12 Irresistible Snacks You Would Have Loved As A 90s Kid!

90s kids had it good: sure we didn’t have iPads to pass the time, but when it came to food, our childhoods were coloured with cheap snacks shared at the canteen table or playground during recess – or even in class (remember fake-coughing just so you could chew on your White Rabbit sweet?).

To commemorate those golden years, we’ve compiled a list of 12 nostalgic snacks you’d have loved if you’re a 90s kid.

1. Ice Pops

What’s a 90s snacks list without this treat? Eating them frozen on a sweltering afternoon was the perfect after-school treat. That while watching any show on Kids Central. Yes, we haven’t forgotten our beloved OKTO of yesteryear.

2. Mamee Monster

This was one of the most fun snacks to eat: salty, crunchy, and made to resemble instant noodles. Crushing it up was half the fun.

3. Wang Wang

It’s no surprise we were all fascinated to some degree by the mysteriously edible, plastic-like coating that encased our beloved, chewy White Rabbit sweet.

5. Fancy Gem Biscuits

These were fancy treats, only rewarded after we’d completed an assignment – and, while most kids probably adored the colourful gems of sugar that topped each biscuit, I would pick them off because they were too sweet for my liking.

6. Haw Flakes

Remember putting as many potato rings as you could on your fingers, and then licking your fingers when you were done eating them? Your childhood would not have been complete without this after-school snack.

There was something about these animal-shaped, salted snacks that made them so addictive. Maybe it was the animals printed on each cracker… or maybe it was just the MSG.

9. Hacks

I highly doubt the fact that Pink Dolphin was a ‘vitamin drink’ lent it extra street cred. It was, quite easily, the drink to be seen with. It also tasted quite wonderful – like magic liquid in the mouth.

If you’re craving for some of these snacks right this minute, it isn’t too late – hit up Sheng Siong supermarket or mama shops (convenience store) for a quick fix! You’re most welcome!
