Favorite snacks from childhood

Recommended Posts

Ants on a log... celery sticks, peanut butter and raisins

 

Ritz crackers

 

Nutella ( yuck!!)

 

Wagon Wheels

 

Milano cookies

 

Tang

 

Lots of fruit and vegetables.

 

Back then portion sizes were much smaller so I don't particularily remember eating a lot of snacks and we only had soda on special ocassions like someone's birthday. Or going to McDonald's was a big deal with your family or those horrible birthday parties they had there.lol.

Dunkaroos! I still like to buy myself a little carton of them whenever they're on sale. Otherwise, I had (and still have) more of a salt tooth than a sweet tooth, so chips were my go to snack, especially ketchup.

I love double-salted licorice - you can still get it at the Bulk Barn.

 

You can buy the wonderful salty dutch licorice at Sugar Mountain :)

 

 

I can't! If I buy it I eat the whole bag and give myself a stomach ache..

I did and still love peanut butter with apples at least 2 and bananas.

I eat it everyday, one or the other or both.

There were always home made chocolate chip cookies, lemon pie, cupcakes and other home baked goods in my house when I was a kid so I developed a sweet tooth. Home made chocolate chip cookies are still my FAVE!

The trouble with sugar mountain, is that you always can end up putting "a little bit more" in your bag. :-) I usually go there to get few "big league chew" bubble gum pouches, and, well, blow bubbles.

There's nothing like a home made chocolate chip cookies, lemon pie, cupcakes and shortbread cookies. I make them all the time!!

 

Is this thread making anybody else hungry??? It is for me.. Food is good and I love it whether it be "healthy" or not.

As a little boy growing up in the States my favorite cookies were the "Chips Ahoy" and on the back of the package were comic strips of a super hero named Cookie Man! Favorite drink with that was "YooHoo" chocolate drink! We moved back here in my teens and when I went back as an adult and bought my favorite drink for a walk down memory lane I found it disgusting! Some memories are better left alone.

 

My other favorites as a teen were Kraft peanute butter on Ritz crackers (I still have that today). Home made chocolate cake with no icing fresh out of the oven and Fudgeo cookies.

 

The strange one in my family was my sister who loved mustard on toast or a peanut butter and mustard sandwich!

Ok it's official now between Meg's wonderful bum pics and Sin Cindy's all over gorgeous and delicious bod, the common denominator is CHEEZ WHIZ, I'm buying stock in kraft foods for sure!

 

I just remembers another snack, more of a comfort food, but I really enjoyed salmon salad sandwiches with butter on white bread, with gerkin pickles and tea at grandmas in the TV room watching the bugs bunny road runner hour on Global on Saturday evenings at 5pm.

Like many of the other posts, cheeze whiz with crackes. My grandmother also used to make these "Monster cookies" They were oatmeal cookies with chocolate chips, smarties and wanuts.

 

I've also got a fond memory of Thnder Crunch chips..parmesan and garilc.

Ok, CK you can buy shares in Kraft. Me I'm buying a case of Cheese Whiz and inviting Meg and Cindy to a party. Hehe.

 

Actually my favs are like others and more Candy than snacks.

 

- Tasty Brand Sunflower Seeds (hard to find these days)

- Popeye Cigarettes (careful of the red lit end)

- Sponge Toffee

- Cracker Jacks but with more peanuts in the box

- Cotton Candy always

It made me sad when candy smokes had to take the red tip off. I remember feeling like such a rebel with my sugary cigarette pretending it was real.
