Food of the Seventies

The food in this section are not STRICTLY 70s only food. We have food that were widely available for purchase DURING the 70s. This section was recently redesigned, so if you have any problems please let ChuckyG know.

Are you an 70s food expert or just totally baffled by a leftover 70s food item in your possession? We have a page for Unknown 70s Food when you can send in your pictures, or help others identify their unknown food items.

I also have a page about this for the 80s and 90s.

I'm looking for them now. I lived in NY during 1980's and was shocked to find them in a bodega in the Bx. I used to buy them in my Catholic grammar school in Manhattan for a penny. Anyway, whenI was pregnant in the 80s, a girlfriend bought me 2 boxes from the bodega when I told her that I had seen them there and was urging some more. GB her... but I've never found them again. 😒 Wish I did because they weren't as sour as the jolly ranchers. Being a stick I recall sucking the tips so long it would become so pointy one could pierce skin with it. lololol
