If you grew up in the early 2000s like I did, you probably have a few snacks that bring back memories of your childhood. These snacks had a way of making you feel like the coolest kid in school when your mom packed them in your lunchbox. Here are some of the best beloved food from your childhood.
1. Dunkaroos.
These were a delicacy to kids from the '90s to early 2000s. Sadly, they were discontinued. A moment of silence, please.
2. Ritz Handi-Snacks.
Again, there's something about dipping snacks that makes them cooler.
3. Gripz.
These were tiny versions of snacks like Cheez-Its and Chips Deluxe, but much cooler than the regular versions because they were mini.
4. Teddy Grahams.
These little bear-shaped graham crackers were almost too cute to eat. Almost.
5. Goldfish.
Goldfish are a really basic, but lovable snack. The colored and pizza flavored ones are extra fun.
6. Cosmic Brownies.
Brownies are great no matter what, but add the chocolate frosting and those awesome neon sprinkles and they were irresistible.
7. Fruit Roll-ups, Fruit by the Foot, and Gushers.
All of these snacks were fruity and chewy, basically every kid’s favorite.
8. Scooby-Doo Fruit Snacks.
Fruit snacks in general were the bomb, but they tasted the best when they were in the shape of Scooby-Doo characters.
9. Go-gurt.
The tube was a great way that companies made kids go crazy for yogurt.
10. Trix Yogurt.
I don’t know who thought yogurt should be neon blue or pink, but I never complained.
11. Danimals.
These were delicious and you didn't even care that they left you with a smoothie mustache.
12. Cookie Crisp, Trix, Coco Puffs, and Lucky Charms.
All of these cereals were sought after by so many kids, probably because the TV commercials were always on during our cartoons.
13. Lunchables.
If you took a Lunchables to school, you were automatically the coolest kid at the lunch table for the day.
14. Kid Cuisine.
These were TV dinners for kids that came with a variety of cool side dishes.
15. Sunny D.
This was really sugary orange juice -- what’s not to love?
16. Capri Sun, Hi-C, and Hawaiian Punch
What kid didn't love a good juice pouch?
17. Ice Pops.
These ice pops were the best after a long day of swimming in the summer.
