    Awesome foods you remember as a kid

    Some of us at my job were talking about weird foods (actual products not made up stuff). We used to have an outlet store where unknown products would go to die, among the ones I remember fondly are : Gelooze, which was like jello in a squeezit bottle, and cookies that were like oreos with poprocks in the filling.

      "Thought I said weird, but I guess not. Oh well."

      You did but I personally didn't really eat anything weird as a kid (I was and still am a picky eater) so I just picked out some things from my childhood.

      The weirdest thing that I did eat was cook biscuits until they were crispy on the outside but still raw dough on the inside. I loved that growing up.

      I live in Canada, they sell dunkaroos at Walmart. My fiancée buys them, he's like a 6 year old. I can't get over eating icing and cookies as a snack, but they were my favourite school snack when I was in grade school!

      Hi-C Ecto Cooler. I don't know if it's still around, but I know it was a few years ago.

      Jumpin' Jack Doritos

      Snak Pak Butterscotch Puddings

      Easy Cheese (still sold today). It's a cheese product that comes in an aerosol can. If that isn't weird, I don't know what is. Definitely not fit for human consumption.
