Have a Nostalgic Sugar Rush with These 38 Childhood Snacks

You might have forgotten about these snacks, but your taste buds definitely haven't! Every time I put together one of these 'childhood snacks' listicles, I swear I can taste them—some fondly, some… less so. It's like a memory-triggering sugar rush.

Take Turtle Pies, for example. I don't know if I had already aged out of that level of sugar overload when the '90s rolled around, but these things were foul. And I'm not just talking about their appearance (which, let's be honest, looked like they came straight from the wrong end of a Ninja Turtle). The taste? One bite in, and I was immediately out. Spat it right back out. My friend, though? He loved them. Could eat ten in a row without hesitation. Gross.

But that's the magic of childhood snacks—what was disgusting to one of us was absolute gold to another. Whether you were all about Dunkaroos, Warheads, Fruit Roll-Ups, or those weirdly addictive Astro Pops, this list is here to send you straight back to the snack aisle of your youth. Prepare for a nostalgia trip loaded with sugar, artificial flavors, and the unmistakable taste of simpler times.
