Foods you ate as a kid

Mattman3969

I was just lookin for something sweet to eat earlier and the pantry had nothing to satisfy me, so I mixed some peanut butter and white syrup and put it on ritz crackers. As a kid mom would do this but put it on bread so it was a sandwich. It got me to thinking about stuff I ate as a kid but not so much anymore. What are the foods that you ate as a kiddo and are near and dear to you now?

My Mom would make extra pasta on spaghetti night for fried noodles.

Yes I had steakums.  Those seem gross now, haha.

I was an electricity geek as a youngin and I would electrocute my hot dogs.  No faster way to cook a dog.

The Spouse does these all the time.  You have to have a dedicated jar of cinnamon sugar.

Cheese and jelly sandwiches. Well, more appropriately, cheese and jelly toast.

I hated spam as a kid. Had to cover it in ketchup just to eat it but enjoy it on occasion now

Sounds weird until you try it but a peanut butter and miracle whip sandwich.  I also cant believe no has mentioned PIZZA ROLLS yet.  I think I ate better than 1,000,000 of these growing up.
