I liked strawberry Pop Tarts a lot better when they were filled with red strawberry-flavored mystery goo, cuz the mystery goo didn't have seeds in it. They need to go back to the seedless mystery goo. gently caress seeds.

But the point was, at the time that was overstatement making fun of rich people being pretentious.
Today, that is just a trip to Whole Foods by a soccer mom in Peoria, Illinois.

I find the history of modern eating legit interesting. What kind of things were on the menu at more upscale restaurants back then?

If you really wanted to impress someone from out of town, you'd take them to The Kahiki. Of course this is America so the location is now a Walgreens and what's left of he company sells frozen dinners. But back in the day, man...back in the day...

Yeah, but do you remember the madness when microwaves really became popular? There were cookbooks for every possible cuisine to be done with the microwave, even milkshakes. I remember begging my mom for some of those so we could try them out. I seem to remember them resembling a poo poo tier frosty but God damnit I had one!

I was a kid in the 80s, but in New Zealand. Pizza Hut was definitely a thing, but it was dine-in and they had a dessert bar and a salad station. I remember having a birthday there in like 87 or 88.
We didn't have a school cafeteria. You could put in a lunch order from a local bakery and on Wednesdays you could order fish'n'chips from the chip shop, but most people brought their own lunches and it was things like sandwiches, granola bars, a yoghurt and a piece of fruit. Cake or cookies if your mum baked that week. We started getting poo poo like roll-ups in the early 90s, I think.

My mum likes to cook and she made a lot of Japanese stuff, cause my dad worked in Japan a lot so they were familiar with the food, but most people ate meat & 3 veg of some sort for dinner.
