Pocket Fruit
This had been driving me crazy for days. I was trying to remember the name of these flat rectangular fruit snack things we used to eat when we were kids. They seemed more healthy than Fruit Roll-ups because their color actually looked like something found in nature... the fruit they were made from.
I remembered that the packaging looked like the pocket on a pair of jeans.
I worked my Google magic and found this ingenius site
"Food of the 80s"
and, scrolling down to the Ps, I found what I was looking for.
A chorus of angels sang as I read: "Pocket Fruit - 1/4 cm thick piece of a type of "fruit roll-up" that came in packaging with a denim jean pocket on the front. Not made by the same company as fruit roll ups, though. They were usually found in the Produce Dept. of any grocery store."

Hmm. Don't remember that. I was a fruit roll-up kinda guy. Artificial colors and preservatives all the way!
...Though maybe I'm regretting it now. I wonder if my receding hairline has any link to that? Hmm...
