12 discontinued childhood food items people would pay good money to eat just one more time

"I've been craving a pudding pop for a decade now."

By Jacalyn Wetzel

Childhood snacks will always bring nostalgia, but not all snacks withstand the changing times. Companies close, ingredients have to be changed due to new regulations, or they don't sell as well to younger generations. Whatever the reason, some delicious treats from childhood go the way of the dodo bird, and some people would pay anything to taste them again.

The thought of a discontinued treat likely crossed a Reddit user's mind when they asked people to share their favorite discontinued childhood treats that they'd pay $100 to eat one more time. Snacks that haven't seen the inside of a child's lunch box since the '90s were prominent on the "pay to eat it one last time" list. Nostalgia immediately flooded the senses of those suddenly reminded of snacks they hadn't eaten in decades.

The CIA says this one body language gesture is a dead giveaway you are an American

It's called the "American Lean."

By Emily Shiffer

Americans have unique body language and gestures that set them apart from other countries and cultures. These American quirks—such as pointing and eating while walking—are easily picked up by non-Americans who are quickly able to identify us.

Besides a certain demeanor, other American indicators include clothing choices like backwards baseball caps and wearing sunglasses on one's head.

According to Jonna Mendez, the Central Intelligence Agency's (CIA) former Chief of Disguise, there is one specific posture that has been deemed a dead giveaway of an American identity. It's called the "American Lean."

As one of four sisters, this got me. 🥹

In 1986, Cher bravely stood up to David Letterman during an uncomfortable, sexist interview

It was her first appearance on his show.

By Evan Porter

Cher had accomplished a laundry list of amazing feats by the time the 1980s rolled around. She'd hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100, had international number-one hits, starred on television and on Broadway, and established herself as an acclaimed actress. In 1988, she even won an Oscar for Best Actress for her role in Moonstruck.

But as of 1986, there was still one major thing she hadn't done: appear on Late Night with David Letterman.

It wasn't for lack of trying on Letterman's part. He'd been trying to get Cher on his show for years and, with the help of a hefty appearance fee, sealed the deal in 1986. The audience was excited. Letterman was excited. But when Cher finally walked out onstage, things didn't get off to the smoothest start.

Woman says we are 'severely underreacting' to octopuses, then proves she's not wrong

"However impressed or fascinated you are by octopuses, it's honestly probably not enough."

By Annie Reneau

What creatures have eight legs, nine brains, and dozens of fun and fascinating facts about them? Octopuses, of course. (Wait, is octopuses or octopi? Octopodes, perhaps?)

However interesting we think our suction-cupped, cephalopodic friends are, we're probably selling them short. That's the contention of Sarah, a comedic content creator on TikTok who's been sharing everything she's learned about octopuses, because they're far more bizarre than we might think.

"However impressed or fascinated you are by octopuses, it's honestly probably not enough," she says. "We are severely underreacting to octopuses collectively."
