One staple of my college years that I think they discontinued: Uncle Ben's Rice Bowls. I basically lived on those things.

They still havebUncle Ben's rice bowls. I saw them at Giant.

Wait... why procreate only to abandon to minimum-wage workers? Does this really happen in a developed country?

Hell yeah it happens. And you are going to get roasted alive for suggesting that it's even marginally questionable.

Dear last 3 posts (1 poster I'm assuming), you already have your own thread, please move along.

Now back to foods we no longer eat:

Saltines with butter (I'm not necessarily opposed, it just wouldn't occur to me to eat these)
reconstituted dry milk (this stuff was pure evil)
carob (last year my mom actually apologized for having fed me this)
Postum (they don't make it anymore and I miss it even though it was kind of gross).

You know, people, no matter how healthy you think you are eating, in 30 years your progeny will be making fun of what you ate.

I didn't know that anybody ever did eat Waldorf salads. I thought they only existed in cookbooks.

We always have Waldorf Salad at Thanksgiving along with ambrosia (canned mandarin oranges, canned pineapple, miniature marshallows, maraschino cherries and blended with Cool Whip). We call both our official family vegetables. But then we are poor white trash with money.

My grandmother and great grandmother both lived healthy lives until their mid 90's. They ate pretty healthy but liked doughnuts and cookies and they baked with crisco! The only thing they ever avoided their entire lives was alcohol and cigarettes.

Tostinos party pizzas. I used to eat them almost every day during the summer. My sister and I would split them. I miss them!

sugar substitutes. I used to use them to reduce calories. Now, I'd rather have either a sprinkle of real sugar, or nothing at all.

+1 to that.

Also: Lucky Charms, Captain Crunch, Cocoa Krispies, etc....
Milk/cream/Cremora in coffee -- I drink it black now
Commercially processed flavored powdered coffees
Meat-filled ravioli -- whether it's Chef Boyardee or high end Italian -- it just tastes yuck
Butter on baked potato
Butter on bread
Margarine

what's wrong w/ butter (in moderate amounts)?
