Some foods are just too good to leave behind. We're talking about mac and cheese, dino nuggets, and Uncrustables, which are often labeled “kid’s foods." However, many of us still sneak a bite (or a whole bowl) of these timeless foods and snacks well into adulthood. In this fun and nostalgic roundup, we’re celebrating 22 childhood favorites we never really outgrew.

22. Fruit Snacks

"They’re my favorite “work snack”. I’ll grab 3-4 packs from my kid’s stash, open them all up and just have a small pile on my desk. I’ll casually just pick at it for a couple of hours." - u/JHuttIII

21. Animal Crackers

"Specifically the ones that used to come in the circus train car box" - u/mmkhoppz

20. Chocolate Milk

"I swear I could be 80 years old and still slam a tall glass" - u/CuckShucker

19. PB&J Sandwiches

"Heavy on the jelly. Preferably on white bread that's so heavily processed it's practically made from pulverized printer paper." - u/ManicMakerStudios

18. Dino Nuggets

"We have dino nuggies and tots night about once a month. We’re in our 40s... You can’t go wrong with dino nuggies sometimes." - u/wanderingnightshade

17. Popsicles

"I used them for coping after I quit drinking. 3 years sober and still eat them like they’re going outta style." - u/BubbleGuttz

16. Lunchables

"Because sometimes building your own sad little cracker sandwich while overthinking your texts is all the dinner you need." - u/StardustAriaBabe

15. Chef Boyardee

"I still eat a can of Chef Boyardee now and then. Comes in clutch in a power outage or camping." - u/MangoSalsa89

14. Goldfish

"The wholesome snack that smiles back until you bite their head off" - u/RC1172

13. Buttered Pasta

"I didn’t even have buttered noodles as a kid. My husband couldn’t believe I’ve never had them so he made me some & now i probably have it 2-3 times a month. It’s like comfort food I didn’t know I needed lol" - u/Optimal_Midnight3586

12. Apple Sauce

"The Costco pack of squeezable apple sauce is top tier and insanely convenient. I don’t care if they’re meant for kids, I eat sometimes two a day without shame. They’re also a great source of fibre." -u/DT_Grey

11. Smiley Fries

"I just really like the texture and their horrific, scorched little faces." - u/steamsphinx

10. Fish Sticks

"Dipped in an ungodly amount of ketchup! Sometimes I like tartar sauce too, but I really prefer them dunked in ketchup" - u/casbri13

9. Totino's Pizza Rolls

"The other brands just can’t compete with a beautiful golden brown, slightly crispy Totino’s pepperoni pizza roll. Especially if there’s a little ranch or marinara sauce to dip it in." - u/motherofcatsx2

8. Uncrustables

"My 16 yo daughter and 41 yo partner both love uncrustables so much I find it hilarious. I’ve been meaning to start making them myself since they’re getting so expensive these days but I haven’t gotten around to it yet." - u/MzHellfier

7. Annie’s Mac and Cheese

"Nearly 8 months pregnant and about to dive into a bowl of Annie’s Mac and cheese." - u/BasketSnob

6. Spaghetti-O’s

"I love when my daughter is full and cant finish hers. I swoop down like a vulture and devour the rest of her bowl and the rest in the pan lol" - u/Underground209

5. Cocoa Krispies

"I had a bowl of the off brand coco krispies the other day. It went sooooo hard. I was in chocolatey milk heaven" -u/shartnado3

4. Otter Pops

"I just ate 5 otter pops and regret nothing. They're my favorite summer time treat. I easily eat an entire box in week. " - u/garbagegoat

3. String Cheese

"My family never bought string cheese when I was a kid for some reason. Then I started dating my now-wife, she would buy it sometimes, and I started appreciating it as a quick snack. We still don't have kids, but we usually have some string cheese in the fridge." - u/linoleumknife
