A food you eat that instantly takes you back to childhood?

[Cherry Brigand]

Let's call it the ratatouille moment.

For me, it's Nilla wafers (not Vanilla wafers). I don't know why, but Its like I'm instantly 5 years old again, enjoying them with milk. It's like I can feel the life I had then- the clothes, the carpet, the toys, the people around me, the sights and sounds...just from biting into one.


It's such a powerful thing that happens and it happens every time.

Nilla Wafers are a good choice. I will add Animal Crackers, especially from that box that looked like a circus

Capri Sun drinks and corndogs

 

[Belaya Smert]

Overcooked Lasagna would be at the top of my list.

 

[Red Beard]

That's a fun question! I would say a full Thanksgiving meal brings me back to a much simpler and wholesome time.

Pizza Hut Supreme pizza. Makes me think of begging my parents for quarters to play the Ninja Turtles arcade game and drinking coke from those textured red plastic cups.

 

[Big Dawg]

Coco Puffs

 

[SummerStriker]

Overcooked chicken. Spherical hamburgers off the grill. Onion dip. Cookies

 

[Fox by the Sea]

if i'm eating then it's wildly different from what i experienced as a child.
going to bed hungry would be what childhood was like.

This is excellent. I can feel those cups in my hand as I'm sitting here. What an aesthetic they had back in the day...
