Subject: 80's snack trivia question
Written By: Maddy on 09/24/03 at 11:15 a.m.
Hi everyone, am new here!
I have a friend going crazy over some snack she can't remember.
It was in the 80's around the time Capri sun became popular (was that the 80's?)..anyway, she says it came in a box of indivually wrapped pkgs of granola type snacks that "looked" like little caramel corn pieces in color and size... Flavors were cinnamon, plain and honey oat.
anyone ever heard of this?

Judging by the flavors, they sound like Nature Valley granola bars. I don't know if that's the snack she's thinking of though. If it is, however, that brand is still alive and well!

Hannah, that's what I thought too..also Quaker made some granola bars that were yummy (and they no longer seem to make the honeyoat one that I liked) but she insists they were caramel corn looking PIECES in individual snack size bags...that came in a box. I'm a child of the 60's (born in '61)...should have had some sort of alertness during the 80's...lol...but I have no clue what she's talking about.

God, I used to LOVE those. I know exactly what you're talking about. Ate them ALL THE TIME!!! But I've tried before, and still can't remember what they were called.... SO FRUSTRATING!! :P
And, yes, they were little clusters of granola, in a little paper-type pouch. Granola bites, or something. Awesome... they should never have stopped making them.
...And they never should have stopped making ChocoBliss!!!

Kaboom,
Any idea what the package looked like or who may have made it (fishing for a logo...anything...lol)....

Hey Maddy,
I don't remember the logo or brand (although, have to agree that the flavors sound like a Nature Valley product). All I remember about packaging was the actual pouches: the honey-oat flavored pouch was all green (also similar to N.V. flavor/color correlations).
I wish I could remember more... All I remember is that they were even tastier than the granola BARS! :P
