four for each portions & my youngest brother with the incredible sweet tooth always ran out of him before the next grocery shopping trip So my other brother & myself resorted to hiding our share. I thought that funny
Nope
I loved Space Food Sticks....if I recall correctly, I think there was a butterscotch? I used to eat them at my best friend's house.
My husband's favorite snack cake ever was the banana flip. He said he bought one every single day at lunchtime at school. Would absolutely love for those to come back.
I miss Suzy Q's, Dolly Madison Angel Cakes, Morton Frozen Donuts, cream pies, honeybuns, and t.v. dinners, and a Girl Scout cookie called Scot-Teas. Also Carnation Instant Breakfast Bars.
I was sad when GSA dropped Scot Teas, they were one of my favorite cookies. Burry was the best baker of Girl Scout cookies, now they are not worth the price you pay for them. 😂
I so miss Carnation Breakfast Bars. I ate the chocolate chip one every day for years.
@@user-mv9tt4st9k Burry's Fudge Towns were my favorite cookies, especially the "Funella" flavor. There were many summer afternoons I spend swimming in the backyard pool, followed by a pack of Fudge Towns with a glass of cold milk and a stack of comic books to read.
The Space Food Sticks were great, right? I think you are thinking of the peanut butter ones...those were my favorite too!
My family (especially me) missed the Pudding Pops the most!!
They are easy to make 2 ingredients and freeze
There used to be a snack in the 1970s called Corn Diggers, maybe made by General Mills? I absolutely loved those!
Yes, I remember them! So good with dip or plain out of the bag!
