Fruit by the foot was the holy grail of snack food.

The snacks from the 2000's were a totally different thing than they are now. Our school lunches were filled with the best food ever created (that may be dramatic, but I just loved fruit roll-ups). Here are 9 foods that were definitely in your lunchbox during grade school.

1. Pizza lunchables

You were always jealous of the kids who had these. And whenever you mom did pack these for you, it was like Christmas.

2. Sunny D

Why drink regular orange juice when you can drink Sunny D?

3. Fruit Roll-Ups

These were the bane of my existence. There were so many different colors and flavors and some of them had tattoos you could put on your tongue. Whatever genius us behind these is truly a revolutionary.

4. Bugels

You're lying if you say you never put them on your fingers and pretended to be a witch.

5. Fruit by the foot

Totally delicious. Just a foot of leathered fruit.

6. Hi-C

Only the orange flavor, of course.

7. Dunkaroos

The holy grail of sweet snacks.

8. Bug Juice

I don't even remember what these tasted like, I just remember always begging my parents to buy them for me when I saw them.

9. Trix yogurt

Two flavors in one, right next to each other. It's truly the best of both worlds.

10. Ring Pops

You definitely proposed to someone using a ring pop.

11. Cosmic Brownies

Those rainbow sprinkles were the only thing you needed to get through the rest of the school day.

12. Fun Dip


Your fingers would be sticky all day from this, but it was always so worth it.

13. Gushers

These were delicious enough, but then the surprise inside of the gusher made them a whole new snack that you never wanted to give up.

14. Push Pops

These were really weird. It was pretty much just hard candy in a different form, but we were convinced they were extremely innovative. Still delicious.

15. Twinkies

Last, but certainly not least, these were the motherlode. When Hostess went out of business, my life was ruined.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
