This Weekend in 'New York Times' Food News
Pittsburgh is spelled with an H.
TGI Fridays is making the Tato Skins these days:

For some reason, I can get them at the gas station, but not at the grocery store...
I would like to see Burger King bring back those mini cheeseburgers. It must have been in the mid-80's. There were three or four little cheeseburgers per package. And as we all know: miniature == awesome!
It's spelled with an H and the H stands for "hip," says the New York Times!
I love my fair city of Pittsburgh!
@mrecord: indeed it is. The spelling has been corrected.
Anybody remember Sprinkle Spangles? Anybody? It was a cereal made of star shapes, sprinkles and lots of sugar. Beautiful rocket fuel.
I just found some cookies that are a lot like Magic Middles at a truck stop in Italy. They're called Grisbi. Google them online.
Nabisco chipsters and a glass of chocolate milk made with PDQ.........yummm.....and then for dessert, maybe a Milkshake candy bar.
Does anyone remember the little potato chips that came in a box? They looked like little uninflated balloons. They were really crispy, and it seems like there was a hot air balloon on the box. They were always near the Bugles. They kind of tasted like Munchos. I have been thinking about these for years.
Had to join up just to add this comment: I totally miss Fizzies, the fruity tablets that you dropped in cold water to make instant carbonated beverages. The chemists couldn't get it to work or taste quite the same after cyclamates were banned in 1969. Although is supposedly reformulated good as new in 2006. http://www.oldtimecandy.com/fizzies.htm

Sunshine Hydroxy Cookies! They were much better than Oreos for me. Well, OK ... maybe my palate has changed, and but now I will never know. I would still love to get my hands on some of those cookies. I haven't been able to find them in eons. Probably too many dreaded trans-fats. Such a bummer ...
I must admit that i remeber almost all of these foods, but honestly don't miss any of them! Charlie Chips in the can delivered to your front door was THE BEST. Thye may be available some places, but they are definitely not the same chip. they are not any good anymore. That is my reminiscence.
