Childhood snacks, most notably fruit candies and vegetarian biscuits, disappeared after the early 1980s. The quality of later sugars and pastries never reached that quality again. In addition to agricultural and sideline products, other snacks include wild fruits. However, with the emergence of individual economy, they have either lost their original flavor or been over-exploited and destroyed, and have almost become extinct. In the years when those snacks existed, not only were the social atmosphere pure, the social environment good and safe, but the interpersonal relationships were harmonious, friendly, loving, warm and cordial. The natural environment is also relaxed and beautiful. Every spring and summer, the fields are filled with blooming flowers, orioles are singing and swallows are dancing, bees are singing, butterflies are shadowing, and birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. The companions carry bags or baskets, and carry bows or crossbows all day long to collect and play in the mountains and fields, and have endless fun. Games and entertainment around the campfire at night. Unfortunately, due to the needs of the collective, I participated in collective management affairs prematurely and rarely had the opportunity to play with my partners. That kind of beautiful society and natural environment is deeply engraved in your memory and will be unforgettable for a lifetime!
I am born in the 1980s, so let me talk about the childhood snacks in my memory.
Rubber band candy, buy 10 for 10 cents, colorful, about one finger So long, sealed in a plastic bag, super delicious.
Sour plum powder is a white powder with a small spoon inside and various small plastic figures of different shapes. It may be the earliest blind box opening,
Big bubble gum, with a Superman on the package. The colors of bubble gum are red, blue, and white. At that time, compared with blowing bubbles, the big one had a small one inside. Again, have you ever played like this?
Huafeng instant noodles cost seventy cents a pack at first. The packaging was a yellow bag with round slices inside, with different zodiac pictures on the slices. Every time we eat this, we It is to collect all twelve zodiac signs.
Another kind of snack is the spicy noodles we make ourselves. The packaging is usually torn off the paper from the homework book, and the dry spicy noodles, salt, and seasoning noodles are mixed together. Sometimes we also add spicy noodles with oil. When I made it, there was oil everywhere, and then I took it to school. After class, I picked a little bit with my fingers and shared it with my classmates. Haha, when I think about it, my childhood was still the most carefree and happiest time in my life. Although I was lacking in material things, my thoughts were simple. .
Mainly because there are too many kinds of snacks on the market now, and businesses are constantly introducing new ones. There are also many choices for children's paper, so many of our previous snacks have been changed. I will share the snacks in my memory.
①Fruit candies
Fruit candies were probably the dream of many children at that time. Although it only costs two cents a piece, it is also a luxury for us. Some people can only eat a few pills during the holidays. Many people may not understand it now, but at that time, many people's family conditions were really not good, and there were even a large number of people who struggled to have food and clothing, let alone have extra money to buy sweets for their children.
②Big Bubble Gum
It was the first time I watched someone blow a big bubble out of the candy while eating it. It felt so magical. Well, to use a modern word, poverty has limited my imagination.
③
Sorbet and ice cream
In the summer at that time, we could only use the empty wine bottles at home to bring a bottle of boiled water or rice soup to school for drinking. If there is a classmate who eats ice cream at school, he is definitely a wealthy person and will be envied by many classmates.
④
Popcorn
At that time, popcorn cooks would only come to the villages during festivals. The scene I was more familiar with was A sealed iron pot was turned on the fire, and when it was almost done, it was blocked with a plastic bag. Then there was a crisp and sweet sound, which was the most attractive sound at the time, followed by a bang. Our cuisine was born. Sweet and crispy, this is my first impression of popcorn. Although they are sold in the streets and alleys now, I can no longer taste the same taste as at that time.
⑤Beef Spinner Cake
This kind of snack is probably not available in many places. It is almost extinct now, and even the picture can’t be found. I just remember that it was extremely hard, crispy, salty and peppery, and chewy. Alas, time is gone and can never be returned, the past can only be recalled. Relive the taste of snacks in memories.
The snack I remember most in my childhood is malted milk. At that time, I was particularly looking forward to visiting relatives and friends during the New Year and holidays. It was very likely that someone would come to my house with malted milk and sit there, so that I could Drinking the steaming, milky malted milk, sometimes I even hope that someone in my family has a headache or brain fever. Malted milk was the nutritional supplement at that time, so that I can drink it too [laughing], when I was a child I'm so greedy. In the era of poverty, there are all kinds of drinks, milk tea and so on. At present, malted milk powder has long disappeared on the market, but the sweetness of malted milk powder will always be engraved in the best memories of my childhood [心][心][心]
At that time, the technology was backward, and many They are all products that are harmful to the human body!
To be honest, the food at that time was really unhealthy. It was low-cost and had a lot of colorants added. Although the food produced now is not very healthy, at least with the development of science and technology, it should be safer than before.
But now I think about the full memories, and I also miss fig snacks, spicy strips, etc.
Strange-flavored candies, a small packet filled with colorful small round beans!
In the 1970s, people’s lives had just begun to improve, but there were very few snacks for children. In my memory, there were transparent hard candies wrapped in various colored papers. I also collected a lot of candy wrappers [cover Face]
We call the ones made from corn paste "candy sticks"; those made from rice grains are made into balls, and we don't know what they are called [呲ya]; figs are individually wrapped in white bags. There were almost no snacks at that time, so I racked my brains to come up with these. People born in the 1970s at the same age, do you remember any of them? Some of the techniques have been lost. If the original craft tools were inspected, the relevant departments would probably consider them unqualified. The old artists didn’t understand marketing, so they gradually disappeared. Some time ago, I saw old fruit candy being sold online and bought one. , there is no original taste at all, and large-scale commercialization has erased the original taste.
In the era of hard life for those born in the 1960s, survival is their greatest wish.
At first I remember fruit candies, which were sold in bulk and cost 1 cent each. I couldn’t afford them and I rarely ate them, but I still remember them fresh.
I remember when I was in primary school, the plums were ripe, and I looked at the trees full of fruit. I thought about picking them and selling them. I carried a basket on my back and went to the street. I printed it with an earthen bowl and paid 5 cents a bowl. It took me a long time. Several people bought it.
When I was in junior high school, I would buy steamed buns to eat when I was hungry at night and exchange them with rice. Because my parents didn’t give much pocket money, I used food stamps to buy rice, and a pound of rice was only 1 cents and 8 cents...
At that time, we were so simple and kind-hearted, and we understood the hard work of our parents in raising children. It’s not easy to prevent parents from exploring more of their hearts.
With the progress of the times, today’s young people dare not spend enough money to buy cars and buy houses in advance.
As the country promulgates more new regulations and companies become less nervous, in the near future, whoever buys more houses reserved for auction will be really worried about them!
