11 Awesome Snacks That Will Give 90s Kids All Of The Feels
FIfthmanchester

If you are a 90's baby, like myself, you tend to get a littlenostalgica lot of the time. Well, here are some snack foods that we can all agree need to make a big comeback. While, a lot of them you can still find now in a local grocery store, they just don't seem to have quite the same effect on kids now-a-days than they did on us.

1. DunkAroos

In my opinion, this delicious snack was the very best of my childhood. Although, the "cookie to cream" ratio was a bit lacking in my opinion, which led me to always having a few extra cookies left over due to lack of self-control when dipping these yummy cookies.. But who's complaining? Anyway, if you are interested you can find a recipe on how to make your own homemade DunkAroos on Pinterest!

2. The Wonder Ball

Dun Dun Dun! Mysterious... This was a fun one! A hollow chocolate ball with candy inside? It's like an edible pinata. The best thing was that they had different "themes", if you will, like "Spongebob," "Pokemon," or "Winnie the Pooh."

3. Fruit Stripe Gum (AKA: Zebra Stripe)

This always amazed me as a kid. The gum was actually striped like a crazy colorful zebra and had a sweet and great taste. The taste didn't last long for each piece but it sure was addicting.

4. Lunchables


Yeah, yeah, yeah. Lunchables are still easy to find, even your local 7/11 probably has them, but the OG Lunchables were different. They just were, OKAY!?

5. Cosmic Brownies

Sure, these are still in any supermarket too. But nothing beats the feeling when you were a kid of opening your lunch box and finding one of these babies in there.. Or even better, a Lunchable AND a cosmic brownie, that says "Heaven" for my childhood-self.

6. Push-Up Pops

This was like the iconic dessert of my childhood, it tasted good and it was fun to eat? What is better than that?

7. Fun Dip

Kids these days just don't appreciate the value of a good candy. Fun Dip was so popular when I was a kid, kids everywhere thought it was the greatest thing. Now most kids that I speak to have no idea what I'm talking about.

8. Gushers

Gushers were like the snack that we all had in our lunchboxes as a kid every day, but never got tired of. My only wish is that more came in a pack.

9. Hubba Bubba Bubble Tape

This doesn't even need an explanation.. was there anything cooler than this???

10. Trix Yogurt

This wasn't the craziest of childhood snacks, but the fact that my yogurt sort of had a tye-dye thing going on made it taste a whole lot better.

11. Fruit Roll Ups - Tongue Tattoos

This was like magic to me as a kid. You simply hold the fruit rollup on your tongue and POOF! You have a tattoo and a yummy snack. Like really, you can;t say that this wasn't cool.

Overall, although we have some great snacks now in this day and age, I think we can all agree that nothing will ever compare to the amazing and unique snacks of our childhood.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
