The tweet that received almost 33k likes was filled with comments where people shared names of various foods together with their childhood memories. The author of the tweet also revealed what was that one thing he thought to be special. It tuned out to be a Toblerone chocolate bar. He also specified that these “specialty foods” were common for those who were kids from the late 80s until the mid-90s.
What is fun to notice is that a lot of the foods that people were mentioned as being “fancy” and rare at their table, usually only when there was a celebration or someone special coming over, now can be found at a low price (if found at all). Mint chocolates “After Eight”, “Ferrero Rocher” candies, various biscuits and so much more of various sweets were some of the most common examples of what people found to be rare and expensive, but now it can be found in every store.
Besides various food, people also mentioned things such as plastic cup dispensers and drinks such as soda or wine coolers. What is something that you found to be special and rare when you were a kid only to find out that it wasn’t so “fancy” when you became an adult?
