30 Years Ago Chinese Snacks: Betting on 100 Bags of Chili Strips Means You're at Least a ‘Grandpa Generation’
30 years ago Chinese snacks, betting 100 bags of chili strips, eating all of them means you're at least a 'grandpa generation'. Recently, I always think of my childhood, one after another scenes flash in my mind, and Grandma teaching me to sing nursery rhymes – walking on the small road in the countryside, old cows returning home are my companions. Blue sky paired with the sunset on my chest, the colorful clouds are the clothes of the sunset. Suddenly realized, 80s babies are no longer young, childhood friends have been separated for many years, and childhood snacks have disappeared for a large part.
Back then, we didn't have as much pocket money as children today, buying a snack was a pretty difficult thing. I remember once I only had two cents, I could only buy a piece of soda candy and a piece of space bean, still very happy. Today, let's reminisce about classic childhood snacks with Qi Ge, and see if you remember their names and flavors!
Little Crappie Crackers
This Little Crappie Crackers was really super popular at the time. I bought one every day, first smash the crackers, then sprinkle with seasoning, crispy and delicious, I secretly ate it during class too. Each pack of Little Crappie Crackers also came with a card, like the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin, but I always got repeated cards. To collect the cards, I even pestered Grandma, and she bought me two boxes for me, thinking about it, grandparents are so spoiled by their grandchildren.
Big Bubble Gum
Although it's still sold in supermarkets, I always feel that the taste is not the same, and I can't feel the same as when I was a child. It used to be only red and orange packaging, strawberry flavor and orange flavor, I especially loved orange flavor, fragrant and not greasy, and could blow bubbles with it, how nostalgic those simple and happy times were! Later it was upgraded to Big Roll, quite expensive, costing several yuan, feeling like a 'rich man' when blowing it, 'click, click'.
Jump Jellies
Do you remember the jelly granules making 'pop, pop' sound on your tongue? It swept the floor of my era, in fact, it was invented in 1974 in the United States, I didn't realize it was actually compressed with carbon dioxide in sugar, when the sugar dissolves, the carbon dioxide will come out, so it 'jumps', don't you think it's very funny at that time?
Honey Peach
The original copy is gone, only the small spoon remains.
I always bought a bag of Honey Peach when I got off school. Inside the bag was mostly Monkey King, digging a spoonful, sour and sweet, very delicious. By the way, there is another one that seems to be called sour plum powder too, also in small bags, with a small spoon, the taste is more concentrated, but I don't know why it didn't sell as many Honey Peach at that time. Really full of memories!
Milk Peach
When I was a child, Milk Peach was eaten in my family, about one or two barrels, every time I drank Milk Peach was after I had a cold, my mother would only make a bowl for me. Sweet and sweet, how good it is! At that time, milk was rarely drunk, Milk Peach is particularly fragrant, not comparable to the flavor of modern edible fragrance, paired with 'milk' processed with fresh milk, sweet and fragrant, the memory is very deep, and I won't have such a feeling in the future.
