six new boxes each with six of your
favorite pokemon shapes
hey everyone i'm rebecca and welcome to
watch mojo today we're counting down our
picks for the top 10 cartoon character
snacks
that bring us back to our childhood
x-men pasta it's not just a meal
it's an adventure garfield fruit snacks
great tasting
and good looking ninja turtles
from the tours to you for this list
we'll be looking at foods inspired by
animated properties that leave us
feeling nostalgic
which of these do you have a hankering
for right now be sure to let us know in
the comments
all right let's dig in what one fruit
roll-up will we roll out with next
number 10 tiny toon cereal
a tie-in with the zany 90s animated
series this quaker breakfast cereal
surely made for plenty of saturday
morning meals spent in front of the tube
presented by steven spielberg tiny toon
adventures saw a new generation of
cartoon characters attend acme acres
university
where they sat under the learning tree
of past looney tunes favorites
welcome to acme luna city institute
of higher lining and lower comedy given
that the show was defined by its energy
and vibrance the cereal
a mix of rice corn and oats shaped into
beige letters
admittedly felt a little uninspired but
with babs and buster on the box
we were just happy to be eating in such
great company
number nine spongebob popsicle i'm cool
these popular frozen treats also known
as spongsicles
are made to resemble a certain
squarepants wearing sea sponge
well for the most part anyway you see
while it has a tasty fruit punch and
cotton candy flavor
the frozen treat is perhaps most
remembered for its comical deformities
boy crime fighting sure makes me hungry
and this yellow popsicle hits a spot
okay
uh good luck with all that patrick and i
guess i'll see you later
whether it's the result of being left in
the sun too long or a manufacturer's
error
the spongebob popsicle's droopy features
and altered eye placements have become
ultimate meme fodder but honestly that's
all part of the fun
you can still find these frozen treats
in many ice cream trucks so
who knows which version of our sponge
buddy you'll unwrap
please do not land flying ice cream
trucks on the bathers
number eight darkwing duck fruit snacks
[Music]
from garfield to tom and jerry it seems
that just about every popular cartoon
has joined the fruit snack market at one
point or another
but of all the animated themed gummies
that made their way into school lunch
boxes it's darkwing ducks real food
snacks that reign supreme
drastic times call for drastic action
from fruit parade these bite-sized
treats came in the shape of various
characters from the beloved disney
series
which followed a bumbling superhero as
he fights crime with the aid of his
feisty daughter and trusty pilot
given the show's ever-growing cult
status we bet a return of these chewy
mallard delights would be a welcome one
it's much too dangerous out there i
better keep you close
thanks darkwing number seven scooby
snacks
would you come with us for a scooby
[Music]
there is perhaps no fictional food item
more famous than scooby snacks
the incentive treat of choice for
everyone's favorite mystery solving
canine
in fact the animated delicacy has been a
constant feature in the many scooby-doo
related series and films released over
his 50-plus years of history
[Music]
will you wake up for a scooby snack so
there's really no wonder as to why the
snack made the leap from screen to store
shelves
of the many variations to hit the market
the scooby doo keebler baked graham
cracker cookies are perhaps the product
remembered most fondly
that mix of honey and cinnamon crunch
has satisfied many a kid's appetite
no mystery here gang these biscuits are
scooby-dooby scrumptious
[Applause]
[Music]
number six shrek twinkies ogres
are like onions they stink
yes no okay so not all cartoon-themed
snacks are equal on the appetizing scale
unfortunately for these shrek twinkies
the green icing filling made for a
shall we say unsettling visual but this
2001 cross-promotional item apparently
went over well enough with junk food
consumers
as they would go on to make a return
just three years later for shrek 2.
now that's the stuff and while the big
green guy has seen his noggin on
everything
from waffles to marshmallow bites it's
this striking take on the classic
twinkie that conjures up the most
youthful recollections
it'd seem that kids weren't really
thrown by that ogre green creamy filling
after all
number five popeye candy sticks just a
click
a candy staple for multiple generations
popeye sticks are
timeless you'd be hard-pressed to find
someone who hasn't indulged in these
crunchy sugar sticks
in association with the vintage cartoon
these popeye treats actually started out
by being marketed as tasty candy
cigarettes
and were sold with red tips yep kids of
bygone eras could pretend to smoke away
using these faux ciggies before
chomping down on them hey watch it
muscle head
for obvious reasons they were later
renamed candy sticks
and had their red tips removed
regardless of its smoky past
you can't deny that popeye sticks make
for a truly retro treat
takes care of when you're blazing has
fun the safe way
says pop by the sea love man
number four x-men pasta new from chef
boyardee
all your favorite x-men in pasta shakes
and excellent sauce
for kids of the early 90s there was
perhaps no better tasting pasta than the
ones shaped like mutant superheroes
chef boyardee's tomato and cheese
flavored x-men pasta soared in
popularity right alongside the much
lauded animated series of the time
why not ask her better
the celebrated x cartoon was a true
translation of the marvel books
mixing faithful adaptations of iconic
stories with exciting new journeys
so naturally hungry youngsters jumped at
the chance to take their favorite heroes
with them to the kitchen table from page
to screen to spoon
this was more than a meal it was an
adventure new x-men pasta
it's not just a meal it's an adventure
number three smurf berry crunch cereal
that fruity cereal with marshmallow
stars will be
marshmallowy mine took our cereal given
the perfect pairing of cartoons and
cereal
it's no wonder the lovable dwelling
smurfs got in on the breakfast crates of
the early 80s
from post cereal these brightly
decorated boxes provided a delicious
offering of berry crunch goodness
composed of fruity sweetened corn oats
and wheat the cereal was given a berry
red and smurfy blue color
kids apparently couldn't get enough as a
second smurf cereal would be introduced
by the end of the decade this time
adding marshmallows to the mix
new smurf magic very cereal part of this
nutritious breakfast
perhaps the only thing more memorable
than the cereal itself was the tv ads
jolly jingle
oh what did we do with all this
delicious smurf fairy crabs
eat it of course a very smurfy part of
this nutritious breakfast number two
teenage mutant ninja turtles pies
with teenage mutant ninja turtles mania
running wild in the late 80s and early
90s
a busload of food tie-ins followed suit
so with the likes of hero shaped pasta
and ninja net cereal
kids of the time had no shortage of
turtle-endorsed snacks to choose from
but there was one sweet treat that
proved to be the most radical
hostess teenage mutant ninja turtles
pies the packaging alone is enough to
strike up some bodacious nostalgia
as for the green glazed pie crust and
vanilla pudding power treat inside
the advertisements promised they were
quote fresh from the sewer
oh how unsanitary but kids loved
everything about it
[Music]

residents have lent their likeness to
many items with more than a few falling
under the snack category

version of push pops that will surely
send
tongues into a tailspin of tasty
remembrance
these colorful sherbet push-ups came in

rubble and cave kid cherry

cool treats with nerds candy inside and
