I grew up in New England, and when I ordered chicken wings at a Chinese Takeout place, I would get the crispy ones with all 3 parts attached. When I moved down here to Texas, I tried ordering chicken wings and got these wet, nasty, excuses for wings. They were separated like Buffalo wings and were coated in this nasty sauce that tasted like they were MSG flavored. Does anyone know how to make the wings I grew up ordering? PLEEASE! I will love you forever!

@mepm231 lol..sooo true
I don't know if it's my tastebuds or if they changed the recipes..but I wish they would make Funyuns and Strawberry shortcake ice cream bars the way they used to. Funyuns used to be less salty and those bars used to have more tart ice cream and more crunchies on the outside. I don't know if they're still around..but Homeboy chips were awesome.
I make hundreds of hamburgers on a daily basis. WORD
I'm 19 and the crap they used to give us was nearly inedible. I lived in a very ghetto, urban city in Connecticut (yea that sounds weird). I remember this one time when we got letters from the district saying that the trucks that brought that crap were infested with mice. yuck. And our lunch ladies were MEAN. If we got to loud, they would bang a bunch of plastic trays on the table to quiet us down. Haha then they would make us clean up and scrub the tables..even though it was their job to do it.
Amy's has great food and great customer service. and Trader Joe's is awesome..I'm just wishing that they would open one in Texas =(
I sent some homemade cookies in my bfs suitcase from Houston to NY and they opened the container, crushed every single cookie, and closed the container. It was in a styrofoam container and the container was fine.
yummm hot fries. I always wondered is the guy on the hot fries package the same guy in the Home Depot store? Can someone please tell me this? lol
Duchess Chicken Parm has been a favorite since I was little. My family used to order a bucket of KFC and we would eat it with rice and sriracha mixed with ketchup.
Thanks to Martha Stewart's Living, I learned that quartered green tomatoes are perfect for pickling in left over pickle juice. Yum!
i love pickle juice, probably because I have hypothyroidism and addison's disease. But I love salty things. The pickle juice martini is like a really good dirty martini (which is usually just olive juice and either gin or vodka). I've seen little cans of pickle juice in the supermarket but have yet to try it.
You can go to fizzies.com and order any flavor you like! My favorite is cherry or grape. By the case for $12 or 15 - I can't remember. But what I miss the most are those giant Charms lollipops - I was proposed to with a handful of Charms Cherry because I was always seen with one stuck in my mouth! I was in the Army and they were at the ice cream store on base and one day an officer said I should at least take the sucker out of my mouth with I salute!
I LOVED ninja turtle pudding pies!!! and gadorade gum, jello pudding pops, Mcdonalds FRIED apple pies, Bonkers candy, Ecto cooler, grasshopper cookies, ... i wish i could remember more!!!
We run a Girls Softball League Concession Stand and sell the clausen pickles, but also we freeze the juice in sauce cups and the kids go NUTS over Picklecicles!!! In 3 weeks time we have gone thru over 150 picklecicles. Now if we can just get them to buy the pickles, so we can buy more juice!!! We need to figure out how to make homemade pickle juice??
Let's see here, KFC's barbeque chicken, Hollywood candy bars, Mounds candy bars,and Cherry Cooler cookies.
