Thursdays can never be complete with a throwback. Today, we look at snacks and confectionaries that were popular some years back. They were in-thing during the 80s and 90s. Apparently, most millennials can relate. So they are obviously not a children anymore. Are we ready for the list? Here we go:
1.Okin Biscuit
There was no other biscuit, Okin biscuit was in a class of its own. It was the go-to snacks for pupils. The four corner one was a personal favaorite. Who can forget?
The mallam who had a small kiosk down the street was a regular customer because he sold ‘baba dudu’, the seet candy that could be as long as you want.
3. Goody goody
I particularly like the advert. It had an interesting sing-along tune. That could not compoare to the chocolatey taste it left in the mouth.
4. Robot/Bazooka/Jenka /Banana chewing gums
They were very affordable. I think about 50k or so per one. It was a nice feeling chewing after grabbing a couple of them.
Speedy, Milk Maid, Fishly, Coconut Cookies, Pepper Snacks were in high demand at a time. Can you recall?
