Let's take a look at some of these long lost classic foods of the 1970s! Times have changed and some of them just wouldn't work today but I do feel some need to be brought back!

    Loved Marathon bars! That was Patrick Wayne, son of John, in the ad. Ding Dongs, and pudding in cans!

    Does anybody else remember Jell-O 123? As a kid, I loved the way it set in layers, and I loved the creamy top layers. It's a shame that they discontinued it.

    Does anyone here remember when the 100 grand chocolate bar was the $100,000 bar, all spelled out like that and packaged in a similar fashion as the Marathon Bar? It was huge! And it only costed a quarter!!!! Those were the days! 💯😂

    Born in 1956, I remember all these, the 70's was a great decade to be a teenager!

    I remember that Hickory Farms boxes were the ideal thing to send people as holiday presents (either when you couldn't think of anything else - or last minute gift)

    Sitting here almost in tears over a food video.. smh.. My goodness how this has made me so homesick for my childhood. I've had many of those items with some of my favorite being the Kellogs Danish rings, the chocolate pudding is the small can, the Swanson t.v. dinners and many more. Koogle was a treat when I would spend the night at my cousins house. I would take the old days anytime over modern times..
  • We also used to enjoy "Bacon Thins" as kids in the seventies!! They were kin to "Chicken in a Biscuit"
  • @wht-rabt-obj
    Marathon bars were my ALL TIME FAVORITE. I still miss them 🥺
  • The Dolly Madison snacks(Googles) got changed into what we now know as "Zingers" one was raspberry/coconut,one was like chocolate cake( with chocolate icing),and the 3rd was a yellow cake with creme filling similar,but not the same as a Twinkie...

    Does anyone remember Product 19 cereal? I used to like that, even as a kid. Reading these comments has been a nice walk down memory lane

    I'm calling for the immediate reinstatement of Banana Flips and Pizza Spins.

    I was born in 1957 and loved the 70’s!!! Graduated in 1975 married 1979!! Good times!💖💕
  • Frute Brute still comes out (along with Franken Berry, Boo Berry, and Count Chocula) every year during the Halloween season...
  • @cris_261
    Anyone remember Hi-C in the metal can? The razzy cakes remind me of round versions of Dolly Madison's line of Zinger snack cakes. I think the Peanuts characters also promoted Zingers at one point.
  • I was born in 1960, so these are all part of my teen years. What a magical time it was...
  • @a1orski
    Anyone remember Quisp and Quake cerials? Each box contained a miniature comic book of the characer.
  • @johnmadison3472
    There are 2 products I remember exclusive to the 70s. Freakies cereal (had several cute monster characters) and Hostess O's...powdered donuts with raspberry filling inside. I miss those! Great video!
  • Pudding in a can! Holy crap, I remember eating Del Monte canned chocolate fudge pudding as a kid in the 80's. Forgot all about that stuff. Way better than snack pack.
  • When my mom went to work in the 80's I remember Grape nut cereal a high fiber cereal and I often ate it with warm milk. It made it more like a nutty flavored mush.
