Strap on your JNCO jeans, spike that frosted tip, and meet us at the food court, because in Part II of our totally tubular 80s and 90s deep dive,. This time we're getting even weirder and stickier.
We kick things off with a toast to Shanky's Whip, a creamy Irish liqueur that tastes like what would happen if ice cream grew up and got a job at Hot Topic. Then it's straight into a sugar-fueled fever dream: Toaster Strudels, Ecto Cooler (our childhood’s radioactive juice of choice), Capri Sun (stab pouch, pray for the best), and the eternal question: Were Lunchables ever actually food? Spoiler: Yes!, And we loved them.
We light up (kinda) with candy cigarettes—because nothing says “childhood innocence” like pretending to smoke sugar chalk in front of a Toys "R" Us. Then it's off to the mall, our sacred teenage temple where you could flirt in a Spencer’s aisle and eat Wetzel’s Pretzels without shame.
We round it out with some NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, neon everything, and pants so wide you could smuggle an entire Game Boy collection and maybe a small dog..
It’s nostalgic, it’s ridiculous, it’s probably a little sticky… it’s Dippy Does It All. Catch Part II, because we’re still not over the 90s and maybe never will be
