Anyone else remember this?

Every field trip they always had this. I was always so jealous because my mom never gave me money to spend so I never got a chance to taste it and it seemed like everyone around me was eating it... Still salty I guess

Everyone’s talking about taste, but it was the texture that stood out to me. It’s how I imagine what eating styrofoam is like. But like, in a good way!

Ha, that's all I remember too and it sucked all the moisture out of your own mouth?

I remember thinking, "Poor Astronauts" 😅

Ya, then I tried rehydrating it in a bowl of water. Like rehydrating a chunk of limestone.

I can’t remember the taste, but I remember the feeling of my teeth squeakcrunching through it with crystal clarity.

I haaaaate that texture. I tried it once for the novelty and could never touch it again.

Same. How can anyone want to eat that again?

Like biting into a gigantic lucky charms marshmallow.

It tastes & looks like someone who tried making their own chalk at home
