It’s probably not much different from chicken in a smaller can, except that I’m pretty sure this still has all the bones in it, and it’s in a bigger can too.
Quaker Maple and brown sugar instant oatmeal. Are it frequently my whole life. A year or two ago they changed it drastically. Now I find it vile.
I still eat it periodically at work, but I mix it with some plain quick oats. It cuts the sugar and makes it a lot more manageable. But for my money cinnamon roll’s the most delicious flavor.
How in hell could I have forgotten this one?!?
The file is corrupted. You have to wait for the system to reset. Watch for a black cat. 
Kool-Ade or Freshie. Remember those powder crystals that you mixed with a cup (!!) of sugar and water? We lived on that stuff as kids. Always had the “Kool-Ade mustache.” I was offered a glass many years ago and nearly puked from the sweetness.
I’ll mention another one which people look at me like I’m crazy for and that’s Mcdonald’s McNuggets. I actually preffered the nuggets they had before they switched to all white meat. They just had a better flavor to me. I dunno.
Oh, that’s a good one. I totally agree with you. The McDonald’s fries/beef tallow is one that I expected to show up, but I don’t remember the beef tallow fries. I just know that I always liked McDonald’s fries and still do (for one particularly style of fries. Overall, I prefer the Five Guys skin-on style.)
Five Guys is wonderful. There is one about 30-45 minutes from here and that’s close enough. Any closer and that would be a problem.
Same here. Granny Smith apples tasted a little like the apples of my youth, but they wrecked those around 2003. A couple of years ago I found some orchard apples sold by the man who grew them in northern Wisconsin, and they were delicious. I just can’t remember the cultivar. IIRC, they had pinkish red skin with a little striping, and were rounder than most common apples. They were also quite small. Delicious!
Good luck with apple seeds. Seedling apples are never the same as the parent tree. Getting a good apple tree from seed is a genetic longshot.
I agree about growing apple trees from seed - you don’t know what you’ll get. You’d be better off buying a seedling from a nursery. There are many companies that sell seedlings by mail order. If you do this, be sure to get one that will do well in your area. Study the cultural requirements of the varieties you’re interested in. Most varieties are not self-pollinating, which means you’d have to get two types of trees that bloom at the same time. Different varieties have different chill requirements (the amount of cold weather they need in winter to bear fruit). If you decide to do this, do your research or you will probably be disappointed in your results.
Oh yes, yes it can. Instant CoW and Instant Grits don’t even come close to the taste/texture of the real thing.
Most of the candy I liked as a child now consist mainly of corn syrup.
Thanks for that info Jeff!
I’ve been on a bit of a planting frenzy lately (three orange, a second lemon, a tangelo, a nashi and two mandarin saplings have recently been planted in my yard) and I was tossing up whether to plant some red or some green apples first. So your timing couldn’t be better! 
Then there’s the opposite: Foods that you hated as a kid but like now.
Mine:
Orange juice. HATED it as a child. One day in high school I had a bottle and loved it.
Tomato soup. Wouldn’t go near it as a kid. It’s okay now.
But as for green peas - they’re still a big NOPE.
Forgive me for sounding like an old fuddy-duddy, but Hershey’s chocolate (almost anything) is the worst. If you put a morsel in your mouth and let it dissolve–IT BURNS! And like Woody Allen says, And such small portions, too.
Go, get them now.
Beluga caviar. There WAS a 24-year gap between tastings. And this time it was with DP champagne and not just beer.
The thread title immediately reminded me of an old Rush Limbaugh fake commercial. (Yes, even though it is Rush, it is funny):
“a secret blend of tuna, dolphin, shark, medical waste, and dead sea turtles who choked on deflated helium balloons”
