Slimer Gum II

New Article: You guys got an early look at the Slimer gum, but I felt that there was enough material there to warrant a full article. Click here to read it. Also includes information on Slimer's cereal, fruit snacks, and yes - Ecto Cooler.

I LOVED GBs when I was little! I remember me and my neighbor playing in the driveway drowning them in the mud puddles pretending it was protoplasm. I had this black ball cap with a plastic like cover and the GB symbole on it. I wore it for so may years until one day my dad cut the bill off for a costume! And the blue GB lunch box? I used that until I was in 6th grade and mom my tossed it! Parents ruin everything! Oh to have my hat and lunch pail for a brief moment.

JJuett,

The show you are thinking of is Filmation’s Ghostbusters. Filmation actually had a live-action Ghostbusters show before the moive was made in the seventies.

I remember really enjoying the Slimer gum. But I would have enjoyed cyanide if it had a Ghostbusters logo on it.

Ecto Cooler wasn’t just about the Ghostbusters product placement. I was the one kid in class who wasn’t obsessed with Ghostbusters. I liked it, but I was more interested in making sacrifices to my Beetlejuice shrine.

Ecto Cooler, though, was my favorite thing in the world. I drank as much of it as I could get my hands on, and that’s probably why I’m hypoglycemic (can’t eat sugar) now. I’m convinced it was worth it. I still get overwhelming cravings for it on a pretty regular basis.

The full title of what may be the modern version of Ecto Cooler is, according to the Hi-C site, "Shoutin’ Orange Tangergreen." With a name like that, it’d have to be Ecto Cooler. I’ll punish my pancreas with a box or five as soon as I possibly can.
