do you know what this snack food item is called?

in the past two weeks, this beloved snack food item of my youth came up in two separate conversations and two of the three people involved had never heard of it.

are you serious? smh; the combo is an american snack food treasure.

i have never seen this before in my life, and if someone mentioned it by name i would give them a blank look

maybe they were some snooty oakland farm-to-table types who ate nothing but tabouli in their homeschooled upbringings.

unless it is called a cheese pretzel, then I would be like yeah I want one

Needs a "i have never seen this before in my life, but it is pretzel and cheese, so I would eat it" option. Never heard of it, but it seems like a reasonable snack.

I'm not sure I've ever purchased Combos but if they're around I'll have a couple. I seem to not be running in Combos-eating crowds anymore though.

omg i love combos

xxp - one was my ex-bf, who will eat doritos w/ranch dip as a meal.

i rep hard for the pizza varieties:

http://slice.seriouseats.com/archives/2010/07/ode-to-combos-pizzeria-pretzel-pepperoni-pizza-cracker.html

*rep hard = eat maybe once every five years, but enjoy a lot

COM BOS

<2 in 1, imo>

i know what this is and i might drive to 7-11 to buy some right now

i have never seen this before in my life, and if someone mentioned it by name i would give them a blank look

sarahell you just made my day, eating some right now cuz i went to my corner store when i saw the image. (no joke) (i live next to a corner store)

i was just talking about combos with someone last weekend! haven't had them in years. iirc i ate them a bunch w/o really being crazy about them?

nb goldfish are forever the snack food of my heart and i basically buy like two bags of them a week :(

Never seen it, but I'm not American.

lol

i'm not american and nb. these are the worst thing in the world

I could get with pretzels + cheese but the US idea of pretzels filled with cheese has got to be some hell level weird.

i think the reason why a lot of ppl may have never heard of them is b/c somewhere along the way they became sort of a second tier snack-- something you'd find towards the rear of the snack aisle at rite aid, rather than something occupying premium shelf space at the supermarket

back in the day (the eighies) they were heavily marketed and enjoyed much greater visibility. these days your paris hiltons are not going to be snacking on combos. maybe your christine aguileras or your don novellos, but not paris. she is the "it girl" of this decade for pete's sake!

I love the combination of pretzels and cheese, but i have always been terrified of combos and would never let one cross my lips.

they are so delicious that you don't realize you've had too many until it's far too late

I've seen them before but I've never had one and don't know their name

have heard the term 'combo' but never seen one irl. maybe I've seen a bag or something.

combos were for sure one of my junk food gotos back in the day

pizza flavor 2nded

classic road trip food. something you only eat in the car on a road trip.

know 'em, used to eat 'em

http://blogs.amctv.com/breaking-bad/Rodney-Rush-325.jpg

I associate them w/this discount food store:

http://greenbabyguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/grocery-outlet-carries-cheap-organic-food.jpg

Love Combos. I've eaten them for breakfast. The jalapeno ones are hard to find, probably because they fuckin' rule.

Opening a bag of Combos is like, I eat one and then suddenly the bag is empty and no time appears to have passed.

these are the ultimate "these are DELICIOUS!" (30 seconds pass) "THESE ARE DISGUSTING" junk food

i know what combos are but have rarely ever eaten them. for some reason they never appealed to me as a kid because the bags they came in were really small compared to other junk food. i wanted quantity over quality

most otm thing youve ever said xp

these are made out of magic and if you have never had one and are american you have never truly lived (or been up way too late boozing it up and stopped by a super-america with a car full of drunken buddies)

also in this ^^^ arena - weird gas station food on that infinite roller thing, the legendary chuckwagon sandwich

i totally want a bag of combos now. i don't think they have them at my local 7-11 (which has a pitifully small snack food inventory).

might i suggest buying some off-brand pretzel nuggets and dipping them into pre-masticated non-extreme flavored doritos?

capital idea!

have we already talked about gardetto's in another thread? because i feel those are of similar cultural signifigance

def never heard of gardetto's

wtf is a chuckwagon sandwich

I mean, I hope it isn't a dog food sandwich, but that's basically what I'm assuming

it's makes me so happy that you can now get a bag of gardetto's containing ONLY THE RYE CHIPS. corporate america heard my cry.

