Food From Years Ago

They never tell you what you need to know.
I’m alone a lot (at home) so that means dinner for one. The other day I was rolling through the grocery store and spotted Stouffers French Bread pizza. I probably haven’t had one of those since college.
Last night instead of eating the healthy grilled chicken i was supposed to, I popped open the Stouffers box and had 2 of those for a late night dinner. Hey it was only 40 grams of fat!!!! It wasn’t very good but that nostalgic feeling made it taste a little better. The bad part is 14 hours later I am still farting every 5 minutes and the roof of my mouth is still burnt.
I think I won’t be buying those again.
Any foods oh remember from yester-year that you haven’t had forever?

Ice cream is a great example. There is only one brand (at least locally) that still sells some options that don't include gum additives.
Remember when soda and many dry goods were made with sugar instead of corn syrup? Remember when cookies and other baked goods were made with butter instead of oil?
Fortunately my wife is a fantastic cook and I am not horrible myself, so I don't miss out on many of my old favorites and she cooks them (or bakes as the case may be) the old fashioned way. But the race to the bottom, which has been going on for 30+ years now, has made most freezer and other prepared supermarket foods almost inedible.
I also miss the original Hostess snacks and cereals taste different now compared to when I was a kid
There was a breakfast snack called Danish Go Rounds - that you popped in the toaster. They were excellent. Lots of sugar and cinnamon. I preferred them to pop tarts.
I’m fortunate to have a great pizza shop that I can walk to - so I don’t do the frozen thing anymore.
Ring dings were good. Funny Bones were great.
Today’s cookies don’t taste the same - which is sad. Too many mass produced substitutions - to lower costs - and kill us quicker!
i miss the old skool monster cereals the most, the ones out now just dont taste the same
If its any food, my grandma's cooking. Anything she made was amazing. Ive never had basic shit like rice or beans like her's. Same with enchilada sauce, never had any that tastes just like her's. Even my mom cant make it the same.
