    I  grew out of mac and cheese as a teenager, hot dogs are minimal, hate McD's or BK... but one that always has stuck with me and I still eat - ramen noodles!! sooo freakin nummy! haha

    @miss-spunkin: I LOVE macaroni and cheese and chicken nuggets.  My husband actually prefers the dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets.

    I still love Kraft mac and cheese and ramen noodles with a fiery passion but gave them up when I became healthier. I do still allow myself a McDonalds Happy Meal every once in a while though- I love the chicken nuggets! They are the perfect sized meal for me. I love that you can get apple dippers with them now, too.

    Franco American Raviolios!  I ate them on occasion as a kid, and it was always a treat.  If someone bought Chef Boyardee instead I'd be sad.  Raviolios were also mainstay of late night dorm food in college, and now they are so rare in NY that I buy 5+ cans every time I spot them, and heat myself up one as soona s I get home :)

    @miss-spunkin: cheese sandwiches made on a keiser roll with mustard mayo and pickles....brings me right back to high school since i would get one of these sandwiches in the cafeteria nearly everyday. also, flamin hots and cheese dip. and lastly, i do not believe ill ever get sick of bologna sandwiches, but, its gotta be made in a very specific way. my great grandmother babysat me as a little girl and she would make me bologna and cheese sandwiches for lunch everyday. it was made with white wonder bread, miracle whip (which i hate in general, this is the only time ill ever eat it), a slice of kraft cheese and oscar meyer bologna. now i want one....damn it!

    I grew up with McDonalds as a treat once every 3-4 months, and I still LOVE it!  I also like elbow macaroni in my tomato soup and campbells sirloin burger soup over rice (we had that all the time at my gramma's house!)

    The only "kid food" that I really don't like anymore is most of the candy (sour anything eek) and cake--Little Debbies makes me want to puke--and the overly processed stuff. I can eat chicken strips, but regular McD's chicken nuggets, bleh.

    The other stuff...I'll eat it, but it's usually not my favorite. I'll eat ramen, but I want to dress it up. I'll eat Kraft MacnCheese but I'd rather have fancier baked stuff. Even fish sticks I can eat, but I'd much prefer tilapia and wild rice :D

    So, it's not really that I don't like the old kid stuff, I just have adult version that I like better now.

    I love mac and cheese, but I usually make my own recipes, which are lot more grownup than what we ate as kids.  Although, I've been known to help my daughter polish off a box of Kraft, when the occasion arises.  :)

    Mac & Cheese, specifically the shells variety.  PB&J is good, but has a shocking amount of calories in it... never worried about those as a kid. :)

    Oh, and definitely Reeses Puffs!!  We were only allowed them about once a year growing up, but sometimes I'll luck out and MIL will have a box when I go over.  I can't buy them because I would eat the whole entire box myself.

    Grilled cheese, ramen, and my personal favorite:

    graham crackers smothered in peanut butter and topped with chocolate chips. Love it. DH giggles every time I eat them.

    I haven't had a candy bar in.... goodness, almost 6 months. I'm done with those!

    haha I love this thread! It's making me laugh, and smile and remember all the things I still love.

    My favorite comfort food, hands down, is oreos - with a glass of milk - nummm!!!

    I also still love lucky charms and honey nut cheerios are my favorite cereal! I'm so glad they make them with whole wheat flour now, I don't feel so bad eating them ;)

    I will forever love Kraft mac n cheese. It's really the only mac n cheese I like. 

    I also still love PB & J's, as well as grilled cheese. 

    Other than that, though, I really don't like much crappy kid food. In general, I think most processed foods are disgusting, though, so I think that's part of it.
