Who made this video? Not someone from the 80s.
Agreed.
100%
Absolutely right
some moron, that's for sure. Typical for YT
Totally Agree
I like Sloppy Joe's. I make them several times a year.
Same. But the ones I remember from school lunches were indeed gross.
I really like Sloppy Joe's. This guy doesn't know what he's talking about.
@@angelsinger4574 They weren't too bad at my school.
We Must Have had a special lunch lady her sloppy joes and pizza were amazing! 😂
I was born in 1980, I don't remember sloppy Joe's ever being thought of as bland or mediocre. Also I don't remember any Adam Sandler movies in the 80s either 😂. This video is pretty dumb
I feel this video was made by someone who A) was not alive during the 80's, AND B) has never spoken with someone who was alive during the 80's.
C) Never tasted the foods himself.
We had Sloppy Joes aka Mandwiches on Friday nights...Yum
I was alive in the 1980's
@@pinkbobbie1 Congratulations. Many of us were.
Manwich Modays
"...nobody wants back"
Um, I still buy Bagel Bites & Lean Cuisine...and Manwich/sloppy joes...
I love Steak-umm! It's still a favorite sandwich with Munster cheese on soft rye.
@@EndlessSurprisesSD I also almost always buy Steam-Umms. Yeah, they're kind of tasteless alone, but you don't get a steak at a restaurant unseasoned, so why would you judge them based on that?
I just made some sloppy joes. If you go to the dollar twenty-five tree, the stuff is cheap, and tasty, so why not?
Me too
Bagel Bites--STILL HERE. Steak Umm, here.....Chef Boyardee--HERE ......and I believe I saw Jello Pops come back too. Manwich--always.
He claims Ayds should have been more aware about their name sounding the same as AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). He is ignoring the fact AYDS registered their trademark in 1946 - decades before the AIDS epidemic.
This is true. But the creator of Ayds was also very insensitive. For a long time, he refused to change the name of the candy, saying the candy was there first, and people should and would know the difference. He showed a terrible lack of sympathy to those who were affected by the disease. Sadly, not uncommon, at that time.
It wasn't a good product. People need to diet. With real food not artificial
agree with you there - just saying his comment that the company was not insensitive when selecting the name ignored the AIDS epidemic was way off base given the timeline
AIDS replaced the term GRID in 1982-1983.
I remember the cynical chuckles at the time from me and my friends when the TV commercials would come on because of the name, but yeah: the name came way before the disease did. Ayds had problems before the disease put the nails in its coffin - it just didn't seem like it had any traction with its target audience (baby-boomer mothers trying to lose weight after they started having kids, in an era when the candy would have been competing with "mother's little helper", amphetamine weight-loss drugs, in one form or another....)
This has to be rage bait. Almost every item on here is a Gen X favorite.
lol, I have never heard of rage bait! But it fits.
And quite a few are still around. WTF!?
Agree, this is a terrible list. Carnations breakfast bars, pudding pops, steak umms, Dr. Pepper gum, Manwich were all awesome.
You want something gross? Try Micro Magic milkshakes - those were gross.
"I don't want an oreo cookie the size of a hamburger." -Said no one ever.
Agreed! Jumbo Oreos are always welcome on top of ice cream sundaes and banana splits.
Truth!
A lot of people break the cookie apart anyway, or dunk it in milk. A cookie the size of a hamburger gives you more chocolate Oreo cookie. That is the best part. :)
@@thecajunphoenix ohh, never thought of that. put some ice-cream in-between the cookie, or on top. 😋😋
I wouldn't want an Oreo cookie the size of a hamburger, I've never liked Oreos, never understood why they are so popular.
Sloppy Joes? What was wrong with that?
They were gross!
My mom tried once in the 70s to serve them to us, and after one bite, I would not eat it!!
@@deboraholsen2504 Wow -- they were and are great stuff!
@@deboraholsen2504 Your mom clearly couldn't cook.
I hate BBQ sauce - way too sweet for me - that's the first thing wrong. However, I don't remember ever having eaten one, but I'm sure it could be acceptable if the recipe were tweaked. It should have chilies in it and no sugar, molasses, or anything sweet, except for grilled onions.
@@larsedik Sloppy Joes aren't normally made with BBQ sauce, but a simple tomato sauce. We always made the sauce with 1 can of tomato soup and 1 can of cream of celery, 1/2 stick of butter and then some Italian spices added to it.
