THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING OREO Package

Image
by Darrin Vindiola OREOs fascinate me.  I mean.. how could they not?  What's almost equally as fascinating, is the phenomenon of the perpetual shrinking OREO package. It bugs me when I see a "Family Size" package of food that not too long ago was in fact standard sized .  Case in point.. OREOs.  Check it out.. OREO Package of my youth  (these contained 54 cookies) On the rare occasion that we would have these in the house as a kid, I remember them lasting all week.  Why is it, that in 2018 my family kills a package in one day?  Oh yeah, the new packages nearly fit in the palm of my hand.   Modern Day OREO Package I can pretty much palm the new OREO packages What The...? Don't even get me started on how tiny the Limited Edition packs are. That's more like it! Now we're cooking with Peanut Oil!  As you can see, OREO packaging has once again come full circle!  However.. the new "family size...

Retro Review: Irish Spring vs. Zest — Which Classic Bar Soap Still Reigns Supreme? (2025 Update)

Image
If you grew up in the 70s, 80s, or even the 90s, you probably remember the same two bar soaps sitting on just about everyone’s bathroom counter: Irish Spring and Zest . Both were cheap, loud, memorable, and built their entire reputations on commercials that drilled their slogans straight into our brains. And because I’ve been on a little “old-school grooming” kick, I decided to go full retro and test them head-to-head again. I used each bar for over a week , real shower use, real Florida sweat, real life.. to see which one actually performs the best in 2025. Spoiler: one of them still holds the crown until someone proves me wrong. Irish Spring: The Heavy Hitter The classic version Irish Spring has always been the in-your-face, hit-you-with-a-green-brick-of-clean kind of soap. And honestly? It still is. What I Tested Daily showers Working outside Sweat-heavy days Multiple hand washes What I Noticed Cleaning power: Irish Spring still cuts through everything! Swea...

Cookie Crisp Cereal Mascots Through the Years: Nostalgia for 70s, 80s & 90s Fans

Image
Theretrodad.com experienced a huge bump in site traffic during the month of July. Upon checking my site stats, I saw massive amounts of Google searches for 'Cookie-Crisp' that were directing viewers to an older Cookie Crisp article I wrote. Therefore, I decided to dust off that old article, and add some more in depth history about the cereal, as well as the mascots we've seen over the years. Ah, Cookie Crisp Cereal. What a sneaky way to get kids to eat their breakfast! Not to mention an equally sneaky way to trigger me into late night snacking. I can't even begin to count the bowls of Cookie Crisp I ate while watching late night TV, or while working on blogs and web-sites late into the night. Launched in 1977 by Ralston Purina, Cookie Crisp was an instant hit right out of the gate. It was originally available in chocolate chip, vanilla wafer and oatmeal flavors. My absolute favorite was the vanilla variety, with chocolate chip being a close runner up. Other flavors intr...
