The Northeastern people born in the 1980s had very poor families when they were young.

I have never eaten any snacks. I have a cherry tree at home. It is not the big cherry now, but a very small one, because cherries are the earliest to mature among all fruits. I go to see it every day. , looking forward to blossoming and bearing fruit. Sometimes I secretly pick it off and eat it just after it turns a little red. It’s so sour that I can’t stand it anymore. Still want to eat one. Ha ha.

There is also sweet stalk, which some people may not know, similar to sorghum. Extremely sweet. When I was a child, I often scratched my hands when eating this food, and the corners of my mouth were also scratched in bad weather. I always thought it tasted better than sugar cane. So I basically don’t eat sugar cane. Nowadays, it is rare in rural areas. The taste of childhood is worth recalling.

Snowman ice cream, we called this ice cream "Doll's Head" when we were children. When I was 6 years old, my father took me to the county town and bought me one. I went home and showed off to my sister for a long time. Selling it for 5 cents a piece was too extravagant. Several years later, I had a second one at the house of a relatively wealthy classmate of mine. I remember it vividly.

Popcorn is not sold, so you have to wait for the popcorn popper to come. In winter, it will appear in the villages and alleys from time to time. When the corn comes down, I will peel a few kilograms myself and put it outside to dry. I am afraid of rain, and sometimes I have to put it on the kang to dry. It was just for the popcorn. At that time, you had to queue up to pop the popcorn, and you would be anxious if you got to the back of the queue. If you pay an extra 5 cents, you can put in a few saccharin grains. Even saccharin is considered a luxury. You have to prepare your own firewood. I have been relying on this popcorn to beat my teeth all winter.

Canned yellow peaches. At that time, you didn’t need to take medicine when you were sick. You had to keep a box of cans, and you had to keep the canned water and drink it over several days. I don’t know how many times I have to be sick before I can buy a can. At that time, anyone with a half-filled can on the window sill would be envied if there were a few empty cans nearby. . . .

Malt milk and sherbet, many people have never heard of these things. Anyway, my mother bought me a box of malted milk, but sherbet was expensive. I often chew it dry secretly, it's so sweet.

Huafeng instant noodles, when I was in elementary school, my parents bought goods for others, so my family moved to a small town and lived there for half a year. My parents left early and came back late. My sister was in the third grade of elementary school and she brought her own food at noon. No one takes me, so I stay at home alone. My mother left me Huafeng Instant Noodles, and then boiled a pot of water for me. One bag of noodles was enough for me to eat three lunches. I broke off a small piece and put it in a tea jar, poured water and put the lid on, and then after a few minutes You can drink it together into your stomach. I didn’t let go of the training because I didn’t know how much to put in. At that time, a bag of instant noodles cost 30 cents.

When my sister goes on holiday, she can eat Huafeng with seasoning flavor at noon. Two teapots and a pot of boiling water.

Anyway, when I was a child, everything tasted delicious, and even the bitter things I ate didn’t feel bitter. When I got older, I didn’t know what tasted delicious. Many delicacies from mountains and seas were not as good as the instant noodles in a tea vat. Even if I felt sad, I might as well let myself eat them. These hardships come quickly.

When I was a kid, the various small shops near campus were a must-go place every day. The children were crowded on three floors inside and three outside, struggling to squeeze in just for the snacks they wanted to buy. Supervision on campus is very strict, and luxury food at the top level is basically far away from my brother’s generation. Today let’s take a good look back at the various snacks that accompanied me in my childhood!

The sugar at that time was so sweet! And it’s really good to have some of it, and the packaging isn’t as exquisite as it is now, but every time I see pictures like this, I always swallow my saliva without realizing it. There are also half of these fruit candies. You can buy many pieces for a dime, almost a penny a piece. Although there are many types of candies now, the taste of the past can no longer be found!

Many people born in the 1990s and 2000s don’t know how hard it was for us at that time. Nowadays, all kinds of milk powder are ready as soon as the children are born, but at that time we only had malted milk. And it’s not just for children. Sometimes I’ll take it with me when visiting relatives or when my friends are sick! I believe that many of my friends at that time had done something like this, that is, when their parents were not paying attention, they secretly used a spoon to dig out the dried food and eat it dry, because this way the taste was richer and better than drinking it soaked in water. It’s not like today’s children who have to chase after them to eat!

