    Rice Krispy Treats Cereal, Surge (more or less my pre-teen/teenage years), Squeezits

    I won a Surge alarm clock when I was a kid, for the alarm part, it would have an angry sounding guys voice yelling SURGE over and over.

    Wax bottles....drink the sugary syrup inside them, then chew on the wax for the rest of the day and wait for the onset of diabetes.

    LMAO!! This made me laugh so hard! I loved those!

    I remember Fudge Bubblegum. Maybe Bazooka or Hubba Bubba, can't remember who made it. It was very weird, very artificial like chocolate covered donuts in the mini 6 package. (LOVE those!!!)

    I guess that is very good you didn't try it, and also very sad that you didn't try it either

    good because if you never experienced the awesomeness which would have led you to a big depression when they took it out of the U.S
    but at the same time, sad that you didn't get to experience it, I have to admit though, I got pretty hefty because I would have downed that stuff in minutes back when I was a kid .
