I have not thought about lil fruits on the fridge since before I had a care in the world.
zuruzuruzuru
I miss you grandma.
MethOrNoMethYouStillGottaFloss
Forget Grandma's, most of this was true of my house growing up...
SedativeComet
My grandma has at least 16 of these things
Siamanx
My grandma not only had 16 of these, she took me to other grandma houses where all of them were present
ddspill
Oh God. . . . my wife & I are OLD, we knew it when we saw our Tupperware, the Werther's finished us off
kimchibwoy
My grandma collected all kinds of weird stuff. She had this one wooden figurine of a tribal deity squatting over a pot and pooping...
Zeusified
Still can't find the strawberry candies in stores. Really do believe it's a grandma secret
MightyTightyWhities
Falling asleep on plastic couch and having your sibling peel you off.
IAlwaysUpvoteGhostbusters
I'm 29 and have a purse full of weathers and mints. I'll be a great grandma one day.
UsChickens
My gran has been dead for 30 years, and this post still made me cry a little bit :(
Kalliefornia
Grandpa gone for 7 grandma gone for 19. Same reaction.

Grandma was the one with cable. (She lived in town while we lived in the ocuntry)

I have to fight with my wife to keep the plastic bags to a rational level. We are in our 40s.
LtNibbles
Omg most of these are true of my house now. I'm not even 30.
Rosainmd
Those things just happen. It kinda creeps up on you.
emilpontis
Haha same here!!!!!
VolcanoTacoGinsburg
I was thinking wait this reminds me of my mom's house. Then I remembered I'm 32 so to many ppl my mom's house = grandma's house. Blehhhhhh
ChiefSokka
I'm sorry you had to find out like this but you're a grandmother
vicesat
WTF in Spain is EXACTLY the same.
Imadudefromokc
I asked my grandpa why there is plastic on the couches? He said "your grandma is a squirter"
thesameasyours2
if only a sniper could be as accurate as this post
yodragon
This is exactly what my grandma had down to the stationery bicycle, still love the strawberry candies
finitemachine0
31 year old, with a 28 year old girlfriend. We have 8 of these things in our home.
cyno01
Like how the fuck is this so universal? All of these are 100% accurate for both my grandmothers, im nearly 30, white, midwestern, mid class.
Silenka
Same here for my grandparents, this was my exact experience as a kid. Everything's the same.
DeadOnionSaysWhat
Same, I'm 50, white, midwest (Nebr), mid class. Astounding.
CobraDBlade
You forgot the VHS tapes with the cartoons from the 50s and early 60s. The ones with the then acceptable stereotypes.
kkneat
That television was not the first ever invented
AuntieMeat
Yeah, that TV was pretty standard at *everyone's* house during my '80s childhood.
ehhitskp
This is insanely accurate.
Ktrose68
That's not a pot. It's a roasting pan. *sigh*
MyUsernameSaysOtherwise
my exact thought
mjso23
And it's a kitchen essential in my 28 year old opinion!
AzaellexTytalus
I have that roasting pan! I got it from my mom and I have no idea how many generations have had it before me.
Amythyst
Dozens.
AshtaMonogue
Yep!
ImTinyRickMotherFuckers
same here i bet ill get it next
Aeithen
FACT: The strawberry candy with the syrup in the middle reproduces asexually.
andrich2k
Also Werthers Originals
tst5000
people like them? what.
BatmansUnderPantsAreSoSoft
Dollar Tree/Dollar stores sell it :) I just found them the other day and brought them to work and handed them out. Everyone was giddy
kimchibwoy
Or through mitosis.
Hemispheres
My grandma's were always in the candy dish so long they were completely soft and turned pink.
TherealNotSid
But only in an old person's house similar to 40+ single women and cats.
IShouldBeWorkingRightNowWhatAmIDoing
But seriously... also in Europe!
SlickLily
Pretty sure giant sells those. They were my favorite growing up so I made sure to find some as an adult.
manik024
Found it at the store once bought every bag
Verldemert
Found the grandma!
manik024
I'm a 28 yo man though
IThinkToastersAreSexy
Wrong. You are a 60 year old grandma
vintagebroad
I am only guilty of #18 and I'm 70. My mother was guilty of all of them.
DeadOnionSaysWhat
That is amazing, my mom is 70 and pretty much every single one of these is my mom and gma.
helicotrema
That's the best one.
vintagebroad
That's what the grand and great grandkids want. Who am I to argue.
glaug
Anybody else never know their grandparents?
Rosainmd
I saw my grandparents at least 4x a month when I was growing up. The best gift they gave me were me were memories. I miss them.
minabear
I knew them, but they live in other countries
thatsnotflyingitsfallingwithstyle
I knew mine but not well. Maybe visited ten times in total (counting both paternal and maternal). I envy others that visit theirs often
elymi
I didn't either. Learned why my mom moved a thousand miles away from them when I was 17. Really terrible, soul-draining people.
glaug
Yeah, my mom admitted to me a while back that she was relieved when her mother died. What a way to feel about your own mom.
elymi
Empathetic internet fist bump to you friend.
