5 Snacks All 90's Kids Had

If you were born between 1990-1999, you have definitely had your fair share of awkward fashion stages, weird music taste, and "of course" iconic necessary snacks. Certain snacks in your old-school, tin cartoon lunchbox would automatically make you '"cool" and have everyone begging for a piece or two. It's most likely that these snacks don't even exist anymore, but us 90's kids had the lucky opportunity of living in a time when they were accessible.

1. Trix Yogurt

"Silly Rabbit, Trix are for kids" We all loved that cute white bunny who always tried to steal the kids' yogurt in each commercial.. ah memories.

2. Fruit Roll-Up

If you were really lucky and your mom or dad would treat you to this snack in your lunchbox at least twice a week, which ultimately meant you were the coolest kid at lunch that day.

3. Bubble Tape

Even though almost no school allowed kids to chew gum you always had to have it with you for when school was out. If you had this very specific gum there was no way you were going to get away without sharing. Almost everyone would bombard you asking for a strip because it was the best gum there was!

4. Dunkaroos

The holiest of snacks. The Holy Grail if you will, the most delicious, coolest, hippest, most fun snack there ever was. To get this snack in your lunchbox was a privilege and honor.

5. Kool-Aid Bursts

Convincing your parents to buy this special treat was nearly impossible and 9 out of 10 times they were going to say no. There was just no way of justifying that it was actually made out of real fruit. But if you were a lucky one, every once in a while your parents would surprise you with the most popular drink there was!

We all want to go back to the time when eating unhealthy snacks didn't matter and didn't make you panic about having to go to the gym, and you didn't worry so much about your health because that was your parents job! Reminiscing on the old days on how innocent you were and how much easier life seemed. Thankfully, now we can get whatever snacks we want without having to ask our parents permission-- yay for adulthood!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
