Squeezits
Squeezits debuted in the 1980s. The business followed a common marketing strategy at the time, which held that children would be more drawn to colorful foods and beverages.
This beverage was offered in a wide variety of flavors, and it even came in black bottles to conceal the color of the beverage for an unexpected mystery. However, as the 1990s drew to a conclusion, sales began to decline, and in 2001, the drink’s manufacture was formally discontinued.
Oatmeal Swirlers
If there is one breakfast option that rarely makes kids smile, it is oatmeal. The goal of Oatmeal Swirlers was to reverse this notion.
Oatmeal Swirlers, which were popular in the 1980s and early 1990s, featured containers of fruit jelly paste for every package of instant oatmeal. These flavor packets could be used by kids to make drawings and spice up their breakfast. Similar items like Dinosaur Eggs Oatmeal briefly outlived the product until it was discontinued.
