We all wish we could go back to the 90's. What's not to love about it? The music, the television shows, but most importantly, the snacks! Every kid that grew up in the 90's is well aware of all the yummy snacks that are rare to see anymore. It's hard to find these delicious snacks in grocery stores, but when you do, it's impossible not to stock up on a bunch of these. Listed below are ten of the most beloved snacks from our childhood that we have forgotten about. Whether it was a midnight snack, a snack right when you came home from school, or an after dinner snack, these yummy treats have definitely left an impression on our childhood!

1. Dunkaroos

Dunkaroos. One of the best childhood snacks of the 90's. These delicious snacks came in both vanilla and chocolate flavors, and allowed you to dip the cracker into this tasty cream.

2. Baby Bottle Bops


What's not to love about baby bottle pops? There is no better childhood memory than dipping the lollipop part of this treat into the sugar and licking it off! There are sweet flavors, and also sour flavors, but sour blue raspberry was always by far the winning flavor!

3. Scooby Doo Fruit Snacks


These yummy snacks were what the 90's were all about! Each fruit snack was a variety of different flavors, and each one was just as good as the next. Yet, I still remember getting mad when there would only be one blue fruit snack in my whole pack.

4. Gushers

Gushers were one of the snacks that made the 90's what they were. These delicious snacks would burst in your mouth, and were extremely flavorful. One pack just wasn't enough. Once you started eating gushers, you couldn't get yourself to stop! Thank god they only made them in small packs!

5. Cosmic Brownies

Ahh. Cosmic Brownies. These were by far my favorite treats growing up. Every day, I would be excited to come home from school because they were my after school snack. So chewy and delicious. I still find them around grocery stores every so often, and when I do, I can't help myself but to buy a box.

6. Danimals

Danimals were a great, memorable snack of the 90's. I remember kids always begging their parents to buy them a box of Danimals. I think kids only wanted them so much because you could win a prize on the inside of the cap, such as a trip to Disneyland or California. What kid wouldn't want that?!

7. Push Pops


Push Pops were extremely popular in the 90's. I remember getting these at the concession stand every time I went to my brother's baseball games. I think what kids loved most about these were that they lasted for hours, but were also so delicious and came in so many different flavors! I remember eating these with my friends when I was younger, and always comparing who's tongue changed colors from the Push Pop.

8. Zebra Cakes

Who didn't love zebra cakes growing up? These treats came in packages of two, and had a creamy filling inside. I remember always eating these as an after dinner snack. So yummy!

9. Kool Aid Bursts

Kool Aid Burst drinks was the drink of 90's kids childhood. Any time my mother bought them, they would be gone in a day. They came in a bunch of delicious flavored colors such as blue, red, and purple. Once you had one, you needed to have more.

10. Bubble Tape

One of the most delicious gums from my childhood! Whether I was at my brother's softball games, in school, or at home, I was always chewing on bubble tape. This powdery tape was so addicting, because it felt like it was never ending!


So, if you don't know these all time great snacks, or have never tried some of them, you aren't a real 90's baby. These classic treats were what the 90's was all about. In fact, you can still find majority of these items in stores all around, yet there is a much less supply now, so get these yummy snacks while you still can!

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
