There are tons of old-fashioned foods we'd rather leave in the past — aspic, ham and banana hollandaise, tuna loaf... the list goes on. However, we recently asked people to share the vintage foods they think should make a comeback. Here's what they said:
1."Ambrosia salad. I know some people still make it, but you can make it better than in the past, when they just used canned fruit. I add fresh strawberries and grapes — you can add cantaloupe too. It's so good."
2."Chocolate ice cream soda at the five and dime."

3."Chocolate pudding in a can. Delicious!"
4."Orange sherbet creamsicles."
—Laura Uhley Butler, Facebook
5."I used to love Pepperidge Farms Chicken Croquettes. But that was a long, long time ago."
—Pete Maier, Facebook
6."Eggnog-flavored PDQ. Instant eggnog, just add milk. That stuff was so good. Sometimes I would just eat it out of the jar by the spoonful."
7."Beef-flavored Rice-A-Roni. It doesn’t taste the same as when I was a kid 50-something years ago."
—Kathleen Bivins, Facebook
8."Campbell's Alphabet Soup, baloney cake, and those six little individually wrapped pizzas that were bundled with strands of red tape."
9."Whip 'n Chill."
10."Hostess Li'l Angels."
—Cecilia Haynes, Facebook
11."Tuna Twist. If you know you know."
12."Fizzies, the tablet you'd drop into water to make soda."
—Leonard LaViscount, Facebook
13."The original peanut butter Twix that had the shortbread cookie with the peanut butter and chocolate on top."
14."Mock t-bone steak from the World War II days."
—Daniel WalkingBull, Facebook
15."Banquet Boil-in-Bag meals. Before microwaves, you got a frozen meal (like Salisbury steak or roast beef ) in a sealed bag, and dropped that in a pot of boiling water to heat up. Dinner was ready in 10 minutes."
16."Swanson whole chicken in a can. I used to make soup with that."
—MaryAnn Rupp, Facebook
