How many of y'all used to eat and drink this stuff?


Frank 'n Stuff was a hot dog stuffed with either cheese or chili and sold in the United States from mid-1986 until the 1990s by Hormel.[2][3][4][5] Frank 'n Stuff used Hormel's branded line of chili [6] and was one the company's six major product introductions between 1986 and 1987.[7] At the time, the company described the product as "the fun food that features a tunnel of cheese or chili inside a Hormel hot dog".[8] Frank 'n Stuff's eponymous mascot was a friendly Frankenstein type of character[2] and Hormel ran frequent television and print advertisements featuring him.[9][10] In 1986, during labor unrest at a production plant, razor blades were found in two packages of the product,[11] but there was no recall.


Goober is a combination of peanut butter and jelly in a single jar.
It is sold in North America and Singapore and is named after a North American name for the peanut, which comes from the Gullah word for peanut, guber. Goober was introduced by The J.M. Smucker Company under the Smucker's brand. It consists of alternating vertical stripes of peanut butter and either grape or strawberry flavored jelly, or chocolate.
A similar product is sold by Kroger under their name, the Ralphs brand name and as Yipes! Stripes! under Kroger's Disney Magic Selections label.


Crystal Pepsi was a caffeine-free soft drink made by PepsiCo from 1992 to 1993 in Canada and the United States, and for a short time in Australia. Crystal Pepsi was sold for a longer time in Europe.


Cheez BallsDoodles and puffs can't compare to the neon orange balls. Easily tossed back, and with a delicious artificial cheesiness that would've made Taylor Swift envious, Cheez Balls left a permanent stain on our fingers, and our hearts.


Dunk-a-Roos is a snack food from Betty Crocker, first launched in 1988. It consists of a snack-sized package containing cookies and icing; the cookies are meant to be dunked into the icing before eating. Individual snack packages contain about ten small cookies and one cubic inch of icing. The cookies can take a variety of shapes, including round with a raised "D" in the centre. Other cookie shapes are a little more difficult to decipher, one seems to feature mascot Duncan riding a bike and other on possibly some sort of air craft.
The product's mascot is a cartoon kangaroo. The original mascot was Sydney, who wore a hat, vest, and tie and spoke with an Australian accent, voiced by John Cameron Mitchell. At the height of their popularity in 1996, a contest known as "Dunk-a-Roos Kangaroo Kanga-Who Search" was held, resulting in the new mascot: Duncan, the dunkin' daredevil.


Zima is a clear, lightly carbonated, alcoholic beverage, that is made and distributed by the Coors Brewing Company, ultimately MillerCoors. Introduced in 1993, it was marketed not as a beer, but as an alternative to beer, an early example of what is now often referred to as alcopop. Its domestic production ceased in October 2008, but it is still marketed in Japan.


WWF Superstars of Wrestling Ice Cream BarsWhen the ice cream man rolled through the neighborhood, this was the go-to, an ice cream novelty that choke-slammed Drumsticks. Why put an ice cream sandwich on a stick? Because it was more hardcore. It was so hardcore, it had a wrestler's face stamped into, like a coin. Wrestlers were the currency of cool in 5th grade.
 
I remember all except the wrestling ice cream and franks. I think they still make that Goober concept though, maybe changed the name.

I think the thing that gets me is when companies change the recipes all together. The whopper used to be a good burger, now it's microwaved and tastes nothing like it did when I was a kid, it used to be flame broiled. & Dominos and the McDonald's quarter pounder was actually really good, now the companies exchanged the ingredients for cheaper recipes. Corporate bastards can fuck up some memories.
 
Zima = Smirnoff Ice = Bacardi Silver. No drunk person (who actually likes sweet malt beverages) can tell the difference.

Smucker's still sells Goober - I saw some on the store shelf the other day.

Freshen Up is a chewing gum with flavored gels inside manufactured by Adams in Brasil. Current flavours include cinnamon, peppermint, spearmint and bubble gum and a fruit variation was offered in the 1970's.


Jiffy Pop is a popcorn brand of ConAgra Foods. The product combines popcorn kernels, oil and flavoring agents with a heavy-gauge aluminum foil pan and expandable, light-gauge aluminum foil cover. As the pan is heated, the popping corn causes the cover foil to unfold and puff up. "Jiffy" in the name alludes to the short cooking time.


Tang is a fruit-flavored drink. Originally formulated by General Foods Corporation food scientist William A. Mitchell[1] in 1957, it was first marketed in powdered form in 1959.[2]

Sales of Tang were poor until NASA used it on John Glenn's Mercury flight,[3] and subsequent Gemini missions.

Since then, it was closely associated with the U.S. manned spaceflight program, leading to the misconception that Tang was invented for the space program. The Tang brand is currently owned by Mondelēz International.
 
I admit that when I was a kid goober grape and cheese balls both were my shit. I tried that zima once in LA when it first came out and was like WTF is THIS???!!! Was so horrible I refused to speak to anyone who was drinking it :lol: :smh: I do not remember the others but I sorely miss my favourite childhood junk ceral Golden Grahams and as healthy as I am now if I found a box of it I would tear it up :)

They still make jiffy pop. I just had some a few months ago as I do not do microwave. Is just not that easy to find but its around :)

THIS in a nutshell, Burger King's claim to fame WAS the fact that their burgers were flame-broiled, even McDonald's has lost flavor with this whole microwave BS, the true flavor[/I} of a burger is in its juices, nuked burgers HAVE NO JUICES!!!:angry:
 
why are people saying they nuke mcdonalds and burger king burgers?

surely that can't be true, right? i never go in anymore, just drive thru when i DO get that bs (not mcdonald's) but i know it's still lil niggas and grown niggas with no skills droppin them shit on a grill.

right?
Zima was the drink of gays. It stood for "Zomething's in my ass."
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Champale is a brand of Malt liquor, brewed with yeasts more commonly used in wine fermentation,[1] to produce a beer resembling sparkling wines in taste. Champale was one of the first alcoholic drinks to target the African American market in its advertising contributing to malt liquor's current popularity within the United States.


Chewels is a defunct brand of chewing gum. It was the first gum that had a liquid center that oozed out when chewed. It was similar to the later gum called "Freshen Up".