Jello Pudding Pops is another thing I could eat the whole box of in one sitting. They were awesome! Never should have been discontinued!
Miss those
I know I am in the minority, but I liked the Swiss Miss Pudding Bars better.
I so agree
Oh, pudding pops (any brand!) were divine! Frozen pudding on a stick! What’s not to be divine? I used to call them pudding freezes and I once ate half a box in one go!
I'm sure that there's a copycat recipe for jello pudding pops online.
Yet, I still see Manwich (Sloppy Joes), Steak Ums, Lean Cuisine, Bagel Bites, and Chef Boyardi everywhere.
Had Chef Boyardi ravioli couple days ago. Some romano cheese and french bread. I thought it was good for a quick meal and it wasn't expensive. As to Steak Ums those are great. Especially off the grill. Peppers mushrooms, onions and cheese. I found them fantastic actually. Really, this video is a fail.
I know right!!
@@michaelweston1042 love Chef Boyardee...hated Spaghetti O's
@@liaml69 $1 a can. I mean come on. No preservatives. It's decent stuff.
Where can i get Steak-umms? I love umm. Lol. But seriously...
It is painfully clear that whoever put this together wasn’t around experience a lot of the stuff at the time. For example, the high see Ghostbusters drink holds a very special place in kids hearts from that time. We love those things. They were a huge seller and very popular.were big stuff cookies, also a huge thing at the time. I’m just saying it does not seem that whoever put this together actually experienced any of the stuff because there’s no nostalgia there. Fax true not always accurate however.
Ecto cooler was awesome.
I hated most of these tbh. 😢
Agreed!!!!
I like everything here. And so did my close friends during the day.
Except for New Coke and Sizzzlean the foods on this list were not the worst.
Class of 1987. Most of these examples do not line up with my own experiences. The chocolate chip Carnation Breakfast Bar was awesome and something both my brother and I remember fondly and miss often. The sloppy joe's, tacos and cornbread, and big burrito, were the three top school lunches we loved and I remember my friends loving too. A lot of what is in this video just doesn't resonate with me personally.
Agree.Class of 84 here.
Class of '87 here, too.
I thought carnation instant breakfast bars were fantastic!
My family used to use them as trail foods during hikes. They were part of some of the best memories of my youth.
Class of 82 and I agree with you.
The carnation breakfast bar came out in the late 1970's when I was in highschool (class of 1977). I especially like the peanut butter bar. I remember I use to have one in the morning before leaving for school. Even when I went into the navy in 1983 they were still on the market. This is the food they should bring back.
Errr…as an elder millennial, I’m respectfully calling bulls**t here. I think most of these foods are actually ones people either a) still love today, or b) desperately miss & wish would come back again. And how THE HAIL can pudding pops be on here?? Pretty sure they’re a universally-beloved childhood snack, and we’d all sell our souls to have them back again?!😭
Yes! Bring back pudding pops!
19:02
The only bad thing about pudding pops is their spokesperson. Everything else is awesome.
I do not recall most, but pudding pops were great.
I actually don’t know anyone, who was a kid back then, who didn’t love them.
And I thought bagel bites was a '90s thing and crystal Pepsi too
I'm the class of 1977 and I know for a fact that the carnation breakfast bar came out in the late 1970's. I especially like the peanut butter bar. That's a food they definitely should bring back. That breakfast bar was alot better than the granola bar.
Thank you!! Mine was the Chocolate with the krispy center...ate them every morning before elementary school .....Class of 1984
It is so stupid to criticize Ayds Reducing Candy for having a similar sounding name as the disease!
Ayds was invented and marketed for many years before the AIDS epidemic! So to label it “poor branding “ is lazy and irresponsible!
Also, AIDS wasn't even the first name for the disease. It started out being called GRID. And yes, THAT name is well retired, but there was no reason for anyone to expect the new name to stick, either.
SlimAyds is an impovement over the original name, although Slimsweet is an even better name.
As for AIDS being called GRID, with rare exception such as the Danish woman who died of AIDS in 1977, it was because gay men and IV drug users were the unfortunate first reported cases of the disease.
Big stuff cookie TOO BIG Yeah right, I am 66 years old and never heard a child say that's too much cookie.Announcer must be hitting the crack pipe!! Do you see how video media makes people THINK it is right.
