20 Kool-Aid Flavors You Used To Be Absolutely Obsessed With

By Tanya |

There was no drink that was more important or delicious than Kool-Aid. There is no room for argument, because Kool-Aid was the best of the best. Sure, now we know that it's just all sugar and has no nutritional value, but when you're a kid, who cares?

Kool-Aid knew exactly what they were doing. They marketed their product specifically to kids. They had super fun commercials, clever names for their products and the best cups to go with the drinks. No one could resist their charm.

But unfortunately, nothing lasts forever. A lot of the flavors that we were addicted to as kids no longer exist. Sometimes we are lucky enough for them to bring the classic flavors back for a limited release, but is it ever really enough? No, never.

How many of these iconic flavors do you remember?

Rock-a-Dile Red had one of the best packages ever made

Purplesaurus Rex was one of the most delicious flavors ever made

Great Bluedini was always a great treat

Incrediberry made us feel like super heroes because it changed colors!

Pink Swimmingo was absolutely perfect

Sharkleberry Fin was as cool as that shark's sunglasses

Berry Blue later became Ice Blue but it was always a favorite

Bedrock Orange was a nice way to benefit off the Flintstones craze

Candy Apple was a weird concept but some people liked it

Solar Strawberry Starfruit was a real superstar

There are still so many more flavors we remember...

Blue Moon Berry was totally out of this world

Apple was nice for those who didn't want apple juice, just the apple flavor I guess...

Root-Beer is not a flavor you would expect from Kool-Aid, but I guess some people liked it!

Arctic Green Apple would tingle in your mouth so that was an experience that you couldn't forget

Blastin' Berry Cherry was my all time favorite, it was the perfect beverage

Lemonade was the best lemonade ever, no doubt about it

Rainbow Punch was the best jumble of flavors

Surfin' Berry Punch was simple and delicious

Kickin-Kiwi-Lime were one of the best Island Twists flavors

Lemon Ice was another one that would tingle when you would drink it, and people were divided on if that was a good thing or an awful thing

Which of these flavors was your favorite? Let us know in the comments!

Reptar Bars Are Back And They Are The "Superist" And The "Duperist" Versions Yet

By Tanya
Everyone remembers watching Rugrats as a kid, right? It was only the best kids' show ever. Those "dumb babies" as Angelica Pickles would say were a lot more clever than they let on, and in their many adventures they inspired us kids to believe that we could do anything. I mean, we don't have to question how or why a baby keeps a screwdriver in his diaper, because the logistics of where he got it or how he keeps it in there without hurting himself is beyond me, but that's not what matters here. What does matter is that these

Trix Cereal Is Finally Going Back To Their Classic Look And We Cannot Wait

By Tanya
Who else remembers eating a big ol' bowl full of Trix cereal in the morning before packing your lunch and heading off to school? Trix was the perfect cereal to eat, because a lot of us felt like we were tricking our parents into thinking it was healthy. Sure, we're eating sugary cereal, but it's fruit-flavored so obviously it's not as bad as Cocoa Puffs or something. Boy, were we wrong. Well, now we're all old enough not to care, we can eat sugary cereal if we want because guess what, cereal is delicious. But there's been one thing missing

15 Former Pizza Huts Now Trying (And Failing) To Be Something Else

By Tanya
We've said it before and we'll say it again, Pizza Hut is truly excellent. No, they aren't paying me to say that, but if they want to, I'm ready to make a deal. Back on track though, Pizza Hut has been around since 1958, and in their 60 year history they have managed to create quite the empire. Sure, a lot of other pizza places have come and gone in that time, and maybe they aren't as popular as they used to be, but Pizza Hut will always hold a special, pizza-shaped place in all of our hearts. If there

7 Reasons Why None Of Us Will Ever Forget The Glorious Pizza Hut Experience

By Tanya
I don't know about you, but for me, Pizza Hut wasn't just a restaurant. Pizza Hut was a magical place that only existed when you got a straight-A report card or had a birthday. There wasn't a location nearby to my town, so going to Pizza Hut was an event. But I think that even those who went more often still know all about the power of the Hut. Going to Pizza Hut doesn't seem like it's as big of a deal anymore, if anything people tend to forget it exists. But those of us who know the truth and

The Very Last Blockbuster Store Has Launched Their Own Exclusive Beer

By Tanya
Everyone who grew up in the 80s and 90s knows that Blockbuster was the coolest place in the world. Every opportunity you'd get, you'd rush down to the video store to search the aisles for your new favorite movie. You'd always check the new releases first, and if nothing sparked your curiosity, you'd head over to the older movies and search until something looked fun. It was always the best part of the week, and the fact that there is only one Blockbuster left in the country is kind of heartbreaking. 15 dollars later and you could have a blockbuster

Pop-Tarts Crunch Cereal Is Making A Come Back And The Wait Is Almost Over

By Tanya
If you were lucky enough to be alive in 1994 or 1995, you know that Pop-Tarts Crunch was the only cereal that mattered. Sure, it only lasted for those two years, but those of us who got to eat it, have been missing it ever since. It came in two delicious varieties: Brown Sugar and Strawberry, and honestly I can't pick a favorite. It was basically like having a big ol' bowl of Pop-Tarts and that's all we want. Pop-Tarts were already one of the most popular breakfast snack, probably because it was a way for all of us kids
