I was just discussing yogurt in the diet and exercise thread and it made me remember how awful food used to be.
Does anyone remember the first attempt at putting fruit into cereal? I can't remember the brand, some corn flakes, but they put dehydrated bananas in there and they were horrible! This was late 60s, about the time they also had those space sticks, that also were awful.
I'm not sure what the banana chips were made of, but it wasn't banana.
This was also about the time they started making one-serving packaged oatmeal with fruit flavorings in them.
Gawd, what were we? The processed food industry's guinea pigs?
Scientist 1: This is AWFUL!
Scientist 2: Let's release it and see what kind of idiot tries it. We'll say "It's what the astronauts eat!"