Obviously, this guy was not even around to try these things. And many of them have stood the test of time. He's probably some millennial or gen Zer who doesn't like anything unless it's a bag of kale.
lol
💯
Millennial here, I LOVE SLOPPY JOES. Economical AND FUCKING GOOD! ESPECIALLY WITH CRINKLE FRIES!
No he's probably not American,
don't disrespect kale, I grow several kinds in my garden. he just has crappy taste
I loved the Carnation breakfast bars!
Me too! Those should be brought back.
Loved the breakfast bars!!!!
I did too
Yaaaassss and Figurines, Alba Shake Mix!,😉
I loved the Carnation Instant Breakfast Bar, I used to have one with a coffee on my way to work.
I fucking love Manwhiches, thank you.
Edit: Who thinks this is just a personal list of what this person doesn't like?
He just wanted to make a vid clip.😂
Some of these were really good Sloppy Joe's might have been messy
but they were delicious and they still are today 😋 🥤🍔🍟🥤😋
Oh, Pudding Pops were good.
I wish they would bring those back. They were really good.
Most definitely
@@shannondoresame
I loved Pudding Pops!
@@JaimeMesChiens Yay! I hope they bring them back.
Let's play a drinking game. Watch this video again and take a sip every time the announcer says the word "lackluster,"
Do you want to die of alcohol poisoning?? 😂
Drink every time you disagree with him about the products being the Worst that No One Wants Back. 🍺🍷🍸🍹🥃
Did you live this era? This was all great to a person born in the 70’s that lived all the 80’s!
I was born in the late 60's, this video takes me back.
I DISAGREE with this list..
McDLT was awesome back in the 80s. I still wish the burger itself is still around minus the packaging of course.... Chef Boyardee.. LOVE them.. I remember as a kid in the 70s and 80s the box packaging as well. Pudding Pops are GOOD. Manwich Bold is my favourite today... Steakummm tends to be a hit/miss as I do remember the excess amount of oil that comes out of that.
100% agreed and I always thought Ecto-cooler was one of Hi-C's best flavors!
Everything you showed in this video was some of my favorites. You on crack bro?
DITTO! 😒
Whoever made this video has no idea about the 80s
Or life for that matter.
Not only are sloppy joes delicious, they are also still commonplace.
Oh, but they were TOO delicious! That's why everyone hated them! 🙄
Irony: i watched this while eat a Lean Cuisine Enchilada frozen meal. One of my favorites. Lean Cuisine is still very popular and my local supermarkets carry the full line. If they weren't desired by consumers, they wouldn't have so much freezer space devoted to them.
Well, I"m glad to see I'm not the only one who felt like some of these foods were unfairly vilified. I used to LOVE making Steak-Umm sandwiches, I thought the Bubblegum sodas were delicious and I absolutely LOVED Carnation Instant Breakfast Bars! I actually wish they'd make a comeback, I was so disappointed when they stopped making them!
Pudding Pops were fire!
Most of the students I knew loved Sloppy Joes. Ecto Coolers tasted great, Steak-umm is still sold all over the U.S.. Your video title makes it seem like you're listing things that are gone, but then you mention things that still exist and are quite popular. You really think people buy Steak-umm for its convenience and they don't actually enjoy it? Then you bring up Bagel Bites and talk about how popular they still are, but say they have critics. EVERY food product has some people who don't like it. Also, some of these didn't start in the 80s.
"Let's make a video of 80's era products and misrepresent everyone of them... except New Coke. That's low hanging fruit. We know that one sucked."
As a wise man once said, "Opinions are like a-holes, everybody has them!" This writer's opinions are no more valid than anyone's and often wrong. Many of these items are still with us, and well liked.
Bubblegum flavored softdrink? Basically that's Tab. Yuck. 😝
the smell is nostalgic in my nose, i can smell it now.
I always say, "Opinions are like a-holes: everybody has one, and most of them stink!" 😉😂
I might be one of the very few who actually still likes tab soda pop. I forgot where I found it but it was on a soda fountain at a restaurant I went to many moons ago. I’m really old according to my kids. 😂😂😂 11:31
My Aunt Pat used to drink Tab, which I never hated, but there are so many tastier zero-sugar sodas out there now.
My grandma drank it, It tasted bitter to me.
The Ayds candy was around way before the Aids epidemic.
Aids is why Ayds isn't around anymore.
