7 Dishes ’90s Kids Should Try Again

90s-kids

As we ’90s kids grow, some things remain timeless. This especially includes our undying affection for the nostalgic foods of our childhood. From indulgent ice cream cakes to beloved junk food, the excitement never fades! For me, in my 30s, I still enjoy indulging in unhealthier meals. Give me all the ice cream sandwiches, chicken nuggets, and mini chicken burgers!

What we eat, how frequently we eat, and our childhood eating habits can directly impact our food preferences and eating patterns as adults. Check out the top 10 childhood meals that we 90s kids fondly remember (and should try today):

1. Spicy Chicken Nuggets

Get ready to tantalize your taste buds with these spicy ones! Whether you were an adventurous kid or an adult craving something delicious, these nuggets always hit the spot. Pair them with your favorite dipping sauce, classic ketchup, or tangy sweet and sour, and prepare for a culinary adventure. After that, I always seemed to have a Nutri Gran after the fact. 

2. Grilled Cheese 

When I was a kid, I loved macaroni and cheese. I experimented with different ways of making it in the microwave or stove. There’s something so satisfying about the cheesy goodness, especially when paired with a generous ketchup squeeze. Of course, you risk accidentally burning it, but that adds to the excitement! No matter how It makes it, I always

enjoy eating it in the same nostalgic way.

3. Bagel Bites

They only take about 20 minutes to make, but you must wait for it to cool down. And, if you’re like me, maybe you’ll be tempted to eat four or five! Bagel bites are adventures in comfort and convenience. And adding something a little more adult, like a salad, works like magic.

4. Pizza Pockets

For nearly a decade, I’ve honed my skills as a quick and easy introvert chef. And my go-to meals are pizza pockets. They are packed with extra cheese, bacon bits, and meatballs. They’re my ultimate independent microwaved delight, always delicious for the weekend or regular weekday. After all, who doesn’t crave some good food?

5. Chocolate Chip Cookies

After enjoying a satisfying lunch at school, the real fun began. As an adult, you can still share your favorite chocolate chip cookies with friends – or keep them all to yourself. Either way, they give you the perfect time to catch up on your favorite shows like “Pepper Ann” and “The Proud Family” while belting out the iconic theme songs. And let’s be honest: those cookies are the ultimate midnight comfort food. I’m not ashamed to admit it!

6. Kool-Aid Jammers

Kool-Aid may not have created a remarkably healthy beverage, but we widely enjoyed them, especially during the summer, or paired with a delicious snack. I particularly like the frozen version of these drinks, which are delightful, especially when served in pairs. Also, they always leave behind a distinctly colored tongue, which adds to the experience. After all that, try to mix them with the creamè savers; they taste like cheesecake bites!

7. Toaster Strudel

You missed out if you didn’t experience the joy of toaster strudels as a 90s kid! They weren’t just quick breakfast before school – they were special treats for any time of day. These pastries come in many irresistible flavors, especially the Strawberry, Cream Cheese & Strawberry, and Apple flavors. Don’t forget the sauce; I am and will continue to be sneakily invested. 

Growing up in the ’90s was a particular time, and those who experienced it often look back fondly. Indeed, nostalgia can sometimes paint things in a rosier light than they deserve, but let’s be real: we ’90s kids had some great stuff back then. I would even go as far as to say that these snacks played crucial roles in shaping our childhoods, creating shared memories that we still cherish today.
