The Official 90's Topic! - Jerome - 01-11-2010
That 90's feeling!
Lol, so I just can't help reminiscing about the 90's .. like it happens every fucking day and every time I love it because it brings back such great memories, it's like bittersweet though .. because 90's are gone, and all we are left with now is 2000's .. and they're shit.
Anyways, I decided to make this topic about sweets and food/confectionery you drank and ate as a kid .. I mean kid as in, under 12 or 11 even .. because after that it's senior school years and they're not childish
but then Munch suggested I change the subject to just "The 90's" .. so here we go ..Just post some pictures or thought on some shit you remember in the 90's, simple right? I'll start with a fucking heap load of sweets and shit.
Nerds & Dweebs
Surely you all remember these, you had like, 2 or 3 compartments with different flavors? I spent many many a day eating these whilst out and about. (Also, I'm not sure, but I seem to remember something else like these, but called something else?)

Penny Sweets that actually cost a penny!
Yes, sweets called penny sweets that actually cost a penny, how cool?! And it was great as a kid because we would just chill out in the backstreet all day causing madness and hang out at the shop on the corner looking for pennies on the floor for some sweets

PEZ!
Lol everyone in the world must know PEZ, went through some kind of craze stage and apparently there are many collectors in the world.

10p Taz' and Freddo's!
You remember these right, probably Freddo's more so than it's Caramel counterpart Taz. I don't know why, but Freddo was more popular. One of my best friends used to be addicted to these things, he'd go out and buy like 2 pounds worth of them XD Motherfucker never got fat o_O

Chomps for 10p!
Good old caramel yumminess .. all for 10p! Nowadays they are like 20p, some as it's Fudgy competitor below, which also used to be 10p.

Fudge
Mmm, this one was of my favourites, although for some reason, I ate Chomps more then I ate these XD I think Fudges were always 15p actually, think they have gone up now.

Calypso Drinks!
These were legendary lol, because, at the corner shop they used to be sold as drinks for 10p or if you wanted, you could buy one out of the freezer for 20p and have an ice-block XD Mmm
Then after youo were finished with it, you'd crush it up into your back wheel of your bike and make your push bike sound like a motorbike

Space Raiders
Along with other 10p crisps, namely Chipsticks
It was great to be able to go and buy a few packets of 10p crisps when you were hungry.![[Image: SpaceRaiders-PO.jpg]](http://www.taquitos.net/im/sn/SpaceRaiders-PO.jpg)
Screwballs
The Ice-cream everyone wanted because of the chewing gum ball you got at the bottom XD

Hubba Bubba Chewing gum
Probably the most chewed "chuddy" of the 90's, along with a variety of others, namely, Juicy Fruit, etc. Came in all sorts of flavors and you just couldn't help yourself blowing bubbles, damn that was a hard trick to learn

You actually did that? Lol
But yeah 90s...not just sweets but SNES and N64 era too. Screw the Wii!
Re: Food and Confectionery of the 90's! - Jerome - 01-11-2010

Lol I never actually hung around the shops for people to drop pennies. I did once though when I saw pennies on the floor I'd pick them up. I once made 80 Pounds from it (with my Uncle adding change to it of course) within about 2 years. Then that part of his cupboard the money was in, a little fire started and melted the container a bit, but the money was safe.
And like my previous post says, 90s was SNES and N64 era (and PS1), so I just splashed it on N64 games
Should change the topic to ''The 90s topic'' or something, not just sweets / foods. But while we're on that subject...
Re: Food and Confectionery of the 90's! - Rien - 01-11-2010
I was born in '94, I don't think I remember much from the 90's
Re: Food and Confectionery of the 90's! - Jerome - 01-11-2010
REIN-FAIL .i.
Ok, maybe I'll change the topic subject .. I think that's a good idea.
Lol fuck that SNES shit .. 90's was Sega Mega-drive era, son! WHO wasn't playing sega all day in the 90's