The dumbest thing about the McDLT was keeping the cheese on the cold side.
True, but I did like them
What cheese...mrrphh...damn, no WONDER i never had cheese. I always ate it first on the way home in the car. I still try to pick the cheese off the burger before it melts onto the patty.
Love sloppy joes, loved pudding pops. Funny how pudding pops was also featured in your video about snacks from the 1980s that we want back. Make up your mind, makes it hard to take your videos seriously but they do bring back memories.
😂😂😂😂👍👍
We'd have sloppy joes for dinner at home, and I love them. Hard to eat like a burger, we'd use a knife and fork when necessary, and they were good and very flavorful.
@@dragoncubes1074 I still do from time to time. I would always put Lay's potato chips on mine, and have a dill pickle with it.
Hmi noticed the SAME thing between the two 70's videos! Several were both wanted back AND never wanted back!😂
Hold on I disagree with the DLT I wish they would bring that back cuz it was so good
Yeah, it was one of my favorites too. They replaced it with the McLean, but that was nowhere as good.
The _"complicated packaging"_ really turned me off.
Several of these are still around. Sloppy Joes, Lean Cuisine, Chef Boyardee, etc... Chef Boyardee is still a fav among kids.
As for those Carnation Breakfast bars. I remember those from the 70s when I was expected by the nurses at the senior high I went to, to try and gain weight.
At 67, I still eat a lot of Chef Boy Ardee canned stuff, often right out of the can. Love that stuff! 👍
I never cared for Lean Cuisine. Just too little per meal and not a great taste. 😮
I kind of liked Bagel Bites. An okay snack item.😊
I still eat Bagel Bites every once in a while.
I loved the Carnation breakfast bars!
I remember loving chef boy ardee. Also we ate a lot of sizzalean and steak ems (I think that how it was spelled) I don't really remember the boil bags persay, but when they were talking about them the cardboard tray with several slices of meat looked familiar, back then we didn't have a lot of money, even though it was just my mom, me n my brother most of the time, we lived on a thin budget, and occasionally we would have extended family members living with us because that just what my mom did, she helped when it was needed even though we didn't have much extra to give. These meals kept us alive, and I don't know if my mom did something extra to make them better, or we just didn't know anything of higher class, but it tasted just fine.
Heck even my grandkids now like chef boy ardee
Agreed. Where would our childhoods have been without Chef Boyardee?
I liked McDLT, ehh skip the cheese. A better package would have appeased the greenies and left crisp lettuce and cool tomatoes.
McDLT was basically a good idea, just needed a bit of adjustment and development.
Yeah, it definitely didn't have to be styrofoam: cardboard would do.
I liked it quite a bit.
@@drea4195 I havent had an unsmashed fast food burger since the 80s...
I thought the McDLT was one of the freshest tasting McD burgers ever. I wish they could have come up with a styrofoam-like insulating material that would make it through a single use as a container and then just biodegrade -- like the packing peanuts made out of cornstarch. But hey, I guess flipping the cold half of the sandwich onto the hot side was too much work.
@@lancerevell5979 It was a 1/4 pounder with mayo, tomato and lettuce added to it. I think you can have them make it still. Just don't ask for a McDLT.
These people have got a lot of these products so wrong. Most were very popular, and some are still around and popular.
Ecto Cooler was very good. It had an awesome citrus flavor. They even brought back as a special limited edition for the original movies' 20th anniversary.
Sloppy Joe's have been and still are popular, I make 'Manwich' regularly.
Pudding Pops were so good, I loved the chocolate.
Steak-umm, Lean Cuisine, Bagel Bits, and Chef Boyarde are all still around and sold in every grocery store and still are popular products. You can't call something failed if it's still profitable and wanted.
They just make this shytte up. No need to be factual. But do they think their viewers are idiots? NOBODY seems to like this list or agree with the choice of products.
Bet you didn’t know that Chef Boy Ar Dee was a real person, not just an advertising company’s fantasy. Hector Boiardi. He was a real chef who emigrated from Italy as a teen and catered Woodrow Wilson’s wedding.
I knew that. Thanks for posting it for those who don’t! 👍🏻
I knew all that except for the part of him catering Woodrow Wilson's wedding...
Nor did I.
Sloppy Joes were much better than the school’s horrible pizza . It was one of the more popular school lunches.
My school had the best pizza. I loved it.
