Do you like the food that was most popular the year you were born?

[fancysfolly]

I remember the first time I had pizza. An Italian family, sometime in the fifties, moved to our town and opened an Italian restaurant. In those times this seemed very exotic. Many years have come and gone and I believe that restaurant is still open. Run by the great grandson of the original couple. They were such a nice family. I’m sure they still are. Their pizza was the best I’ve ever had

[bearonaromp]

Oh the restaurants and their recipes that were but are no more: Shakey's Pizza, A & W Root Beer, Bob's Big Boy, Sir George's- this episode of Mashed makes me cry!

Stouffer’s Tuna Noodle Casserole always takes you back.

[revondacolbert]

Quiche was popular during my day. Mom made it for us. We were familiar with the ingredients, and loved it!
Regarding carrot cake: Mom often made it, and it was DELICIOUS!

10:20 minor correction, it was Nature Valley not Natural Valley. Interesting video though.

[brianmoody]

Pizza was the one for me, and the smoothie was at a birthday, blackened foods is great., sloppy joes, is tops.

[Lady_Chalk]

ooo 1984: Crème Brulé!
And 1981 Tiramisu for my husband
hell yes desserts

[Lady_Chalk]

between 2000 and 2005 and really longer than that. The CUPCAKE attacks.

[johnsheetz]

I'm pretty sure it's cocaine. I was born in 77

[josephkim]

cupcakes? Im 22 and i dont think i enjoy sweet stuff that much...

[libbyjameswatt]

As a Brit, calling pasta “noodles” is awfully baffling

[mattdavidson]

- "this item was invented in New York"
- "versions of it existed hundreds of years ago in Europe"

The word is "popularised"

[Lady_Chalk]

i haven't had sloppy joes from my mom in YEARS. idk if my sisters's miss it as much as me.
(I wouldn't have it on a bun, just on the plate, with a side of mac n cheese)

[neitajames]

Interesting. We didn't do a lot of fast food. My mom and dad both cooked. Fresh fish every week. Sure Bologna and can tuna was around. The real Bologna, the kind with the red wrapper and you had your butcher cut. My mom made her own cakes, cookies and pies. My first pizza was just crust tomato sauce and cheese. Nothing fancy. If we had fast food it might been chicken with sides. Those hams that piggly wiggly did with pineapples and cherry. They cooked them in the store. They were good. It wasn't till we was teenagers that we bought fast food. Or made our own sandwhiches. My father bought ground beef, made us burgers, hed make them up, pat them out between wax paper and freeze them. When we got home from high school, we'd cook our own. Nobody started a fire.😁. My mom was a good cook. Only time we ate out was mothers day, or fathers day. My father also raised hogs, we had a garden. It was fresh or frozen. Every blue moon canned goods. It was nice seeing this video.👍💯%❤👏👏👏. Nj.

[jamesdante]

Man wtf really it had to be ranch dressing

[revondacolbert]

It was Nature Valley, not "Natural Valley." When this is your claim to fame, the least you can do is get it right

[charlie]

I loved tuna noodle. My mom made some great stuff. I ate sloppy Joes in the 60. Who the hell wrote this.

[AustinthGenTexan]

The narrator doesn't seem to know the difference between "notoriety" and "fame"... 😾

[hellhound]

I hate ranch dressing, if I wanted to taste something that reminds me of vomit I'd still drink
