List of products you miss from when you were a kid
 
As the thread states...

I was thinking about this the other day, and I miss ecto-cooler Hi-C.

I miss Creepy Crawlers, because it was awesome and also because it's sad that such a great toy would never be acceptable for today's wussy children.

Zen - you can still get Quisp in very limited areas or by buying online:

www.quisp.com

I buy it online once or twice a year. $5 a box, plus shipping, well worth it, imo. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

They still sell these; all of the local grocery stores in my area stock all 3 cereals (Boo-Berry, Franken-Berry, and the Count) around Halloween time.

This is the first thing that came to mind when I read the title of this thread. I tried to explain this product to my wife a few weeks ago, and she was pretty sure I was making it up.

Appears so. All the other underoos pics showed young boys wearing them. That would have been a little to pedo, even for OOT.

Yes, but as a 40 year old man, I doubt I would enjoy Fluff as much as when I was a child [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Wouldn't that fall under a different list then?

Also, to the guy who misses Count Chocula, have you been to a grocery store since you were a child?

Matchbox/Hot Wheels tracks. Not this super fancy dinosaur raptor firehouse octopus water pool thing, but the plain old orange tracks with connectors so you could build your own track however you wanted to race your cars...

In the last 10 years, I've seen that cereal in the grocery store not more than half a dozen times. Yes, it's sometimes out during Halloween, but it used to be there all the time.

Hmm, maybe it's more of a regional thing now. I would see it all the time in MN, but now that I think of it I don't know if I've seen it since I've moved to DC this year.

I've seen it on and off at odd times in L.A., and some supermarkets in the same area would have it while others wouldn't.

These were playing cards from Topps that were just really gross and violent. My dad bought them for me when I was around 10, so early 90s. There's no mystery why these things aren't around anymore.