I wasn't a fan of the sloppy Joe sandwiches that were served in school, my mom's homemade sloppy Joe sandwiches were delicious and I still make them on a regular basis.
I remember the pizza being so bad that kids would put ketchup on it just to get it down.
My school had great pizza..
@@justmejenny7986 Same here. I would love to have a couple of my old school pizzas. None I've eaten since compare.
Steakumm has been around since 1969...
Sloppy Joes go way back earlier than the 80s. We had them in the 60s and they were considered old then.
Ecto cooler (now called something else) is still amazing!! I could not disagree more
SAME!!!
It was amazing. Why wouldn't anyone want it back?
I fondly remember the Carnation Breakfast Bars! They were the dessert that my Mom put into my school lunches when I was in high school. Being quite skinny at the time, it was thought that the bars would help me gain weight. My metabolism thwarted that, but my low blood sugar was better regulated. They also came in handy when I was a busy college student.
I also have nostalgia for Chef Boyardi Mini Ravioli. That product actually came out in the 1970s. I had those for lunch or supper when I was growing up. I still occasionally have a can of Mini Ravioli just for nostalgia's sake.
I still eat Manwich sloppy joe's to this day. With a side of Lay's potato chips it's a great meal when you need something quick. Same goes for Steak-umm , with fried onions and cheese and a side of fries , it's another great meal when your short on time. My daughter loves Bagel Bites as a late night snack or a snack after school.
potatoe
80s kid here, not sure if this video was done in satire or not, most on this list was all bangin' when I was growing up.
My mom said her and my uncle use to steal their aunt’s caramel flavored Ayds diet candy they both claimed the caramel flavor was buttery and yummy! It had to be before the 80’s
Yeah, I used to eat my mom's Ayds candies.
I loved Carnation Breakfast Bars. I had one every morning for breakfast with a cup of coffee. I wish they would come back. I liked the Chocolate Chip ones.
At 6:03 ..the only complaint I have about the McDLT is that the cheese should have been on the hot side...melted cheese on a burger is what is expected, not a cold slice!
Steakumms are awesome! Of course you're not gonna eat them plain. I make cheese steaks with them all the time. My kids would love them. Cheese, onion, and mushrooms with a little mayo...mmmmm
A-1 for the win. No cheese.
I have never heard of Steak'ums as being easy-to-make steak before now. I only heard of them as being a shortcut for making Philly steak and cheese at home.
Crystal Pepsi in the 80's - "I am the very 1st crystal clear soda... EVER!"
7UP & Sprite - "Are we a joke too you?!"
It really was the 1st "clear cola"! 😊
Crystal Pepsi came out in the early 1990's.
I think it was part of a short-lived fad to not had artificial coloring in food.
Not only can you still find bagel bites in the freezer section at grocery stores to this day, they're fine for dinner if a person doesn't have the time to spend hours making dinner. Heck, there's a similar product that's basically microwavable mini hot dogs.
Why just dinner? Its on a bagel you can have it any time!
Wish they still had the cheeseburger ones. Those were my favorite. 😋
Here we go! Another one of my favorites I wish they would bring back. Steak 'ums! I'd make and eat a whole box in one sitting as a kid! My mom only bought them for me since I was the only one in the family that liked them. But then again I also loved Crystal Pepsi. Wish they would bring that back as well.
still available
Steak ums were so simple to make and you could use them in different recipes like an steak omelette. I dont understand why the OP thinks steak ums were unappealing.
They still carry them in some places possibly under a different brand
I have a box of Steak-Ums in my freezer right now.
@@robadams5799 I do too, it's not like they are hard to find.
The only thing I hate about the Oreo Big Stuf is not able to dunk it in milk.
Sure you could, just use a bucket instead of a glass 😄
So I had to break it. Big deal. It was a lot more cookie and filling. Win/win.
Use a mug. It's much easier. SUPERB for Oreo milkshakes!
Just broke it in half. It was perfect sized to dunk.
Eh, it’s really no different from the Little Debbie Big Pack items (or their jumbo double layer Fudge Rounds and Oatmeal Crème Pies) that you can get at grocery stores today
Anyone remember the Banquet cream 😋 🥧 pies ?
OMG yes. The chocolate one.
I can go for one now. You're bringing back another lost memory.
