WE DID IT!
I was pleased to get the following e-mail today from the space food stick preservation society:
Dear (SCOTTYFERGUSON):
Great news: Space Food Sticks are back! We couldn't have done it without you're support and encouragement of the original SFS fans--so first of all we want to thank you.
Before purchasing the new products I urge you to read our FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) on http://spacefoodsticks.com/spacefood/moreinfo.html
Everything you need to know about the new SFS is there. Also, we are now exclusively selling officially-licensed t-shirts featuring vintage graphics and other memorabilia. Check out the website for vintage TV commercials and more!
Thanks,
Eric Lefcowitz/Space Food Sticks Preservation Society

PS-Due to extraordinary demand your shipment may take a few extra days. We are operating on a first come, first serve basis. All orders are sent Priority Mail.
I never thought that signing a petition to revive space food sticks would actually work. Go figure.
Boy oh boy havent had one of those since 1975.
SPACE FOOD STICKS had the oddest texture.
It was like a gritty tootsie roll. MMMM MMMM nothing better.
If you were stupid enough to have yourself born after these went off the market I suggest you buy a case for yourselves. Get a nice patch of shag carpet and plop it on the floor in front of your TV set. Crack open a case of the Peanutbutter Sticks, plant your ass on the shag, and watch re-runs of MATCHGAME'73 while eating the entire case. Then and only then will you realize how good these damn things really are.
Here is the commercial that I remember. Note the voiceover has changed the name from SPACE FOOD STICKS to the rather dull name of FOOD STICKS. Oh but they were still called SPACE FOOD STICKS on the box yet the fact remains these things never got out of orbit. That was its downfall. If you lie about something be prepared to keep it up for your entire corporate life.
This was Space food that never got into space.
Pillsbury did have a chewy pastelike food that did make it to skylab but it was not this stick that was marketed to kiddies all over the U.S. Even the people in skylab were FORCED to eat the SPACEFOOD as a nutrition supplement every three days AND only in the event of an emergency.

Proof that your vote really does count!
Now please convince all the non-voting Democrats and anyone who can't stand the current administation of this fact by November 7th, please!
That's like getting a letter that says "CONGRATULATIONS- YOU HELPED BRING BACK POLIO!"
When you eat these, your first thought will be: "Wow, I thought I liked these."
In the same category: Otter Pops.
Luke gets the prize for tonight.
I know im going to dislike them. I never liked ASTROPOPS but from time to time i get a craving for them. The memory is better than the snack for sure. But my life is so empty the only thing I can hold onto is the romanced memory of a bad snack. Thanks. I'm depressed.
Wow, good for you Scotty! Thats pretty damn awesome!
