"Sun-dried tomatoes. So good! They were ubiquitous at least a decade ago...you could find them at so many restaurants on pizzas, in pasta, in salads, and other dishes. I even remember Elliot Gould in Friends waxing happily on sun-dried tomatoes in the show: 'Five years ago, if somebody'd said to me, 'Here's a tomato that looks like a prune,' I'd have said, 'Get out of my office!'' Then POOF...they just disappeared. And now, as I write this, I'm sad."
"Spumoni ice cream! A delectable combination of chocolate, cherry, and pistachio ice cream. It used to be a staple flavor, and now I never see it, even at Italian restaurants. I have to buy all 3 flavors separately to make it."
"ICEBOX CAKE! Vanilla and chocolate pudding, layered between graham crackers, I think the name derived from forming it in a square covered dish from the 'icebox' before the refrigerator."
Sun-dried tomatoes were ubiquitous at least a decade ago, appearing on pizzas, in pasta, in salads, and other dishes before largely disappearing. Spumoni ice cream combined chocolate, cherry, and pistachio layers and used to be a staple flavor that is now rarely seen, even at Italian restaurants. Icebox cake featured vanilla or chocolate pudding layered between graham crackers or thin chocolate wafers with whipped cream and was once considered an elegant refrigerated dessert. Chocolate pudding pops were frozen chocolate pudding on a stick and were widely enjoyed despite association with a controversial spokesperson. People over 40 are invited to share nostalgic forgotten food trends from childhood.
