    6 Old-School Lunch Snacks that Need to Make a Come Back

    I went to a birthday party the other day, and one of the parents whipped out a cooler filled with icy cold Capri Suns, and it occurred to me that I haven't had a pouch drink in literally decades. My poor daughter didn't even know how to put the straw in. What else, I wondered, has she been missing? Oddly, in an age when more snacks seem available and served constantly, parents have simultaneously sucked the joy out of snack time. The party got me thinking of my favorite childhood snacks, the ones that parents nowadays have declared verboten. If it's time for a crap food comeback, here's my top 6 old school snacks. - By Mike Adamick

      At the birthday party, a couple kids turned up their granola eating noses at the pouch sugar, while the adults huddled around the ice chest like it was opening day at the new methadone clinic. Three cheers for old school!