New Coke was genius. That is how they changed Coca cola over to high fructose corn syrup. Coke classic no longer used sugar, but used high fructose corn syrup. People were so glad to have real Coke back, they did not care that the syrup changed the taste. Go get a Mexican Coke and taste the difference.
Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks.
EXACTLY!!! Thought I was the only one who noticed that!
Doesn't everybody know that? 🤷♂
@@mikeweber3685 I did suspect that there was something fishy going on with marketing, but I had never heard about the change up with the actual original formula.
Coke had already switched to the corn syrup before that.
The McDLT was one of the best burgers, ever. I remember. I was there.
Nothing like a McDLT, this guy is crazy .
I actually liked a lot of these
I loved the boiling bags. Especially the chicken Ala king. My mom made them a lot in the 80s
Same!
Boiling bags go way back. You could get a home boiling bag machine for your home cooking in the 70s.
I liked the frozen birds eye broccoli and cheese.
cThere was a boil-in-bag with peas and pearl onions in a creamy sauce that was divine. And I use these bags for lasagna--if done correctly, you can heat frozen lasagna so it tastes fresh, not reheated at all.
My elders served those for the holidays. I liked the broccoli and cheese the best.
I loved Carnation Breakfast Bars. Although many of today's "meal bars" and snack bars are an improvement, I wouldn't mind having these again.
You weren't around that time huh? The first one is already a bold faced lie! Every kid I remember was always excited for Sloppy Joes.
All these products were either universally loved, or still around today, or both. So what relevance does this list have?
Pudding Pops are a food that I genuinely miss and wish was still around today.
My dad worked for General Mills from 1972 to 2006. He would tell me that many of the food items they discontinued sold very well. It was production costs and inability to get certain ingredients that caused them to be discontinued. Also, there were restrictions by the government on using certain ingredients that they feared were harmful. I agree some things on the list were legit failures but some of them were great. Many of them they still sell and I buy.
I liked the school Sloppy Joes better than my mom's/aunts'/grandma's... Everyone I know liked/loved school Sloppy Joes
Lean Cuisine is still around, and is quite good for what it is, I eat two/three a week
You were lucky! My school’s sloppy joes were only good for food fights.
Did the cafeteria worker make them extra sloppy for u....Billy madison..😂
I'm almost 40 and I still enjoy Sloppy Joes!
I'll be 55 in a few days and I like um.
I liked Carnation Breakfast Bars-the peanut butter chocolate ones were good.
In our house we often ate Steak-umms. They were quick and with ketchup on a hard roll made a decent lunch. Lean Cuisine is still underwhelming! I forgot all about those boil-in-bag meals. We made our own pudding pops with molds.
Steak -ums with a hard roll, grilled onions and provolone.....still love it today 😋
loved banquet boil in bags ..it was a cheap filling meal that took no prep ..never mind the time i fell asleep after work and woke up to a house full of smoke and a ruined saucepan 😀
If memory serves, they were meant to be cooked (sous la vide) faster than traditional methods but became obsolete when microwave ovens became common.
I'm gonna be the oddball in this comment section here because this video already starts off with one of my favorite foods that I actually can't get enough of, sloppy Joe's! 🤪🤪🤪 I can eat several of them in one sitting.
I agree class of 83 here sloppy joes are great especially with Fritos corn chips Carnation breakfast bars were great also so I don't know what this guy is talking about😊😊
Oh no, you're hardly the odd one out. NOBODY likes this list! EVERYONE disagrees with it, and either wishes the products would come back, or - worse - still buys and eats them regularly.
I read labels. With New Coke, it was a transition from using real sugar to artificial sweeteners. It was a marketing ploy. Nothing less.
Correction: transition from sugar to high fructose corn syrup, for cost savings.
Who on earth "struggled" to eat a large cookie??
They still sell the Dr. Pepper gum, sloppy joes, turkey beacon, steak-umms, bagel bites, and yeah!! This video is based on your opinion and i was going to subscribe but, NO..
Also that sloppy Joe commercial looks about 1960, many of these foods are still around and that’s because people like them.
I LOVED when we had sloppy joes for lunch when I was a kid. It was almost as good as the school pizza we had every Friday.
Me too. I liked them both.
Then only getting chocolate milk on Friday 😡
I think there's a misprint in the title. I know alot of people who miss these products and want them brought back.
For the last time. Ayds were in the 70s. Long gone by the time most of this stuff came along.
