Just wondering. Guess I'll have to do a search and see.

Last night, I was eating a slice of cheese, the sandwich size cheese.
I take it and fold the cheese over a couple of times to make small squares to eat one at a time, on a cracker.
Then it hit me! I remembered when I was a kid, I never broke the cheese into squares. I'd take to big
crackers which consisted of 4 crackers stuck together to form a big sandwich size cracker, and place my
slice of cheese on it, place another big 4 way cracker ontop, and TADA!......I had a cheese cracker sandwich.

Ok, I'm losing it!

Any of you other folks out there my age ever wonder what happen to good stuff that you cannot find any more?

Sandwich with peanut butter

I can never find those Kraft Cheese sticks I love -- not the small, packed in boxes in some supermarkets today -- but ones that are thick-as-your-thumb, individually plastic-wrapped ones

*sigh* Even the old Jack and Jill favorites like Nuts and Pops aren't around anymore ( Nuts and Pops was actually caramel popcorn mixed with peanuts, that were sold in large plastic jars, not vacuum-packed packaging of today )

And there are no more Orange Julius or Coney Island Ice cream or A&W in places like Makati City

There was something else the other day that I realized did not seem to be made any more...I can't remember what it was.

I do really miss those big 4 way crackers. You could break them into 4 crackers or break them into 2 crackers or not break them at all. They really are good for cheese and peanut butter. Instead of spreading one little cracker at a time, could make big 4 way cracker.

May I recommend, Melba Toast

As far as the 2nd part, yes I miss the good stuff of the past, I may not be as......well, never mind, age has nothing to do but I miss things that were built strong to last and quality - nowadays it's mostly flimsey, fragile and low quality items being sold (I guess you can say they cut corners ? lol even on crackers! ) So things are not what they used to be, now it's all artificial, processed and dangerous
