By Tanya
Remember the excitement you would feel when you knew you were going to go to ShowBiz Pizza Place? Try and remember that level of happiness that you would experience. It was almost too much, right?

10 Discontinued Fast Food Items We Truly Wish We Could Still Order

By Tanya
Going to get fast food was a treat that was saved for a special occasion. It wasn't every day that we would be allowed to head on out to McDonald's or Wendy's, but when we did, it was the best. We'd destroy a Happy Meal quicker than our parents could understand, and somehow we would still have the energy to go play in a Play Place.The thing is, there were a lot of foods over the years that came around into the fast food world that didn't last as long as others. Sure, you can still go get a

By Tanya
Breakfast time is always a pretty exciting part of the day. I mean, at least it is when you're a kid. When you're an adult it means it's time to head out to work, but for kids it's a bit different. When you're young, you have very few responsibilities. Sure, you have to go to school, but it's not really the biggest deal.

It was always so hard to roll out of bed, get to school, and try to stay awake during morning classes. But there was always one thing keeping us going through the lessons and work: lunchtime.

Halloween trade-off.Ah November 1st, National Candy Trade-Off Day. This was the one day a year that every kid would come to school with a lunch box full of candy, and whatever your mom packed you underneath it, which did not matter.

10 Foods We Spat Out Every Time We Tried Them As Kids

By Moojan
Most kids are picky eaters, even if they don't think they are. The reason for this was because we always ate foods that we liked, and avoided everything that made us want to spit it out. Whether we love the foods we hated is irrelevant, let's just take a look back at some of the foods we hated with a burning passion. They may have touched our lips or accidentally slipped into our stomachs, but these foods were on the "Never Try Again" list for years! 1.
