you mean pootie..........

 

Quisp, and Quake cereals. They still make Quisp and we could get it here just a couple years ago but no longer. Ben and Jerry's stopped making Wavy Gravy, then they had a contest with online voting - I stuffed the ballot box and they brought it back, but now it's gone again. I learned about B&J's "Wild Maine Blueberry" AFTER they stopped making it so I never got to try it. Arrgh! My favorite beer is a seasonal (Long Trail Hibernator) so I have to stock up in April and milk it until November. Dark Chocolate Kit Kat is awsome, but it was "Limited edition" and gone now. Bass turds.

 

That's great...never heard that one before.

Speaking of cereals does anyone remember Kellogg's "O-K's"...I think Yogi Bear was on the box...that was one of the only duds Kellogg's ever had, but another brief offering in the variety packs only was "Triple Snak". This was, IIRC, a mixture of Sugar Pops, Sugar Smacks, & peanuts in the skins...surprisingly good. I had never thought of putting peanuts on my cereal before that but now do it fairly often.

 

I used to like the bubble gum that came with each pack of baseball cards...

 

Real root beer, with actual extract from root ....... stopped because it was found that if you feed it in large quantities for long periods of time to lab rats, some will develop cancer.
As a young man who spent a lot of time in the woods, I would often dig sassafras roots and brew up a great tea. Fresh caught fish grilled over a campfire, some well boiled poke salad, big ripe dewberries and some sassafras tea make a really good meal after a day in the wild.

 

"Freakies" cereal.

 

Diet sodas with cyclamates.

 

That sounds like a disease

 

Quisp and Quake sure bring back memories!
I remember a "Zero" candy bar that was sold frozen at our local swimming pool snack bar.
and someone used to make a great peanut butter cup (not Reese's). The same company made a marshmallow cup and I hated those. The name of the company is on the fringe of my memory-I just can't seem to bring it back.

 

Did anyone ever drink coca cola back when it had cocaine in it?

 

No, but I always add a little to mine...it gives it that extra kick to help get me through the day...

If I remember correctly, it wasn't 'cocaine', per se, it was extract of coca.
What's the difference???? I have NO clue. I was never involved with chemistry!

Also, I think that the 'coca' in Coca Cola was dropped in the very early 1900s.
1912 or so.

That would be a good 'search' item.

 

Mr. Goodbar took Peanut Pattie down 5th Avenue, out behind the Power House, stuck his Butterfinger in her Cherry Hump, and out popped Baby Ruth. jd

 

Yep, I remember them from my pool snack bar also, sold frozen. They had a polar bear on the wrapper & it was white chocolate. Early 60's.
