Chocolate chip cookies in a breakfast cereal box.

If you had this **** in your pantry, either you were at grandma's house or your parents didn't give a **** about you.

Well, okay then said:

Frito pies were mentioned earlier. But they had to be served in the bag:



what kind of psychopath cuts the bag for Frito pie like this? don't think I could trust someone who did that around me.

In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.

Never seen this before but I'm interested.

Throw on some pickles, onions and hot sauce how bad can it be?

I used to eat these like crazy when I was a kid. My brother was 5 years older than me and mom went back to work so I was on my own most nights.

Yep.

That bread was gooey as ****. I remember that.

The chicken was loosely pressed chicken parts.

More often than not you'd get some gristle.

It may have been grilled by some defination of the word, but those grill marks seemed like they were painted on.

True story: back in December 2014 my wife and I were staying on the North Shore of Oahu to attend the Billabong Pipe Masters ... one evening we were at the Foodland grocery store and ahead of us in the checkout line was a guy whose purchase consisted of a large can of Beefaroni and two beers (Coors) ... his super-athletic build (kind of like Capt. America, but not quite as tall) suggested that he was one of the contestants at Pipe ... I was tempted to make a quip about his choice of cuisine being the Dinner of Champions, but common sense kicked in ... I didn't want to embarrass my wife and I really didn't want to get pummeled within an inch of my life by the surfer dude ...

My wife never gave my kids Lunchables. Full of preservatives and chemicals.

In fact when she would get angry at the kids, she threatened to give them lunchables "like the other moms"

More of a food from my 20's, but the Jack in the Box fried bean burrito was heaven on earth. Couple it with the 2 tacos for a dollar and you had some good eatin!

Some of these are funny and items that are actually gone...some of the posts make me wonder if any of y'all actually cook and/or go to the grocery store.

I bought candy cigs back in may as a gag gift
I did that in January. Bought some for my sister at the candy store in Fredericksburg that sells all the different types of fudge.

I suppose they don't still put bubble gum in baseball card packs. That stuff was inedible.
