18 Childhood Snacks We Miss the Most
Some childhood snacks just hit differently. Whether they were sweet, salty, or totally unique, we wish we could still find them in stores. Let’s remember 18 snacks from the past that we’d love to taste again.
1. Dunkaroos

Dunkaroos were the ultimate snack for any ’90s kid. This delightful treat consisted of small cookies that you would dunk into a little tub of frosting. They came in several flavors, but the most memorable was the vanilla cookies with rainbow sprinkle frosting. Despite their popularity, Dunkaroos were discontinued in the U.S. in 2012.
2. Altoids Sours

Introduced in the early 2000s, Altoids Sours quickly became a favorite for those who loved a tangy treat. These small, round candies delivered a powerful burst of sourness, encased in a classic Altoid tin. They came in various flavors like raspberry and tangerine but were sadly phased out by the end of the decade.
3. Butterfinger BB’s

Butterfinger BB’s were essentially mini, ball-shaped versions of the classic Butterfinger bar. Launched in 1992, these bite-sized peanut butter and chocolate treats were perfect for sharing (or not). However, they disappeared from the market in 2006, much to the dismay of their fans.
4. Squeezit

Squeezit drinks were a staple in many lunchboxes throughout the ’80s and ’90s. These colorful, plastic bottles filled with fruity liquid were fun because you’d squeeze them to drink.