Recall the classic taste of childhood. Traditional wine-centered chocolate, also called wine-centered candy, has only a very thin layer of chocolate, and inside is wine wrapped in a crystal layer of white sugar, which is sweet and delicious.

The sweet and crunchy twists are really the snacks that I look forward to eating most when I am a child. When I get them, I am reluctant to eat them. I put them in my mouth and slowly lick them until my parents take a stick. I hurriedly ate it after chasing after it~

Maltose is an authentic Jiangnan traditional delicacy that has no additives. When I was a child, I often saw hawkers carrying burdens and ringing bells, selling through the streets. , just ask your parents for a few dollars, and you can buy it. It’s fragrant, sweet, and can stick to your teeth. It’s full of memories!

Some of this kind of bubble gum has sour powder inside. A dime a piece.

Candy that can whistle~ Every time you put it in your mouth and blow it, saliva will come out.

Ring candy~ I remember that time when my mother took me home, I was sitting on the back of the bicycle with a ring candy on my hand, licking it around~~ happy.

Post some photos to reminisce

7080 Do you still remember this in the fields when you were a child?

Watching other children eating, you don’t get to eat. I didn't eat it at that time, and I felt like a cat was scratching my head. I could only understand that I was so greedy. Without pocket money, we were basically self-reliant and did things by ourselves when we were young. There is no ladder to the sky and no door to the earth. As long as I hear that there is delicious food somewhere, I will never wait until tomorrow to eat it. The sweet, sour, bitter and spicy taste of it still comes to mind from time to time. The taste will be missed, which reminds us of the beautiful and unforgettable childhood that we have lost. If you ask where to find the taste of childhood, there will be a close friend under the wild fruit tree. (I feel like I’m talking about my heart, so I’ll pay attention to @Chicken eats bugs and eats vegetables.)

Located in Baoding, Hebei Province, my pocket money was very little when I was a child. But my parents would give me an allowance of one or two yuan every day, and then I would secretly save it myself. The happiest thing every day is to go to the canteen next to the school after school to buy your favorite snacks.

Watermelon bubble gum, I remember it was ten cents each at that time. It was very hard when I first ate it, but it softened after chewing for a while. It was very sweet. I like to eat the green one best.

Diamond ring candy, I remember that this kind of candy was relatively expensive when I was a kid. You could wear it on your hand and eat it. It was fun and satiated. Girls liked it more at that time.

Nanjing Salted Duck, this is simply a standard dish for boys! Almost every boy will go to the small shop to buy a pack of Nanjing salted duck before going home for dinner at noon. While eating, I chatted and laughed with my classmates and went home.

Almost all boys and girls like to eat Malice. I still remember that when I was a child, my wife caught me secretly eating Malice and asked me what I was eating. I lied and said that I was sick and these were Chinese medicine pills that my mother bought for me. Hahahahaha, the teacher finally found out and was criticized.

As a child born in the 1980s, my most vivid memory is Huafeng instant noodles. At that time, my mother wanted convenience, so my breakfast and even dinner were Huafeng instant noodles. Sometimes I ate them soaked, sometimes boiled, and sometimes Chewing it dry, I thought it was very delicious. There is also a big roll of bubble gum, and I compete with my classmates to see whose bubble gum is longer. Another time I accidentally bought a bag of angel potato chips, which were spicy. I thought they were super delicious, and they have since become my new favorite.

First of all, I think the first place should be fried shrimp crackers and halva (especially shrimp candy), because fried shrimp crackers and halva can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year. I bought a box of shrimp crackers when my house ran out of oil a few years ago. Deep-fried in oil, it becomes colorful, crunchy, and has the umami flavor of shrimp. The most important thing is that this tube is enough and unrestricted, so you can eat it.

At that time, when most of the candies were hard candies, halva was definitely a high-end product. Normally during the Chinese New Year, families would just buy a few pieces to cover their appearance. When the new year is almost over, the children can take it and enjoy the crispy and crumbly feeling. As for the later wine-filled chocolates and white rabbit toffee, for me, they were past the age of being greedy for sweets.

Secondly, I have to say Huafeng Yi Mian. I forgot how much it cost. At that time, it usually took a long time to save pocket money to buy a pack. The instant noodles you buy are usually crushed in half, sprinkled with seasoning packets, and eaten dry. Eat the other half soaked. My biggest wish is to have money that day and buy two bags, one to eat dry and one to soak.

Third, big bubble gum, five points
