Blast from the past

While I was talking with my dad the other night he asked me if I have had any other interesting cravings. I can't really say that I have, though I think that I have been doing some reminiscing on my own childhood which has led to a slight craving for Sunkist Fun Fruits. You know, those rabbit poo shaped gummy fruit snacks from the 80s? I realize that they still make various incarnations of fruit snacks to this day, but they just won't do. If I'm going to have them, they have to be grape flavored and they have to be tiny pellet shaped. So, I guess I'm out of luck for now.

What will be next, a craving for my beloved Ecto-Cooler? Man, oh man, did Mike and I love this stuff. It was a vital part of any road trip. We made sure to have plenty packed in the cooler. While searching for this image I found an interesting article about the disappearance of Ecto-Cooler from the market only for it to re-emerge under a different flavor name. So, I guess I'll be OK if the sudden urge comes along. Thank God! It is a shame that they aren't using lovable Slimer to do their marketing anymore, though.
