October 31, 20205 yr The OG cheddar Chex mix with peanuts. The new formula tastes like salt, not cheddar.

October 31, 20205 yr I don't recall ever drinking any of the Carnation Instant Breakfast servings; however, I certainly recall the ad.
October 31, 20205 yr You can still get these, which are pretty damn good.This was gonna be my submission. Well done
October 31, 20205 yr I don't know if it's because I was poor, and this type of food seemed high class to me or what, but I really think 80's tv dinners tasted better than anything that's available today. I ate about 10,000 of these in college.

October 31, 20205 yr The Big Wheel ice cream sandwich from 7-11 in the 80s. Couldn’t find a photo of the package. Two chocolate covered oatmeal cookies with vanilla ice cream. We used to crush those things in the north Texas summers. Edited October 31, 20205 yr by Whitewater Horn

They still have a cookie sandwich, Toll House I think it is, but those were better.
October 31, 20205 yr Speaking of frozen fried chicken dinners, have gotten hooked on these of late, really good when cooked in air fryer... They have a Cowboy version I've yet to try.

Which is essentially a Milky Way with almonds on top of it, like an Almond Joy versus a Mounds. I believe you are correct that what is known abroad as the Mars bar is a Milky Way here. correct - and doing a little digging, it looks like the mars almond bar is now the snickers with almonds, which makes sense because those are amazing

November 2, 20205 yr Mmmmm... some of the Mexican TV dinners had a small salsa tray AND some kind of shortbread. One may have even had a flan/warm pudding dessert.

November 3, 20205 yr My submission. They were like crack.First thing I thought of when I read the thread title. Those were my after school jam
November 3, 20205 yr My mom's "fuck it" dinner for me and my sister Haha they still make them and I bought some for my kids last night.

There’s even a Facebook group dedicated to bringing them back. The rice it came with was like crack. I did the same thing with the mixing and tortilla chips and I’d add Pace Hot all over the top.

November 5, 20205 yr Karbach Yule Shoot Your Eye Out prior to 2016. Anheuser Busch changed the recipe I assume to improve their margins, and it’s been awful ever since.
November 5, 20205 yr I’ll miss Belden’s in Meyerland. Only dedicated Kosher grocery store in Houston. They had a lot of good wines you could only find there. A lot of cool dry goods, frozen foods and meats too.
November 5, 20205 yr The Bell Beefer at Taco Bell was part of my four food groups-and in the 60's/70's, the Bell Burger made my top ten late night list.

It disappeared from the store shelves at some point. I'll have to go look. But that's good to know. Losing Emperor's Choice is the real disaster. That was the best tea I ever had. I've tried a few other ginseng teas and nothing comes close.

November 6, 20205 yr August's fried pies. United Supermarket bought the brand, but they used to be in every convenience store and gas station. Damn good pies. Best thing to ever come outa Lubbock.
November 7, 20205 yr Going in or coming out?Also, pace? Yeah I devored Pace when I was a kid. Nowadays I prefer homemade salsa but back then it was a simpler time.
