“I used to flambé table side in the late ’70s/early ’80s. This was my favorite. Then it just sorta dropped off menus everywhere.”

I'm Claudia, an NYC-based editor on the Tasty team covering all things food, whether it's a viral recipe, the latest food drama, or politicians awkwardly standing in a Steak 'N Shake.

"I credit the original Cajun gourmet, Justin Wilson, for this. In the late '80s/early '90s, when more and more people were getting cable TV, he had a few different shows that reached coast to coast. He was maybe not iconic, but he was pretty popular and inspired people to have a taste of the culture and cuisine he fondly promoted."

"I would order loaded potato skins as my meal until they basically disappeared in the late '90s."

"Sun-dried tomatoes were freaking EVERYWHERE for a while there."

"I used to flambé table side in the late '70s/early '80s. Steak Diane was my favorite. Then it just sorta dropped off menus everywhere."

"Ah, the Wendy's solarium. The epitome of fine dining in the '80s."

"There was a whole-ass fondue restaurant in downtown Royal Oak, Michigan, in the '90s. Cheese for the appetizer, then meat and/or shrimp in oil for the main, and chocolate for the dessert. Tasty, but it took hours."

"I made them all the time as a kid in the '70s and a young adult in the '80s. I haven't had one in years!"

"The first restaurant I remember going to as a kid with exotic-looking houseplants everywhere was a '70s creperie. I didn't see another place that did crepes primarily for over 40 years."

"I grew up in Louisiana, and we had this everywhere! I always order it now when I see it on a menu."

"I remember these as a kid in the '70s. I think it was Denny's or Howard Johnson's that had them. They were so popular at the time. We ate them without a care in the world about how unhealthy they were."

"I was a cook in the late '70s, and Thursday had liver and onion specials. Man, I still remember having to cook that nasty stuff. The only people who ordered it were old people."

"This, but with a pineapple ring instead of the peaches, is like a nostalgic meal that reminds me of my grandmother. It was years before I realized she was always on a diet."
