Kabooms will always remind me of my nana. My mom wouldn’t buy but when I went to my nana house she’d get me whatever I wanted.

[@Tomatohater64]

I virtually lived on cold cereal during the 70s. It was the perfect breakfast but unfortunately, I liked it for lunch and dinner too, as well as an evening snack. We'd buy 4 or 5 boxes of cereal and two gallons of milk every two weeks at the grocery store. Today at 60, I might eat 3 boxes of cereal a year.

Buc-wheats were my favorite when I was in high school.

[@joesteedman8230]

I forgot about Buc-wheats.

The one thing they definitely should bring back is the carnation instant breakfast bar. And I'm not talking about the ones with granola that they have on the selves now because they suck. Especially the peanut butter bar. They do have breakfast bars in stores now but it didn't taste as good as the original breakfast bar mainly because these bars contain granola in them. I know granola is a health food and all but still the carnation breakfast bar was still a favorable breakfast item they should bring back.

[@davidfiddleman2312]

💯 loved those!

[@kurttoy5035]

One breakfast item I would like to see come back is General Mills' Breakfast Squares. BTW Fortified Oat Flakes was on the market before 1970.

[@rogertemple7193]

I really enjoyed the cereal commercials Kelloggs, Post, General Mills, Ralston-Purina, Malt-o-Meal and many of the other smaller companies that made breakfast cereals especially during the 70's and 80's Thanks for the Memories. 💞☕🍳🍲🥓🍳🥛💞

[@DebbieandEddieBFF]

I want the Carnation Breakfast Bars!!!

[@justmejenny7986]

I want 5 Alive back. Anyone remember that drink?

[@katiez4207]

Omg! I do remember now that you mentioned it. It was an excellent blend of citrus.

[@DenWell-SeedsOfChaos]

I remember that! I think we got it in frozen concentrate. Is frozen concentrate juice still a thing? I haven't seen it in years.

[@m.k.8158]

@@DenWell-SeedsOfChaos Yes, it's a standard supermarket item.'

[@callmethehandyma_am]

I used to drink that as a young kiddo...and I think it was the concentrate

[@jaredbaratono897]

@@callmethehandyma_amUsed to buy it in cardboard half gallons too. Miss 5 Alive.

[@DenWell-SeedsOfChaos]

Cereals like Honeycomb, Corn Pops and Trix tasted so much better back then. They really aren't very good now. I only had Kaboom once while in Oklahoma in 79, it was really good! I want some now...

[@swannoir7949]

I noticed that, too

[@ZoruaZorroark]

i had the versions that was available in the 90's, and despite that, i strongly agree with you

[@Tokeepmypromise]

I just started watching these videos and I'm absolutely addicted!

[@raynardabraham7831]

The breakfast items that I want back are Pop-Ups & Danka Toaster pastries from General Foods & Morton's Frozen Donuts.

[@volstar8]

Love the videos on meals we want back from the past! Really have enjoyed them and look forward to seeing more videos about food from the past that we loved! Thanks again for the great video!

[@jocelynharris-fx8ho]

In 1973, they had these bars called 'breakfast squares'. They were delicious but never saw them after that. I wish that they would come back. I also remember Chocolate Peppermint PopTarts.😋

[@richardramos1646]

I grew up eating Maypo cereal, but haven't seen it on store shelves for years. I'm glad to see it's still being manufactured and sold

[@danbanks7930]

Carnation breakfast squares are something that I remember fondly and for some reason my parents like to get these fancy Donuts you get in your freezer section at the store and you warm them up in your oven when you wanted them I remember those were pretty good and you don't see those anymore at the store

[@juliepoolie5494]

My mom would make those frozen donuts! Mmm! Warm glazed donuts!

[@danbanks7930]

some of these like SPAM never went away!

[@marvelkingdom1972]

Just me or... some of things mentioned are STILL being enjoyed?¿?

[@fredzzkid]

Maypo. That's what's missing from my kitchen cabinets. That stuff was awesome!

[@luisreyes1963]

Since when has fondue been considered a breakfast food? 🧐

[@tidepoolclipper8657]

I'm seriously confused as to what Eggo Waffles is doing here.

[@jocelynharris-fx8ho]

Right. Eggo waffles DIDN'T go away !! I have some in my freezer.

[@VelvetDraginfly]

I use to love Grapenuts, then one day the woman I was living with pointed out their likeness to cat litter while I was pregnant and going through morning sickness. And That was That. Never again have I been able to eat them.

[@user-yt2ur1fp4z]

I remember those and would eat them again like kaboom.

[@gmwcfhg]

I loved Krazy Kow cereal that came out when I was about 6 - the chocolate version reminded me of Cocoa Puffs!

[@swannoir7949]

I got some Maypo at the food pantry the other week. Glad it's non-GMO. I'd take that over Quaker Oats.

[@PC-zz9cy]

Fortified Oat Flakes was the best cereal ever. Buc Wheats was good too, but alittle too crunchy.

[@breeinatree4811]

I always loved chocolate malt-o-meal, especially on cold mornings. You could make it with water, but i preferred using milk. The only place i can still find it is Amazon.

[@user-te4kk2gy1o]

Food lion, piggy wiggly, in so states, I love malt o meal.

[@laurierood5224]

Omg I loved the Danish rounds. Way better than pop tarts

[@fredgroenke2586]

Spam and sausage McMuffin, Quiche, Mary Kitchen hash, Eggo’s and French toast sticks are still readily available. Not sure why they’re on this

[@117Pinkyflower]

We called Egg In A Basket , Toad In A Hole. 😊

[@katiez4207]

Egg in a basket is what my mom called it.

[@steelphantom9105]

It was more of a Italian breakfast meal. My Mom would make egg in the basket with oatmeal on the side.

[@luisreyes1963]

Toad In A Hole was actually sausages in batter.

[@Tomatohater64]

The inventor of the Big Mac in 1967, the man in the picture, Jim Delligatti, said he ate a Big Mac almost every day. He lived to age 98. In return for giving McDonald's the recipe for the Big Mac, they paid him 25 cents for every one sold world wide. At his passing his net worth was 20 million dollars.

[@amyboone125]

I really miss Kaboom cereal!

[@user-vh2pk6bd3g]

Grape Nuts flakes tasted like pea gravel

[@robbates8874]

Considering the large proportion of items that never left… “We want back…”. I do not think it means what you think it means…

[@snacktivist]

I friggin love bran muffins

[@Pudentame]

Hmmm ... There were several of these "famous breakfasts from the 1970s" that I had never heard of, but I had corn beef hash & an egg for breakfast just last week.

[@beasefcik2469]

I miss Kaboom so much!

[@lancasterritzyescargotdine2602]

You can tell by the in-pack premiums they were cutting back. Notice the toys were mostly paper and cardboard. In the 1950s the toys were colorful, accurately defined cars, planes, dinosaurs, railroads and vessels in plastic. Before the postwar era, cereal premiums tended to be made of metal including tin, stamped steel, lead and die-cast. They represented military subjects, popular cartoons, comic heroes, balsa-wood planes, movie stars, rings and pin backs. Today, you're lucky to find a recipe for some silly diet or other fantasy nonsense, but there's tons of cereals with more sugar than was ever complained of in the 1970s.