Steakunm is still around 😊
1. Crystal Pepsi is from the 90's (1992-1994)
2. Ecto cooler was the best!
3. Bagel bites and Lean cuisine both still exist
4. Carnation breakfast bars are from the 60's
5. Bubble Yum soda was introduced in 2013
still luv me some Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli. Yum !
Growing up ,I dont remember any kid I knew who hated Sloppy Joes.
You can still get the Big Stuff Oreos but they are smaller and come in a big pack I love them and I loved Dr. Pepper gum,I wish they would bring it back.Gum nowdays has no lasting flavor.
I loved slop, slop, sloppy joes, Sizzlean, and Carnation Breakfast Bars and Chef Boy Ar Dee! Loved them!
Opinions are like noses. We all have them and they’re all different.
Some are drippier than others. Like Sloppy Joes.
Lean Cuisine was just fine for a 300 calorie dinner. Glazed chicken and rice was tasty.
The McDLT was my favorite back then! Anything frozen back in the 80s was gross... especially if it was low-fat, low-calorie, frozen pizzas... Steak-Umm is delicious now! There are a few products on this list we can still buy so they're not left in the past. I can't take the list seriously if Bagel Bites is on it...
Was there even one thing on this list that was not a favorite that people loved?
New Coke
The soda's.
Either people loved them, or they're still available now, or both. Great list!
I would rather have a cheesesteak made with real sliced steak rather than Steak-umms, but Steak-umm will still do in a pinch as long as you season it yourself.
I kind of like the Ayds candy. The taste was unique, but not unpalatable. I'd buy a box today if it was available.
Those Ayds diet candy were around way before the 80s
They were caramels dipped in lidocaine (an oral anesthetic). Supposedly the lidocaine "controlled" your hunger pands.
@@jamescooley5744 Good thing they didn't say that in the ads. . .
i cant be the only one who misses the McDLT
Chef Boyardee product are still sold, still tasty and nutritious and relatively economical. We were pretty poor growing up and that line of products was good to have on store shelves.
New Coke YUCK!!!! It
Was terrible. Until original Coke came back,I drank Pepsi
It was awful! I was a young girl at the time and really wanted to like it, but alas, no. It just reinforced my status as a Dr. Pepper fan.
Yes, i moved on to ginger ale...
I have heard that the entire thing was a ploy to get people's attention away from Pepsi and try "New Coke" out of curiosity - THEN when the inevitable protest came, changing it BACK to the original formula would make the Coca Cola Co. look like swell guys who cared about their customers. They weren't fools, they knew it wouldn't fly, and planned it that way.
I remember New Coke tasting just like Pepsi, which tastes like carbonated syrup to me.
Literally looked last week to see if they still made the carnation breakfast bars! 😂😂 All that was there was a liquid version. 🤷🏼♀️
HOLD UP!!!!! ANYONE. I MEAN ANYONE who was a kid back then looks back on Ecto Cooler with nothing but fondness. And we wish it would make a come back in all its original glory.
On the new Coke. they are trying a few new flavors now. The Coke delivery person at the store where I shop tells me they are a flop. The thing Coke hasn't caught on to is every time they increase pricing, sales go down. There are too many other options to drink other than Coke. At our local grocery store Pepsi and Dr Pepper are both over a dollar cheaper than Coke products in the twelve pack cans. Maybe Coke and Ford are run by the same people as both are screwing up badly.
His assessment of McDLT is 100% off I lived through it to this day I know people that miss it The only reason they discontinued it was the Styrofoam packages
I love me some homemade sloppy Joe's 😋. Note the homemade ❤ lol not the canned junk
When I was in high school, admittedly a bit earlier, 1974-78, sloppy joes were quite popular. Personally I never liked them, but my classmates sure seemed to. And from what I have seen they still are today. We used to work food service at auctions and other service events and the sloppy joes were always a popular item.
I still think New Coke was a ploy by Coca cola to have something out there to hype while the supplies of old coke were consumed and disappeared from the marketplace. The after a little longer it was brought back as coke classic as a "return to the original recipe, but now sweetened with high fructose corn syrup instead of cane sugar. That way people weren't able to compare the classic with the old coke and detect the difference.
Crystal Pepsi still keeps coming back and was available as recently as 2022
Crystal Pepsi was actually brought back for a limited time in 2016. Still tasted as bland as it did originally lol never was a fan of that stuff.