def never heard of gardetto's

whaaaaat

altho going to cities where they have UTZ is like, ok what decade slash country am i in now

maybe it's a midwest thing?

utz r the best

never saw utz before I moved to the east coast

gardetto's is like chex mix without the chex in it.

luv their old school ways #utz

They also make a special bag that is only rye chips.

yeah must be a midwest thing

I only vaguely remember Gardetto's after seeing a picture of the bag, I'm reasonably sure they don't exist outside of the upper midwest

when utz were in mad men I was still west coast and I think I thought it was a fake old timey company

would love to see a chip version of this kind of thing

http://popvssoda.com/countystats/total-county.html

but it'd be more about sales than names i guess

I have Gardetto's in the mid-Atlantic.

LIAR they are the pride of MN and the Deli Express empire. also my grade school went on a field trip there which was really really stupid, but we did get free chuckwagons at the end so hey

when utz were in mad men I was still west coast and I think I thought it was a fake old timey company

when i saw them on shelves for the first time (forget where) it was after the mad men plotline, and i was vaguely irritated there wasn't a picture of the mulholland drive creeper on the bag or anything

i think they are becoming more available up here fyi

haha "LIAR" okay you caught me, I wasn't assuming it was a dog food sandwich, I was assuming it was a sandwich made of dogs *hangs head in shame*

I think sometimes I lived in a weird parallel MN to all of my friends because many of you have vivid memories of things I had no idea existed

2. insert into uncleaned convenience store microwave for 45 seconds
3. eat while waiting in line for bathroom to flush your ruined underwear down the toilet

Is it like a kaiser roll filled with???

omg does SUPERMOM'S no longer exist???

I am pretty sure my mother managed at an early age to convince me that I would instantly die if I ate any form of hot convenience store/gas station food because I am thinking back across my life and I am pretty sure that I have never, ever eaten any of it, even when I've been starving and young with spare change.

i have been trying to google the ingredients of the chuckwagon but so far to no avail. idk theres meat and fake cheese in there.

i like to chew up a combo and spread the resulting paste between two intact combos

tracer that is not even possible

i think for about a year i only ate food that i could get at my local superamerica, so if supermoms is no more i may enter a fugue state

tracer that is not even possible

oh yes it is

When I was a kid Gardetto's seemed like really classy snacks.

i once at a lunch counter place in nyc where they carried utz. one day, a woman asked for chips with her sandwich. she was pointed over to the utz display, and she crinkled up her nose and said "no, i want REAL chips."

i once worked, that is.

yummy

The best part of a bag of Combos is the inevitable pretzel-less cheese cylinder, usually near the bottom.

giving that a quick scan it looks like the chuckwagon is the choice for the busy person on the go that wants to eat all the meats that arent fish in one convenient helping

I would like to point out that this is all one ingredient:

Kaiser [Enriched Bleached Flour (Wheat Flour, Malted Barley Flour, Niacin, Reduced Iron, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Water, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Yeast, Contains Less than 2% of Each of the Following: Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil, Poppy Seeds, Salt, Wheat Gluten, Spice Blend (Yellow Corn Flour, Spice Oils [Turmeric and Annatto], Sunflower Oil), Corn Starch, Calcium Sulfate, Ammonium Chloride, Azodicarbonamide, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Monoglycerides, Citric Acid, Calcium Peroxide, Calcium Propionate (Preservative), Ascorbic Acid, Calcium Iodate, Enzymes, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Dicalcium Phosphate, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Sodium Bicarbonate, Monocalcium Phosphate]

Interesting -- apparently Gardetto's started out in Wisconsin and was acquired by General Mills in 1999, so it was probably a Midwest-only thing until then.

no, they had gardetto's in the northeast before that.

i am thinking that a GAS STATION SNACKS nom/poll is a good idea

The more ingredients, the merrier.

pretty sure that Microcrystalline Cellulose is what supermans fortress was made out of so thats pretty cool

i'm imagining a big cartoon robot arm with a white glove keeping some chickens on one side of the pen, other chickens on the other

it's kind of like that, only it's just one chicken

The choices are slightly inaccurate, for me. I have eaten them and I know what they are called, but I would know what they were called whether I'd eaten them or not.

