When I think of the snacks I ate as a child, there are six snacks that are difficult to find today, and I still feel the changes of the times when I think of them, and those are the six old-fashioned snacks that are very popular in my childhood memories.
Cake with small umbrella
The first is the "paper umbrella cake" that I loved very much in elementary school, a pink paper tray with a simple small paper umbrella inserted, and a sweet little cake underneath, the sweetness of the cream still makes me unforgettable. We girls couldn't help but want to taste the pink packaging, although the workmanship of the paper umbrella is very rudimentary now, but that childlike love has become part of my childhood memories.
Big bubble gum
Let's talk about "Big Bubble Gum", when TV commercials were playing every day, and I couldn't help but ask my father to buy me a pack every time. Blowing bubbles, a layer of glued to the face and hands, is very novel. The price of a dime a pill is also approachable, and the taste still seems to be on the tip of my tongue.
Dried figs
When I was in elementary school, the first place I had to go after school was the kiosk in front of the school, and I always liked to buy a bag of "shredded figs" to relieve my hunger. A white piece wrapped inside, sweet and sour to eat, refreshing and appetizing. I still can't help but drool when I think back to the taste, and I really hope to eat it again.
Is it very appetizing
Let's talk about "crispy peanuts", the outer skin is made of soft flour, and when you bite it open, the inside is fragrant peanut kernels, which arouses endless appetite. It's a pity that after a long time, it will be hard, and it will no longer have the crispiness when it first came out of the pan. Every time I think about it, I still can't eat it.
Have you ever eaten it?
There is also my favorite "devil candy", which changes color as soon as the sweet icing is eaten, but I can't help but want to eat it. In the end, because there was too much pigment, my parents didn't let me eat it, but I didn't expect that I couldn't find it now, and I could only taste that wonderful feeling in my memory.
I don't know if it's still a taste
After school, my favorite "Mimi shrimp sticks" to go to the store to sweep is full of raw and umami and super addictive. It's not easy to clean the residue in my mouth, but the crispy crust is so delicious that I can't help but want to eat a whole pack. Looking back on that smell now, I still can't help but drool.
These six snacks filled my childhood with joy and novelty. Times have changed and many old snacks have been replaced by new ones, but when I think about them, I feel like I'm back to that carefree childhood. Have you eaten these old time snacks too? Do you miss the fond memories they bring as much as I do?
