I can barely vote for this. I exclusively like all sodas except Coke Zero and any forms of it, Diet Sierra Mist and Sprite. I specifically prefer caffeine and if you look at the bottom of the Sunkist label, you’ll see that it has 27 mg of caffeine per 8 fl oz.

Ugh, Fruit Roll Ups. Gushers and Fruit By The Foot are such better treats.

I always liked the idea of fruit leather, which the Fruit Roll seems much more like, but every time I’ve tried any kind of fruit leather, the taste has always kind of put me off.

I loved the multi-colored fruit roll-ups with cut-outs The ones that claim are more natural or something always taste like raisins and as you’ve written, spit out.

Oh and I think fruit by the foots are a tad less sweet. But there probably isn’t a ’second rate’ version of that XD

I used to LOVE fruit roll-ups when I was little. I would ball it up and stuff it all in my mouth at once, and then nearly choke to death. But god I loved them.
Makes me want to go out and buy them for nostalgia’s sake.

I looked on Kellogg’s site and according to their timeline Tony the Tiger has always been the mascot (since 1952!) and was even on the first box.

That dollar store Frosted Flakes box is a total rip-off in the guise of retro!

So is this an uncle toby’s roll up? I couldn’t see the brand name. I’ve never actually had one but they are popular in kids lunches in Oz.

haha I thought these were aimed at kids (because I was a fan of them and occasionally took to school for..well, lunch :p ).

I’ve only tried Lunchables, but totally would’ve gone for the Lunchmakers, because of the Butterfinger, lol..

Comment on Cool Ranch vs Chillin’ Ranch by Alana

I moved to the UK and the one thing that still annoys me here is that the Cool Ranch Doritos are called “Cool Original” because people here didn’t know what ranch dressing was at the time. They have ranch dressing here now, and Cool Ranch IS NOT the “original” Doritos flavor. That would be nacho cheese, which they still call Nacho Cheese. Anyway, I love Doritos and I hate the British.

Comment on Goldfish vs …Whales? by FoolProof

I’m a Whale man, m’self. They’ve grown on me over time. Initially I just got them because they are way cheaper than Cheez-its and I’ve got a two box a week habit. I didn’t think they were that great at first but now I actually like them and crave them. Now it’s 2x (16oz)boxes of Whales per week!
