As I was combing through The Onion online, I came across a list of junk food they compiled. Given that it is The Onion, I at first thought it was hoax.  But no, their “Criterion Collection of junk food: 19 snacks and sodas we wish were still on the market” is true.  Of them, I only know Hershey’s Cookies and Cream chocolate bar.  The rest are from the 70s to mid 80s.  There are even some Youtube videos of old commercials!

Can’t really think of any snack I really miss.  When I was younger I had a hankering for MoonPies, but I am pretty sure I have seen them off and on.  What other junk food staples are missed?
