Some of these snacks are still made today. One of my favorites from childhood, as I have many, were the double decker moon pies chocolate flavored with a Tahitian treat soda... Sigh the memories! I wish they'd bring back the Tahitian Treat soda.
True. I was raised in a small town and the great thing about the glass bottle was getting 2 cents refund on each bottle which we used to buy penny candy at the mom & pop store. We used to search the road side looking for empty bottles, and the qt. Size bottles brought a nickel which we exchanged for a nickel candy bar was bigger than today’s $1 + size.
@@janetyurkin822 For a short time, I recall as a kid that soft drinks in bottles were sold for $0.05, a nickel, and you picked them out of a big tub that was loaded with ice. I think I was about 7 or 8. Comic books were $0.12 cents. Long time ago ... in the old days. ;-)
I remember eating Scooter pies as a kid. There were Bugles and Whistles. And there was this breakfast drink that you had to buy a shaker with that came in these triangular packages that were great, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, orange. I'd still buy them if they were around.
Not sure, but that might have been Carnation Instant Breakfast?? I remember the triangle packaging too. IF it was that, it still exists, just in regular drink envelopes
@@TLStitches Instant Breakfasts used to come in a square pack, and actually when I couldn't find the triangular one I would shake the IB in the shaker that I had for the other product ... that it was not IB. Thanks. Those triangular things were good, but I don't think they had all the nutrition / vitamins of IB.
I finally remember going to the store in the 70s and my dad would buy Frozen premade Donuts that you take home and heat it up in the oven and I just remembered they were so good you don't see them anymore
I still eat Moon Pies, vanilla, single decker. Growing up, my mother and grandma always had a fruit jello salad in the ice box, and deviled eggs. Frozen dinners now are a very dim shadow of the 1950’s version. They are no longer a full meal.
Sadly, it’s not true that moon pies are “available in any convenience store.” Neither are they available in any grocery stores in my area. I have been searching for them the last two weeks, because we have a large family birthday party happening on the same day as the last local, complete solar eclipse for I think 40 years! We want to have Sun chips and moon pies etc. So perhaps it now depends upon where you live, but I am heading to Amazon after this to see if I can order some there.
Microwaves were available under a different name at that time in the 50's. They were called Radarange ovens. Not many homes had them yet. Swanson (and maybe others) were making pot pies then so, it could have been possible to pop a frozen pot pie into the Radarange, although I don't think they were packaged safely for microwave use. You would have had to move them out of the aluminum dish they came in.
I don't see TV Dinners as being the same exact thing as more modern frozen dinners that replaced them. Especially as apparently TV Dinners often tasted more like cardboard.
tidepoolclipper8657, Believe it or not, TV dinners (and pot pies) we're very good when they first came out. They were meant to be a time-saving and convenient substitute for a real cooked meal. But modern TV dinners and pot pies are made of such cheap ingredients that they no longer taste good or have much nutritional value. They have instant mashed potatoes instead of real mashed potatoes. Freeze dried-out vegetables instead of frozen vegetables. I gave up on store-bought pot pies and make my own now.
Eskimo pies - loved those. Guess they would be First People pies today. The packaging was a demeaning stereotype as well, but the chocolate-covered ice cream was yummy.
Aside from the name, the ice cream bars themselves aren't extinct. They go by the name of Polar Pies in Australia and are now referred to as Edy's Pies in North America. Australia has a polar bear on some of their boxes.
As far as I know, the Swanson brand is extinct. However, if you are willing to accept another brand of pot pies literally everything on this list hasn’t gone anywhere and are still available.
I used to love frozen pot pies, until I became more health-conscious and looked at the ingredients. Just one has enough salt for about 3 days intake, not to mention all the other questionable stuff.

In the 1970s worst foods people don't want back video, you trash talked fondue; saying that that stuff often tasted bad when using cheese or chocolate of lower quality or that they were cooked for too long. You also made it seem like fondue didn't become popular until the 1970s. Yet here you admit this stuff got popular before that point. Not to mention now you claim that people TRULY miss this stuff.

I want glass bottles back. Tasted so much better than cans
💯
Yes
Agreed, and they don't fill up our bodies with micro and nano plastic particles that kill us.

The title is a bit misleading. Nearly all these never went away and are still here. Oh, well.
Oh, the Wax Lips. Ha, ha, I remember those! Loved them!
A lot of those snacks can still be found today.
some or most of them you can still get
You can get moon pies and these soft drinks at any Cracker Barrel as well as old fashioned candies.
I miss the original FAYGO flavors in glass bottles

I lived on those as an elementary school kid who was perpetually late waking up and had to eat fast.

Glass bottles keep the soda carbonated longer
YES AND PLASTIC BOTTLES CAUSE CANCER!
When I was a child in the Northeast instead of moon pies we had scooter pies.

My mother and aunt made some of the best deviled eggs that I have ever tasted .
The only snack I want back is the Suzy Q! That was my favorite snack of all time.
I knew it!, Rice Crispy Treats are made from Rice Crispies and Marshmellow, I told my mum, "Oh really?"
Our local Valley Dairy Restaurant sells banana splits in regular size and miniature.
Moon pies and an ice cold bottle of RC Cola..
What do we need to do America Before to bring back deviled eggs? I WANT THEM BACK!
My mom makes em all the time. I don't do cold eggs of any kind
My Mom made them often up til she passed in 2016.
They are definitely not too difficult for you to learn to make them!
Bring back Scooter Pies.
😅I remember them as a kid😂!
4:47 Considering what's happened to other product mascots, I'm surprised that certain people aren't up in arms over Twinkie the Kid.
I’ve never heard of this person.
16:00 Popping the pot pies into the microwave (in the 1950's ????) I don't think so!
Return? Pot Pies are still very much with us, maybe not Swanson, but at least three other brands I have tried.

Nothing better, love moon pies
Most of them are still widely available

That bubble gum in candy cigarettes were terrible, but I would still buy them. I was born in 66. 🤣
They told me my bad heart couldn't take it so I quit not easy, but I did it.
PDQ chocolate drink mix please!
Contrary to popular belief, there are countries out there selling candy cigarettes as candy sticks and generally forgo any realistic packages.
I remember everyone smoking in the family except my stepdad.
The tv dinners were better back then. Turkey with gravy and peas with a desert. The quality was better.
That's for sure 😂🎉!
I loved wax lips
Banana Flip?
Keebler French Vanilla Cremes My wife's favorite. I've checked whether they are still being made for markets in other parts of the world. No goodski.
I like the muddy buddys
I've seen candy cigarettes for sale where I am in WV a few months ago
Mentions popsicles, shows anything but an actual popsicle.
The Scottish Tunnock's sno balls is nothing like the American version.
And it probably predates the American one.
Bannanna flips!
Ohhhhh I loved wax lips!!
Twinkies were invented in the 30s
Mom, uncle, niebor. I did start smoking until 40 quit about 60.
New Twinkies taste like Saw Dust
EGG CREAMS !!!!!!!
Now at 80 don't miss it. I quit cold turkey. No dr. No cruth.
Wax flutes were much better than wax lips.
Look up Wowee Whistle.
I hated moon pies, and still do 😖
I'm just a fatty

Two pieces of cardboard, about 1/8 inch thick in circle same size as rubber

Me too!
This video has very little to do with the 1950s.
They showed a man sitting at a table eating a moon pie. The soda next to him should have been an RC Cola.
Sugar, salt, chemicals, yummy
😂 yea
