2015 Was the Year of Nostalgic '90s Foods

All right, slow cookers have been around for the latter part of the century, but whose family didn't whip up barbecue pork or beef chili in their crockpot on the regular? For a while, microwaves and fast-and-easy recipes superseded the low-and-slow cooking technique. But these days, moms and millennials alike want in on the unctuous slow-cooking action.

Perhaps it was due to Disneyland's 60th diamond anniversary, but practically any princess-loving Disney fan wanted every edible update this year, including the practical (Disney-themed wedding cakes) and completely ridiculous (Disney princess hot dogs).

I don't know a single kid from the '90s who didn't frequently beg their parents for McDonald's breakfast. With Taco Bell and other fast food chains winning the hearts of millennials over the last few years, McDonald's knew what it had to do in 2015: launch all-day breakfast, the perfect nostalgic driver to pull people back inside its golden arches.

S'mores, the toasted marshmallowy treat you enjoyed as a kid, has practically become as commonplace as vanilla and chocolate. Beyond inspiring hundreds of recipes, s'mores became the feature Summer flavor for big companies like Oreo and Starbucks.

New to 2015, Girl Scouts released online cookie ordering, making it even easier to score those coveted Thin Mints, Samoas, and Tagalongs, which '90s kids wished they could consume all year long.

This Fall, Chrissy Teigen Instagrammed her new Easy-Bake Oven, the adored baking contraption of the '90s, giving us adult bakers the green light to buy an upgraded model. Frankly, it looks rad.

Who doesn't dream of a marshmallows-only box of Lucky Charms, even as an adult? We all cried sweet marbit tears because General Mills invented such a thing and because it only gave away 10 boxes in a very limited sweepstakes.

Surge, Coca-Cola's highly caffeinated soda, gave us all fun jitters when it came out in '96. Fans begged Coke for a rerelease after it was discontinued 11 years ago. It took a few years, but as of September 2015, Surge has rolled out to store shelves.

All grown up, Tiffani Thiessen (from Saved by the Bell) now has her own show on the Cooking Channel called Dinner at Tiffani's. It would only be appropriate that her guests include all your favorite stars from the '90s, including former castmate Elizabeth Berkley and *NSYNC singer Lance Bass.

Pepsi jumped in on the nostalgia bandwagon and released this insanely funny '90s-themed commercial to promote its Crystal Pepsi sweepstakes, in which winners can score a six-pack of the discontinued soda. While some find the clear soda to taste cough-syrup-y, other kids from the decade are fighting for a taste.
