If you grew up at any point in the last 20 or so years, you know just how influential these foods are...

1. Kid Cuisine

When the Mac-N-Cheese is still frozen solid, but your pudding is boiling lava hot...

You have to eat half the piece of paper just to get the candy off, but oh well, you're getting dessert and your weekly source of fiber.

3. Dinosaur Chicken Nuggets

Not even gonna lie... I still eat these.

4. Wax Bottles

Nothing like a broken jaw and teeth filled with wax, but it was worth it for the 3 drops of juice.

5.Bandaid Gum

The real reason you went to Cracker Barrel.

6. Lunchables

You felt like you had your life together when you had one of these for school lunch.

7. Cookie Crisp

8. Go-Gurt

9. Vienna Sausages

I'm really not sure what the heck made me think that these were tasty when I was a kid, but ya.

10.Cosmic Brownies

A five-star dessert right here.

11. Wonder-Ball

12. Gushers

13. Kool-Aid Bursts

Straight sugar, honestly.

14. Fruit Roll Ups

With the tattoos of course because the made you feel SO REBELLIOUS.

15. Smiley Face French Fries

Petition for Zaxby's to bring these back??

Nothing quite like Slim-jim breath.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
