    Nougat bars. The Summer roll was my favourite.

    Coles are selling bags of mini Summer Rolls now...amazing.

    We'd always get the meat version but man, I used to eat a ton of this as a kid. Completely forgot I did.

    There is an old thread of someone who ate 3 cans of chef boyardee plus a multi vitamin per day as a kind of meal replacement shake diet.

    My mom would boil a pork ‘cottage roll’. I loved it with mustard, and applesauce and mashed. Hard to find now. I tried to find one to make. It was an inexpensive meal.
    Also, one of my favourite lunches on a cold day was creamed salmon on toast. She’d use a can of salmon , put it in the frying pan and make a roux with milk . She’d pour it over the toast.
    How about ‘Angels on Horseback’? Toast cut into strips, layered with ketchup, bacon and grated cheese on top. Put on a cookie sheet under the broiler for a few minutes. Had them at pajama parties👩‍🍳

    That sounds mighty ambitious for pajama parties. I am laughing when I think about what we had...popcorn with M&Ms mixed in - or Doritos and dip. Pizza delivery if it was someone's birthday.

    Our slumber eats in NZ was always chips ( CC's) & dip (sauteed ground beef with Italian tomato based sauce)

    And Afghans or Aussie lemon slices 😋, which we would batch bake and pop into biscuit tins to send to our brothers and take back to the boarding house for our tuck-boxes.

    I just might make some 😗 ... Little did we know that they qualify as protein bars. No wonder we snacked on them after training.

    American brand canned foods were always ridiculously priced, so it was rarely if ever eaten by children when I was younger.

    We did opt for Watties brand canned beans though - usually for Saturday breakfasts after rowing practices. The attached is a normal post workout feed, only bacon is easily sub'd with ham or corned beef hash.

    I think this was mentioned here, hot buttered O's. You brown half a stick of butter in a pan and stir in Cheerios. Salt when crisp and enjoy! I used to eat them all the time after school.

    Another after school snack was rice crispy treats. We'd make a pan-full and divide it in half and eat with a spoon. It's amazing that I wasn't fat then!

    My mom used to make the most amazing apple crisp. It was hot and bubbly and she covered it with vanilla ice cream YUM

    Two candy bars from the 1970s that I wish would make a comeback!

    Try being raised vegan for 5 days, with Pescatarian Saturdays and chicken roast Sundays, then having to feed on the above ... It was a rough first few Saturdays. Lol. You get used to it @protein loaded plates.

    Okay I have to make these. I was deprived and never got the chance to have these as a child but they sound incredible. Especially given the fact I have a few boxes of almost expired Cheerios I won’t finish. I bet they would be great with the flavored ones I have (peanut butter, chocolate, and apple).
