"maypo" news and stories

The oldies station of food sites


Remember the good old days? You'd lounge out on the porch in the summer, licking away at your Slo-Poke Sucker, Jr.? Sadly, I'm too young (my summers days were spent at sleep-away camp, divided into organized activities like volleyball and instructional swim) -- but if you do have nostalgia for foods or sweets that are no longer easily available, check out Hometown Favorites, a site dedicated to selling food items that are currently difficult to find.

The site features a grocer, a gift center, and a candy store that lets you search by decade (though admittedly, there's a lot of overlap). Some of the items are pretty recent and others I don't think really qualify as hard to find, but it was still fun to scroll through and see what the store has to offer.

My favorite "oh yeahhhh..." moment was when I spotted Maypo oatmeal -- my dad loves the stuff and used to make it all the time when I was little. What do you think, any old favorites? Other sites offering similar products?
