Jell-O Pudding Pops are BACK!

It's a short article that was more suited to be a blog entry, but it was just too big of an occasion to resist: Jell-O Pudding Pops are back! This probably isn't big news to most of you here; I've seen it talked about over the past few weeks, but for the other half of the planet who must have this information, it's now there in html form with a bunch of pictures of Tunnel Rat. Now then, the answer to yesterday's Kinder Egg trivia quiz is...

A spider. Guess the clue was a little easy. "Ant" is our winner with the first corrent entry. He wins a big huge smile. :)

One more thing. The only thing that would make this event even better, is the revival of all those Bill Cosby commercials. I’d love to see the old ones on TV, and even on this website. It’d also be cool to see new ones.

Pudding Giggles!

Mmmmmm, that article made me hungry now, darnit. Might have to make a trip to the store for some of those pudding pops…

Seeing Tunnel Rat made me wonder though, will Cobra’s Chia Plot ever see a resolution?

(Also wondered, if pudding pops can come back, why can’t McDonald’s Changeables? But that’s probably more of a long shot, huh?)

Hey, the Wachamacallit candy bar came back. Anything is possible.

Well… I went to the grocery store and they didn’t have them there. We tend to get things here a lot later than other places though. I’m still waiting on that Glad Press N’ Seal wrap stuff, although I’ve heard it’s not all it’s advertised to be… I had to settle for plain old frozen water/sugar/colour/flavouring popsicles…

It’s not the only thing that’s back. Our here in California I’ve been buying Orange Tangergreen Hi-C for a while with a June expirationd date thinking "oh well, the last of it here" This week I went to the store and woot! Nov baby, they’re making more! hooray!

Additionally I bought about 5 pounds of chocodiles, I guess West coast producers are just better :P

That’s one of the things I love about working in a grocery store. A customer about my age (25) or a little older brought up a package of these, and I’m like "Are those Pudding Pops?" and she says "Yeah! I haven’t seen these in years!" and I’m "It’s a little piece of my childhood back!"

It wasn’t a summer evening in the mid-late 80s if we didn’t get to sit out on the back porch, under the big willow tree or on the rickety steel swing set, slurping Pudding Pops and discussing out day at the beach, movies, TV shows, or life in general. I’m definately going to have to pick up a box.

i just picked up a box today thanks to you guys, i have been asking for the return of these delicious treats for years. if you grew up in the 80s, these were the best.

Bill Cosby… pudding man.
As a little kid, I thought because he liked chocolate puddin’ pops, I assumed he was made of chocolate.

All this talk about Bill Cosby reminds me of those Picture Pages days! Anyone remember the name of the damn pen he used to use?!

Picture pages, picture pages,
lots of fun with picture pages.
Lots of fun with crayons and your pencil. . .

I would have gladly taken the "plain old regular shitty stupid nobody-wants-it piece of crap Vanilla" – I hate chocolate ice cream.

So, hey, Tunnel Rat – lemme know next time, ‘kay?

Somewhere a disgruntled Bill Cosby glares into his grocer’s freezer. How could they not include the man who immortalized the infamous pudding pops? I’ll be he is plotting his revenge with Malcolm Jamal Warner and that dude who played his father on the Cosby Show. I actually met the guy who played Cosby’s dad. He’s really friggin tall…

I watch "Unwrapped" all the time just because it makes me happy to see that Marc Summers still has work.

Chestnuts roasted by Youji @ 06/19/2004 10:48 PM

I love Unwrapped, period. Maybe they’ll do something on the pudding pops if they haven’t already.

Holy picture pages Batman! All of our wishes came true. We all wanted the pops back, and we got em back

Speak of TMNT, did you ever notice that in the UK they were referred to as the "Teenage Mutant HERO Turtles"?

Mugzy…: Cosby’s pen was named Mortimer Ichibod. The best part of the show was the weird electronic noise made when Bill would put his pen to paper. Sadly, this wasn’t a feature available in the home version. :(

Now I’m sad. I require a "Mac and Me" review to continue living!

Chestnuts roasted by A-wel Cruiz @ 06/20/2004 9:53 AM

Thats cool as shit that they’re back. I’ve been craving some for years. I’m a little disapointed that they’re not the same shape as the originals. Ah well, puddin’s puddin’.

I will buy anything endorsed by Bill Cosby. If Dr. Cliff Huxtable suggested a sex change, than the next time I posted on this blog it would be with a new pair of breasts.

Them pudddin’ pops is good.

Matt: If you go to the above address you can order hard-to-find food like BooBerry Cereal,moon pies,novelty candy, and various other food products that are rare.

Chestnuts roasted by JLAJRC @ 06/20/2004 3:00 PM

Yeah, I love those!!!

And I love Bill Cosby– Purveyor of the Jell-o Pudding Pops, Kodak Film, and Coca-Cola.

Chestnuts roasted by TROLDD - Silent No More @ 06/20/2004 3:11 PM

OMG!!!! I am so happy, I have been waiting for the day when I would see these back in the freezer section. I hope they are in my area. Thanks Matt!!

Hey, the Wachamacallit candy bar came back. Anything is possible.

I still think the "Sounds good… smells PEANUTY" is the funniest commercial ever, and Matt needs to review it.