Yeah, like, same vibe as grey poupon

nothing tastes like a chuckwagon. Like, wanting a ham and cheese sandwitch is not the same thing as wanting a chuckwagon.

i know what it is called but have never eaten one

I was so happy when Gardetto's started making bags of only the garlic rye chips

"Combos really cheeses your hunger away"

Just reading those words brings the jingle to the front of my mind. Combos were my stoner snack of choice as a teen; drive to the store for some combos, drive home, put the bag of Combos on the warm engine block while toking up, eat warm slightly melty Combos.

I used to like the cracker ones more than the pretzel ones. Don't know now which one I'd prefer.

if you are on the east coast and you are choosing utz over herrs I smh at you

never seen herrs

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg7jT4dBK6k

Old Humpty Dumpty (Ketchup! Pickle! Clam!) was better than Utz, but man do I miss the Maryland Crab Chip.

herr's are always all smashed up and not crispy enough

utz>>>>>>>>>>>>>lay's>>>>>>>>>>>>>>herr's

not sure where wise fits in

These days if I'm going to go for savory junk snack I'd have to reach for Snyder's Honey Mustard Pretzel Bits. Yum.

how do these compare to those trader joes pretzels filled w/ peanut butter

Snyder's Honey Mustard Pretzel Bits are made from fluorescent highlighter fluid, also crack cocaine

my #1 surprise + delight living in HK was finding out that snyder's honey mustard pretzels were a regular feature of vending machines

Pretty much the only of these convenience-store snacks I eat on the regular is Snyder's Olde Tyme Pretzels, from the vending machine at work.

the bags emerge from the machine covered in a layer of Olde Tyme dust

Olde Thyme Pretzels would be pretty nasty

i love utz, better than lays and half as expensive

http://www.esquire.com/cm/esquire/images/06-Herrs-Heinz-Ketchup-062810-lg-66043450.jpg

my afternoon snack used to be a liter of coca cola and a large bag of red hot utz. like EVERY DAY. :/

the best thing about herr's, and the worst thing about lay's/utz, is the thickness of the herr's chip and the thinness of the utz chip

a man can really snack down on a herr's chip

utz, on the other hand, may be good for replacing the lenses in the glasses you wear

'herr' sounds like it was named by reddit or something

does utz not make north carolina bbq chips anymore? those used to be my fave but i couldn't find them last time i was on the east coast

uhhhh herrs are like the size of a bible. yeah thats really what i want out of a potato chip, something i could surf on

herr's has too few burnt chips because of their thickness. Burnt chips rule.

One of the things that has surprised me about Dallas is how many restaurants here make their own chips. Nice option instead of fries.

― 40oz of tears (Jordan)

zapp's neglects the standard flavors in favor of their own wacky concoctions. i don't want "gator tators" i want a standard dill pickle chip. also need a good bbq flavor tho in the south it's hard to top golden flake's sweet heat bbq. utz's carolina bbq and whatever their kettle chip line's vinegary bbq are a+

zapp's gets points for the voodoo gumbo flavor (now renamed to simply "voodoo" i guess so people don't think it's gumbo flavored?) and the salt and pepper.

Kettle chips rule but it's sad they did away with the Russet ones cause they were the best.

I can't believe there are people out there who have never heard of/had combos.

anybody here fuck w/ target archer farms? I like archer farms because they're not afraid to experiment with new flavor powders

lol dill pickle is a standard flavour of crisp to you people? so gross

I was eyeing up the loaded baked potato ones the other day but did not buy. Also noted that they do baked chips of which I am generally a fan of.

i had a bag of archer farms bbq ribs flavored chips that were good but i had 2 throw out b/c i couldnt really deal w/ them -- i think i dont want my chips to taste like a meal

Kettle chips are doing sun chip type things now which is weird and unnecessary imo.

I accidentally bought a bag of baked blue corn tortilla chips from TJ's... I don't know what to do with them except to dump them into the Black Maw At The End Of The World

Yeah. I say I'm a fan of baked chips because they're better than nothing but at the end of the day a lot of them just taste like salted cardboard.

you would think they would come out like pringles but they don't, so sad

dill pickle, ketchup, all dressed, gravy, roast chicken are all standard flavors of chips in Canada.

all dressed!

