Spaghetti O's is one of the only "kid foods" I still buy as an adult. I love them.

My mom used to think they smelled like puke, so you're not alone.

i opened a can maybe a decade ago for my kids..took one whiff and i was like "NOPE!"

just threw them away, didnt even end up heating them up.

eta and as a kid it was like winning the lottery to open the pantry after school and finding a can something definitely changed with my taste buds along the way.

same with bologna sandwiches. as a kid i had to have a slice of kraft american cheese and miracle whip

now if/when i do have one, i fry the bologna, NO cheese and mayo only.

Spaghetti-Os.
Totino's pizzas. Which I've been known to eat every so often still.
Pizza rolls.
And a serious love of Sour Punch Straws. I would eat the hell out of those to the point I'd lose my taste from the sour stuff on the outside. Worth it.

Tuna salad.

I’m 38 years old and I haven’t eaten it one time since I moved out of my parents house 20-21 years ago. My mom fixed it for us, seemed like weekly. It was fine, it fed all of us in a pinch, but I haven’t missed it. ????

The stuff we would eat as an afternoon snack was always interesting. Spray cheese. Frito pies with the little bags. Cut the bag lengthwise add a little wolf’s chili microwave top with cheese. Enjoy.
