Pixifoods Part I

"Pixifood (PIKZ-ee-food), noun: Any food substance that is highly pleasant to the taste as a child and tastes shockingly unpleasant once you become an adult."

What follows this definition is a hilarious discussion of several of these items that is definitely worth your time. The article has apparently been around a while (I only just discovered it today), but if you've got a little time to kill (or I don't know.. a tropical storm bearing down on you) -- give this a look.
Here's a few choice experts:
Pink Snowballs
As a child tastes like: Coconut cream filled pink cakes.
As an adult tastes like: Triple bypass surgery.

Kentucky Fried Chicken
As a child it tastes like: Picnics in the park.
As an adult it tastes like: Salt.
There are more detailed explanations, but I don't want to spoil it.

Even better are the comments that follow, where adults who have clearly outgrown their sense of humor proceed to defend the foods in the article.
