Can anyone recall what the Scooby Doo snacks were, and what flavor?
Thanks
As far as I can remember they were just called “Scooby Snacks” and I can’t remember any particular flavor. I seem to remember references to “Shaggy Snacks” too, but I could be mistaken about that.
The “official” Scooby recipe…

All this reminded me that Tower Records was selling them awhile ago, now they don’t. But, here is a place were you can get them:
Shaggy likes Scooby Snacks, too! But then, Shaggy looks like a Deadhead and he thinks his dog can talk.
I’m guessing there are some controlled substances involved.

I have to agree with NutWrench here on the controlled substances part. Anything that can make a dog or human rocket up into the air and then float back down has to be a controlled substance. Not to mention the consumer of Scooby Snacks suddenly had a lot more courage…
Let’s not forget Droopy Dog’s uncontrollable use of downers…
Ok, so I was watching some Scooby Babies kind of show with my kidlets the other day. I am guessing this is a fairly recent show, think it was on Nick, Jr or Cartoon Network. Scooby is a (big) puppy, and all of the gang are still kids. Shaggy is yet to sprout whiskers. And if you can imagine this, the mysteries are even simpler than the old series, I guess that they are aiming at 3-6 year olds.
Anyway, the episode we were watching was about some monster that was terrorizing the Scooby Snack Factory. There were all kinds of different snack flavors, including pizza, chocolate, etc. Some of the hijinx included the flavor vats. And although I didn’t actually watch the episode from the beginning, the implication was that they were just some kind of munchy.
There was another episode of “Scooby Babies” (or whatever) that showed Daphne’s butler mixing the first batch of Scooby snacks. But they didn’t say what was in them.
Furryman, good to see that I was not just tripping. Do you recall if they had something like a “mystery wagon” in lieu of the Mystery Machine?
And Scrappy-doo was probably on a mixture of crack and anabolic steroids.
Ahem. It’s A Pup Named Scooby Doo, people. Geez, kids today got no culture…
“one oz of finely ground herbal medicine”?
I wonder what they mean…
What I’ve always wanted to know is:
1)Are the snacks named for the dog?
2)Was the dog named for the snacks?
or
3)Is it some sort of happy coincidence that they have the same name?

The recreational pharmaceutical properties have been acknowledged in relatively recent lyrics (can’t remember the band’s name):
“Running around robbing banks all whacked on the Scooby snacks…”
That was Fun Lovin’ Criminals in Scooby Snacks from the “Come Find Yourself” disc.
These guys also did a cool song called Love Unlimited with the cool lyric “Barry White saved my life”.
