OMGosh...does no one else remember this awesome puddin???? ummmmmmmm...every bit as yummy as choc space food sticks:-)
OMG.....NOW PEOPLE WILL NOT THINK I AM NUTS......NO BODY REMEMBERS SHAKE-A-PUDDIN BUT ME, I WISH WE COULD STILL GET IT
Oh YES! I remember this and the Space Food Sticks, although peanut butter was my favorite. My grandma used to keep these in her cabinet just for me. She also had TANG, which I mixed up & then froze in her mini-jello molds for a slushie. Yum.
I still sing the song and people think i'm making it up! around the same time, there was another yummy desert called Great Shake. The powder came in a triangular packet and you poured it into a big brown plastic cup that had a snap-on lid. Add milk and shake. It also had a catchy tune. we used to get these treats very infrequently but i remember all seven of us kids, singing, shaking, in our pjs, waiting for the sunday night disney movie (at 7:30?). Good Times!
You're right Kathie. Shake a puddin' Shake a puddin', shake shake shake a puddin'. Ah, the good old days.
Butterscotch was my favorite!
Well thank God...I was beginning to think that I imagined this stuff! No one else I know can remember this treat, but I can sure remember the tune like it was last Tuesday....
Butterscotch was my favorite, too.
Shake a puddin brings back fond memories of bill cosby. Yeah, I still remember him doing the commercials & my sister with bright smiles of joy as the chocolate puddin surrounding her lips.
LOL Shake A Puddin man that jostled brain cells I thought I lost. Butterscotch was awesome, it seems like food then was better because it was more fun. Pre microwave... you had to work for your desert lol.. thanks for the blast from the past..
Too much...there actually are others who remember this great snack! If only life were as simple as the shake-a-puddin days...Friday nights, watching the Flintstones, while shaking the shake-a-puddin container...
I used to love shake a puddin'!! I remember great shakes too! I loved strawberry. My mom still has the brown plastic cup. And yes, Disney movies on Sunday nights! (eating TV dinners on TV tables) LOL
I too still sing the shake a puddin song sometimes while I am shaking other containers in the kitchen. NOW I KNOW I am not nuts! There really WAS shake a puddin! Thanks! I used to LOVE that stuff...esp sat nights watching Hockey night in Canada (with all 6 teams!) I wish they would bring it back for us! (any one remember sen-sens?)
hahahaha! I was telling my daughter about Shake a puddin at dinner tonight and she looked at me as if I was nuts!!! I thought I was the only one who remembered it, I had it everyday when I came home for lunch, I would eat it and watch the flintstones on channel 8 at 1230!! I remember Space sticks too!! Ummmm Peanut butter!!! and Sen-Sens...tasted like soap but wow!!! I was addicted to those!!!! I used to empty the whole little package into my mouth at once...the only thing that comes close to that taste it Thrills gum, which you can still find from time to time if you look hard enough.
