I always have at least 4-5 cans of Campbell’s Chicken and Stars soup in my pantry. It’s the ultimate comfort food! My other fave is Pepperidge Farm’s French Bread Pizzas. When I am having a bad day, that’s my g0-to.

This post made my heart happy! Okay, a couple of others – worms and dirt (Oreo pudding with Oreo crust and the gummy worms!) and Flipz chocolate covered pretzels!

Sooo excited to see this post- Loved that day on your stories!

Pillsbury ready to bake holiday cookies make me SO nostalgic- something my parents were also not very keen on growing up so they were a rare special treat lol but I’ve decided to make them part of my holiday traditions as an adult and it brings me so much joy!

Also Betty Crocker butter & herb fakey mashed potatoes – tastes like home to me <3

At sleepaway camp, we would all pack cup noodles and make it with the hot water from the bathroom sink! They were like gold, and we would trade anything for a cup noodles! We would have our parents bring them on visiting day in bulk to stock up. They were especially good on rainy days inside the bunk. Memories!

Frosted Flakes with a banana.
Old fashioned oatmeal.
Italian ice. Strawberry shortcake ice cream.
Cherry red jello cups w/ a dollop of whip cream.
Reminds me of my childhood in NYC.

I love this post!! I don’t know that I have any internationally recognizable ones lol. But my favorite cereal was something like cocoa puffs and the cinnamon crunch – still love them! Cheese puffs are also one of the salty snacks of choice then and now. Oh and this breakfast dish that is like a sweet grits with sour cherry jelly on top – sounds weird but it’s so comforting and now I can get the instant version from the supermarket, yay!

living as a kid in the 60s we were left alone quite a bit, with folks dealing with disability. so for us, it was Campbell’s soup, Oscar Meyer hot dogs and chef boy r de spaghetti, which today tastes very different. every sunday was a whole chicken on a electric rotisserie, where you put the fries on top, that would feed a family of 5 .but the holidays is were I remember those cherished nostalgic temptations, but which were more Scandinavian traditions than commercial bought tasty junk

Such a fun post! It totally got me thinking about nostalgic foods. The watermelon roll reminds me of my grandmother because my uncle would always buy it for birthday parties. I also LOVE that frozen coconut cake- so good. I grew up with my mom and aunt having weekly snack nights. It was a highlight of the week for me and so many of the snacks that we would have are so nostalgic for me now- Fritos barbeque twists, mini hot dogs, bagel pizza bites, the frozen coconut cake, glzed croissants. Yum!
