This past weekend in Chicago, I brought up Magic Middles cookies, which is one of my favorite cookies from when I was younger. Surprisingly, not everyone seems to recall these little discs of delicious processed chocolate, and it got me thinking about what other foods I really wish were still around:
1) The aforementioned Keebler Magic Middles. These were so so so so good. I remember heating them up for 5 seconds in the microwave for the extra chocolate goo factor.
2) Keebler Sweet Spots, which were round shortbread cookies with a faux Hershey's kiss on top. These were pretty dry as I recall but it was like getting 2 snacks in one, and came in a unique 4-pack in a paper sleeve.
3) Jell-o Pudding Pops, which apparently contained no actual pudding (who knew?) but were so delicious in that sickening artificial way. I personally liked vanilla the best and always wished they sold them in the non-variety pack, but alas.
4) Giggles Cookies. I. LOVED. THESE. Now that I see them they look straight out of some horror movie promotion and are really friggin creepy-looking, but these were SO awesome when I was younger. And they came with stickers!
Anyone else even remember any of the ones I've listed? Or have more to share from your childhood? Let me know!
I LOOOOVE Magic Middles. Those were the best!
ReplyDeleteI never had any of those growing up! haha - the difference between CA and NJ?... or, just me!
ReplyDeleteNot only do I not remember those cookies, I don't even remember you bringing them up.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I don't know if this is coincidental or not, but Magic Middles are on onceuponawin.com today.
