Are there any childhood snacks you always have to buy at the store?
 
Being a grown-ish adult (24 and counting), I find myself rubberbanding back to when I was in elementary school when I see things like Handi-snacks and Dunkaroos. Like, I have to get them, because when I was 8 they were the bomb!

Trisphee, are there any snacks or foods from your childhood that make you this cray-cray?

OMG DUNKAROOS!!! THOSE ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RIGHT!??!?!!?!? I found them in canada v.v but alas I live in the states so.... despite being near the border it's just a little too out of the way for me just for a snack haha!

Wafersticks and rice cakes. xDD
Though I can never buy them...just longingly look at them.
I haven't had Dunkaroos in ages.
They're not in America anymore? I'll ship them to you. >>

>:O i would forever be in your debt Pathosis!! We have a ton of rice cakes and wafersticks over here (the strawberry ones were da bomb). *hordes them*

Pathosis 11-08-2012 01:34 AM

Hahaha, where near the border are you? xD
I'm in Ontario, a little ways away from the border to Michigan.
I'd get such a weird look if I actually delivered Dunkaroo's. 8D;;
I like rice cakes way more than wafer sticks. >>;;

Ah I'm about 2 hours away in Buffalo haha xD

You actually can find them still in America...My walmart still had them! And food lion as well.

You can also order them in bulk online from the company (or at least you could last year)

Buffalo is a bit more than 2 hours away from us. xD
Buffalo is near Niagara Falls.
And Niagara Falls is...5 hours away? Dx
And that's only to our Canadian side.

I'm Asian. So growing up I totally followed my stereotype and ate typical Asian snacks like seaweed snack packs, wasabi peas, dried crunchy fish (and other sea creatures) things, and the like. >w< I still love them all to this day, but my favourite remains to be those delightful seaweed snack packs. <3

I ALWAYS have to restrain myself from buying them when I know that I shouldn't do so at the moment. :(

Pathosis 11-08-2012 01:50 AM

I've eaten seaweed sheets before.
They're pretty good, but they left a weird after-taste in my mouth.
>>;;
Wish I could say I tried other ethnic snacks when I was a kid, but I didn't. Dx

Arikana 11-08-2012 02:28 AM

I'm so happy my parents get them often! <3
They know what stuff is good and what isn't! >w<

seaweed o_o;;;;;;;

oh, and yeah I tend to only measure as far away as London ON >.>;

I missed some of my favorite snack foods when I was a kid but when I see them at my store I have to stay far away to many calories and to much sugar. =P

asdfghjkl seaweed snack packs. I haven't had nori is forever. String cheeeeeese. They sell string cheese in Entropy though, so I'm good on that end. There're some other ones, but I'm too tired/stressed to remember...

...I was never a big fan of Skittles, TBH. Just pointing that out. -grabs nearest riot shield-

I don't buy snacks, ever. I love them, but out of sheer willpower I avoid them at all costs. My "snacks" usually consist of apples, yogurt, or toast. Snacks are way too expensive to buy regularly. But when I was a freshman and could buy everything I ever wanted with my meal plan, my snacks consisted of string cheese, salt&vinegar pringles, and nutella.
