I miss Belly Washers. They were these juice drinks but their caps were figures. I remember seeing them with a Yugioh one on a commercial.

Jakks Pacific WWE figures.

My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine.

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

Some of these old Cheestring flavours. I liked them all, but especially loved the smoky bacon flavour (the Orange one), I'd devour the whole packet.




Orbis Dinosaur magazines. These had 2 separate runs - which was pretty unique for a magazine. I had them all iirc? but I barely read them and lost all the pieces of the T-rex that you could make,

Chubby drink I remember drinking a lot as a kid and then sometimes it was out of the shelves.

Archway Cookies and Salerno cookies.. they sort of still exist but Archway used to come in a big tray with 9 each, they were huge, molasses were the best and they were much better than the knockoffs being made today. Salerno created Jingles.. they used to be almost brown in color, were crispy and tasted like anise. Today's knockoffs are shit. Salerno also made almond flavor cookies, came in a big box, each crescent was COVERED with white confectioner powder.. amazing

Happy Meals used to come with really awesome toys. Me and my siblings each had a Dukes of Hazzard car- it was like 10 inches long- we had two Chargers and one police car and loved them. Also with Happy Meals- those Animal Crackers cookies- I think these are also still made but tasted much better in the 80s

Necco Wafers- they went out of production a few years ago. A kind of mealy, flavorful sweet similar to those soft pink hearts they have on Valentines day. They had all kinds of colors and flavors and were wrapped in wax paper.

I miss the 7PM siren... if you're Gen X or older you know what this is. Probably only in America too

Kangaroo Dunkers that were actually shaped like kangaroos. I'm pretty sure they still get made but they're circles now.

I used to love those Squeeze It fruit drinks in a plastic rubber-like bottle. I think they were from Hi-C.

Oh yeah I remember those! I think they were called Dunkaroos over here. I recall getting such a sugar rush from those things as a kid! XD

I would do awful, awful things for the old stringy Webkinz. They still make them, but they lack any of that simple charm and whimsy that I fell in love with as a child. I don't think I'll ever get over it. What a fumble.

Hoops with sticks for rolling, penny whistles, and 5 cent sarsaparillas at the drugstore soda fountain.
