Disneyland Corn Dogs - Crispy Deliciousness Like No Other!

Check out this exclusive video of me enjoying a delicious contribution to obesity caused by eating food at Disneyland! (Does that sentence make sense?!)

The only reason why I love Lucky Charms is for those stale, crispy marshmallows. Get yours at CerealMarshmallows.com

Remember This?

Yeah, neither do I.

They Plump When You...

It's Labor Day weekend. Labor Day means barbecues. And barbecues means hot dogs. As a child of the '80s my hot dog of choice was Ballpark Franks.

They *plump* when you cook them.

I didn't quite understand the kinkiness of that slogan, but the phallic commercial made me feel... strange... and excited.

Stick this in your bun!



But my favorite childhood hot dog wasn't a hot dog. It was the Oscar Mayer CHEESE dog. Sure it didn't plump (giggle), but it had a creamy, cheesy center. A scientific food marvel that blew my mind. How can you resist this?

MAKIN' STUFF! Hi-C's Ecto Cooler!!!

That's right kids, for the first ever "MAKIN' STUFF" segment here on 80sfat, I made a very special video for you guys! Sara and I attempt to recreate everyone's favorite sugar-doused children's drink of the 80s: Hi-C's Ecto Cooler! Based on the beloved "The Real Ghostbusters" cartoon series, Ecto Cooler featured America's favorite dead guy Slimer smack-dab on the cover!

Even though the drink doesn't exist anymore, that doesn't mean we can't try to get all scientific and shit and make our own! OR at least try to recreate that Orangy-Tangeriney treat!

Check out this special video, and see what happens!

Have a BALL!

I remember it still. Popping open the canister. Carefully, slowly putting my hand in as to not touch the metal, razor-sharp edge at the top with my Operation gameplay steadiness. I'd grab as many as I could and stuff them all in my mouth.

Plantars Cheez Balls are my childhood.

At the grocery store, while my mom was getting eggs or bread or something healthy, I was stockpiling these drums of golden, crunchy, cheesy spheres into our cart. I never questioned the anthropomorphic peanut as a mascot.

Thanks Cheez Balls for contributing to my childhood obesity!

A Hanker For A HUNK O' Cheese!

This chubby bastard liked to swagger around like he owns the place, daring kids to eat "hunks" of cheese after school. Remember this guy? Apparently they started running PSAs with this yellow doofus in the 70s, but I remember his round shape disrupting my precious Saturday morning cartoons during my chubby-childhood days of the early 80s.

 He says cheese on a cracker is a nice after-school snack, but too bad the drunken transient looks like a delicious cheese-puff, or a fried macaroni and cheese ball! So naturally I opted to dig my dimpled hands into the dangerously sharp aluminum can of cheese-balls instead. Great job ABC!



I'll eat YOU, you cheesy old-timer! He IS made of cheese right?

"Baked means not fried! But is still full of magical fattening juice!"
