We had specific snacks that make me smile whenever I think of them, though!!</p> <p>My mom always made stovetop popcorn, so that's what I make. I never buy microwave popcorn.</p> <p>My dad always snacked on asiago cheese &amp; we called it "stinky cheese" but LOVED it. We still eat it with him!! Chloe likes it too ;)</p> <p>Ritz crackers or saltines with cream cheese. I made these the other day for Lo and my husband looked at me like I had three heads. Then he tried one &amp; ate the whole sleeve LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-827956 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 19:07:09 +0000 kjpugs 827956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: LOL!!! It's probably just as bad, I can't judge!!! I wonder if our kids in 20 years will be like "they used to give me these weird bento boxes now I can't eat any food in small pieces" hahahahaha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-827947 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 19:04:14 +0000 Cara M. 17 827947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cream cheese and jelly sandwiches. And bologna sandwiches. What was my mom thinking? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-827941 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 19:01:18 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 827941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjpugs: I don't like milk AT ALL so I'm super grossed out. But you're probably like "omg she eats butter soup?!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-827930 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 18:51:45 +0000 kjpugs 827930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: LOL yep it was that just... with milk poured on it. It was so NORMAL then and now I'm like, WTF was I eating and WHAT WAS MY MOM THINKING!!!??!?! It's horrifying really. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-827929 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 18:50:40 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 827929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjpugs: pastina with milk?! I've never heard of that recipe before! </p> <p>We're Italian &amp; our recipe is water, butter and pastina. I still make it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-827923 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 18:47:01 +0000 Meridian 827923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: I loooove Cinnabons!!</p> <p>I used to love Chef Boyardee beefaroni. I haven't had one in 20+ years and have no desire to anymore! Also, I liked instant mashed potatoes (just add water!) mixed with ketchup, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826201 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 08:47:53 +0000 Ra 826201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: Yes! Kid Cuisine! I LOVED them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826195 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 08:44:22 +0000 Caly 826195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG. Just reading this is making me on the verge of losing my cookies. </p> <p>Seafood. It was fine growing up, now, the smell makes me sick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826190 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 08:39:45 +0000 MsLipGloss 826190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mashed potatoes . . . I ate lots of them as a baby, but I won't touch them now! (I just can't deal with the texture!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826146 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 08:25:32 +0000 kjpugs 826146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pastina! We used to eat pastina (tiny pasta- maybe a little bigger than cous cous but true pasta) with milk in it. I KNOW. I ate that stuff UP as a kid and I tried pastina recently for nostalgia purposes- without milk because, GAG- and I just couldn't do it. So gross! I think it's an old Italian thing which is weird because my mom is Irish, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826077 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 07:44:53 +0000 Pepper 826077@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom used to buy pimento loaf, and I'd have it for lunch sometimes... No way would I eat that now!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826073 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 07:42:13 +0000 Espion 826073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crumbs: How funny, I'm the complete opposite! I've never really liked eggs growing up and I *refused* to eat fried eggs/runny eggs. Now poached or sunny-side up eggs are the only way I'll eat them (as long as the whites are fully cooked). </p> <p>So weird how adult tastes change. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826054 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 07:29:50 +0000 MediaNaranja 826054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That was my favorite sandwich to take for lunch growing up. Now the thought of a soggy bologna sandwich is so gross! Yuck! </p> <p>My typical lunch was a soggy bologna sandwich, hi-c juice box, an apple (usually left untouched, ha), and a little debbie snack. Now the apple is the only thing I would eat in that lunch :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826053 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 07:29:50 +0000 Anagram 826053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea why, but as a kid, I LOVED these frozen yam patties they would serve at the daycare my parents owned. They were these weird, totally circular patties and the daycare cook would put butter and two marshmallows on top of each one, and I thought it was like.....dessert as a vegetable. I would eat mine and all the other kids' who didn't eat their own.</p> <p>So gross!!!! </p> [attach=2976/13/mnthdq.332x224.yam-patties.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-826050 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 07:20:44 +0000 rachiecakes 826050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cinnabon! I worked in the mall as a teen and ate one every day I worked.

Nope, no way I could eat those now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825972 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 04:10:18 +0000 SugarplumsMom 825972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Runny eggs. Apparently, it was my fave thing for breakfast. I can't stand eggs cooked any other way but over hard or scrambled and it can't be runny at all. Eating eggs sunny side up just repulses me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825971 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 03:32:00 +0000 cascademom 825971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: I still get Hi-C orange at McD's. it makes me miss ecto-cooler so much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825962 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 02:17:46 +0000 Espion 825962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Frosted Flakes - a giant bowl of crispy sugar!

Sad, sad me :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825936 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 00:26:08 +0000 DigAPony 825936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>American cheese (like Kraft singles), Lunchables, and Totinos pizza. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825930 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 00:09:43 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 825930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@owlmom: me too!! i was obsessed with them as a kid and used to steal them out of my earthquake packs. the thought of eating them grosses me out now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825928 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 00:07:28 +0000 MrsScallop 825928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@owlmom: Oh man, I loved those things when I was young! </p> <p>Most sweet things really. I have never been too into sweets, but as I have aged, I just can't handle it. A single hershey's kiss can make me feel sick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825925 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 23:53:17 +0000 owlmom 825925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to eat vienna sausages straight out of the can. They completely gross me out now - I can't believe my mom let me eat them. Now I think they look like tiny penises . So disgusting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825918 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 23:47:16 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 825918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Maysprout: same here!!! I can't eat bologna or white bread or mayo anymore. Eww. I had a slice of American cheese on mine though (which come to think of it, I haven't had that in awhile either). </p> <p>Lunchables<br /> Pop-tarts<br /> Koolaid (seriously? It has a cup or two of sugar in each pitcher)</p> <p>I still eat junk food but those are things I literally can't bring to my lips anymore. They used to be my FAVORITE things in the universe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-foods-you-ate-as-a-child-you-couldnt-handle-now#post-825864 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 22:42:49 +0000 Mrs. Twine 825864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Maysprout; I'm not really sure what it is, honestly. As a kid, the repressed Catholic in me was drawn to the little cavorting red devil on the side of the can. And, okay, probably also to the insanely high sodium content. I remember it being yummy, and also kinda repulsive. </p>
