  • Hostess Fruit Flavoured (Canada)

    Does anyone remember Hostess grape, cherry and orange flavoured chips from the seventies? My girlfriend insists I'm going senile.
    They weren't around long since they were absolutely vile. I still get queasy thinking about them

      I remember buying the grape flavoured chips. Ate one chip, then another just to be sure, then threw the bag away. I was so pissed off, just tossed a quarter down the drain.

            Yes these were definately available and different enough to be popular with some in my age range... especially the Grape!

              hey Dave, you are absolutely correct!
              we were just talking about them at work & our conversation almost exactly mirrored your posting.... I asked if anyone remembered them & my neighbour said yes, they were gross!

              So tell your girlfriend they did exist!
              You should find a bag & make her eat them! lol.

                I totally remember these chips! They came in grape, cherry and orange. I used to buy them just because I thought they were cool even though they tasted like crap! They are not a group hallucination! They actually existed!

                  That's a great way to get her to break up with me. I'll have to keep it in mind :-)

                  Yes, they existed. It was in the late 70's or early 80's. I still remember tasting the orange flavour and spitting it on the ground. Biggest flavour mistakes hostess ever made. So no you are not going senile.

                    I remember them too, would've been around 1979-1980. I bought a bag of cherry flavour and was so disgusted I asked for a refund right away. I regret not saving a bag of each.
