They used to be great - really buttery and soft> Now thry're akin to cheap soda crackers. Too bad!
I remember this gum so clearly. I was about 7 or 8. My favorite was the strawberry flavor. I would love to have my kids sample the gum. Man I miss those times...thanks for taking me back!!!!!
I can even remember the song from the commercial! I loved these, there was a honey nut that was my favorite thing to eat. Auntie Anne's pretzels has a topping that in my taste memory is kind of similar, but the hunt for this Holy Grail of taste still continues....

So it's like... peanut butter with banana mushed in?
I still have a bottle of Mapleine, made by Crescent Mfg. Co. It must be about 40 years old. I now live in Australia, and when I visited the USA recently I couldn't find it on the shelves at the supermarket. I checked the internet and found out that the rights to it were bought by McCormick Foods who produce it "in limited quantity." Does anyone know where to buy it? It is an excellent product, tasty and economical.
I LOVED Koogle as a kid and have been looking for a replacement for years. For a long time, Nutella was the only thing but on a recent trip to Canada I found real chocolate Peanut Butter that I believe is made by Kraft Foods in Canada. Oddly enough, Koogle was made by Kraft Foods!
RIGHT NOW IM THINKING ABOUT THE GOOD TAST OF DOO DADS ITS BETTER THEN CHEX SNACKS IM HOPING THAT YOU PLEASE PUT THEM ON THE SHELVES AGAIN
I WISH THAT THEY MAKE THE DOO DADS AGAIN THEY HAD GOOD ONES
Boy, do I really miss CAMP STEAKS. They were easy and wonderful. They made the best Philly Cheese Steak sandwiches.
I truly wish they would make a come-back.
Dolly Madison ONLY advertised during the much anticipated Charlie Brown Specials! Zingers had so much more cache than Little Debbie's because they seemed so exclusive and of course, who wouldn't want to be reminded of that excited feeling one had while watching cartoons AT NIGHT DURING THE WEEK! Zinger's were supreme when eaten from the freezer! oooh, that creamy icing filling, yum. I don't even eat them now, wouldn't be the same.
I loved Flakey Puffs, and yes they still have them in Canada. Whenever I go up to visit, I will bring back some. They are still yummy!
I miss Aspen.
I loved these places! I always got a sasparilla to drink and a patty melt. Then I watched wistfully as all the "Zoos" went by on their personal litters accompanies by the giant Farrell's drum (nope, never got that party either. Who got these?). Then, at checkout, a GIANT jawbreaker that I would lick and gnaw on for weeks and leave sitting around the house in a wad of paper towels, waiting for my next gnaw. Ahhhhh, the 70's.
I think I do. Were they very small though, like 3in. or smaller? They had a very distinctive taste. If they're the same ones, I really liked them
I loved, loved, LOVED these things! I agree with Michele that the strawberry ones were the best. God I wish they would start making them again.
My recollection is that Chum Gum was manufactured by the Curtiss Candy Company, the same folks who made Baby Ruths and Butterfingers. When they got bought out long ago, Chum Gum went away... The big secret of Chum Gum's great flavor was that it was stick shaped bubble gum, and each stick was coated with powdered sugar. The flavor didn't last long, but it was unique!
I tell ya this was a step up from Double Cola...and you got free ants with Double Cola.
OMG I GOT SICK ON THIS..I ATE A WHOLE JAR OF CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER..i think the theme song was.
Koogle with the Koo Koo Kooglie eyes.
weird i know

I keep looking every time I go grocery shopping, hoping it will come back.
Out of the blue the other day, I remembered Pizza Spins. Anyone know what company made them? Maybe we can bring them back. I loved 'em. I miss them... I WANT THEM!