I remember someone having to explain that to me. So weird.

chips companies need to step up their game re: innovative and new flavors imo

i ate some nacho cheese combos on saturday evening and they had a slight change in flavor since the last time i ate them
i was disappointed, but ate them anyway

i was wondering when you would show up here

I had some fancy Walkers ones in England recently that iirc were goats cheese and something else. SO GOOD.

it took me a while, but the call of the combo was too strong to resist
somehow i knew what was hiding inside this innocuously titled thread

Are Popchips a thing for any of you?

Popchips are a thing borne of Satan

I can't even try them because the basic concept is fundamentally offensive to how I believe the world works

there's a great episode of "mike and tom eat snacks" where they review popchips. they were the first product they had been sent by a company and they spend half the episode mocking the chirpy letter the marketing guy sent with the samples. iirc they were into the salt-and-pepper popchips but not the rest of them.

Which aren't bad, actually. The bbq are acceptable and the rest uninteresting.

I want squid ink flavored chips, like nero di seppia flavor - that would be awesome

someone please explain "all dressed" crisps

i am in awe at the idea of a baked potato flavour crisp, that's basically a crisp flavour crisp

haha right there with you, thomp

that's basically a crisp flavour crisp

Actually, I believe it's sour cream, chive and cheddar. It's really just a cheesed up sour cream and onion chip.

i think the british crisp market has taken a turn downhill in recent years, to be honest. the ridiculous extent to which the faux-artisan crisp sector has taken over. these fall into the problem of there only being about five basic flavours that the g.b.p. is really comfortable with, on a crisp (vinegar, cheese powder, onion powder, salt, flavour enchancer), and any other flavour being either difficult technically or (i suspect) softballed by the manufacturers so as not to miss the comfort zone -- the recent walkers attempt at a 'chipotle' flavour just tasted purely of onion

the real problem, though, is the great difficulty in locating good tortilla chips

or, as we like to call them, "maize crisps"

I love Combos but DJP and Tracer OTM about there being a very thin line between being happy you are eating Combos and wishing you were dead.

Also, it is super fun to bite the pretzel in half and eat the cheese out of the middle.

XP POPCHIPS ARE THE WORST. I have said this elsewhere on ILX.

Also, it is super fun to bite the pretzel in half and eat the cheese out of the middle.

No resulting paste. The whole resulting paste meme makes me want to puke.

I think all dressed are more supposed to be a little but of every flavor.

no resulting paste themed option?

what the shit is a popchip

popping is a way of making our all-natural chips. we start with wholesome potatoes, add a little heat and pressure, along with a little snack magic. and pop! it's a chip. all that’s added is a flavorful blend of all-natural seasonings to create taste-bud popping flavors that appeal to the whole family. pop open a bag of popchips and try for yourself. everybody has a favorite. or two. all it will cost is your IMMORTAL SOUL

wow they really managed to cram "pop" into that blurb about as many times as humanly possible huh

I only eat popchips when I achieve poppage

I love popchips.

no xpost

That snack podcast had a really funny one where they reviewed Veggie Booty and were totally otm re "kale dust".

Has anybody ever made kale chips? Those aren't bad either. Kinda like nori but w/o the sea-taste.

yes, they're pretty good

that is to say: they're crunchy and salty

I thought Popchips would be like Munchos but they were not.

I would throw all the Popchips in the world into the river for one bag of Munchos.

lol yeah they're nothing like Munchos which, omg, are probably my most favorite shitty snack food. I haven't had them in years but I have fond fond memories.

Kale chips are really good but also easy to ruin. I've overcooked them a couple times.

I have been unable to find Munchos in Chicago.

Munchos are the greatest.

I'm listening to the Marcia Trionfale from Aida while we're talking about how great Munchos are imagining a line of supplicants bringing Munchos to the Pharaoh and wishing I was a pharaoh so I could eat some Munchos.

after this thread i now see them everywhere...there's a term for that isn't there

I was in a Dollar Tree store today and saw some, looked worth trying (a spicy version) but wasn't buying anyrhing else and didn't want to go through the line just for them. Shelf-stable cheese still seems like a bad idea.
