Canadian forest fires. When you bake cookies in trees you are asking to start a wildfire.
Menards sells them. I buy a bag every now and then
T.G.I. Friday's® Cheddar & Bacon Potato Skins - 16 oz
You just can't go wrong with T.G.I. Friday's® number one seller. Their Cheddar & Bacon Potato Skins feature tasty potatoes and real potato skins for a taste that is sure to "wow" everyone around the snack bowl. This is a definite crowd pleaser...just make sure you have plenty to go around.

+1 for DaVinci's and Gumby's Pokey Stix. Both were delicious. Same with the Pizzeria chips too mentioned
How about Chi Chi's Mexican restaurants? Probably have to be at least in your 40's to remember them. Not sure when the one in West Des Moines closed but was probably sometime in the 90's but remember that being one my favorite places to eat when we made a trip to Des Moines.
Wasn't there a place once in North Grand Mall in Ames called Cactus Bob's maybe that was a decent Mexican restaurant? I remember something similar to that name I think in the late 90's.
Chinese Homestyle Cooking had the best Chinese food in Ames. Wish I had made 1 last trip there before they went out of business.

I feel like the current taco flavor of Doritos is the worst one ever. The taco flavor of 20, 30 years ago was better
These at Menards are also ******* the bombMenards sells them. I buy a bag every now and then

2nd best. Cocost was the GOAT Chinese restaurant in Ames.
I saw that but I'll be surprised if it's anything like I remember. Too much time has passedChi chis is coming back this year!

I had some good cheap Chinese at Little Taipei and some good stuff at the Mandarin.
Gumbys used their bathroom floor as a storage space for their pizza pans and utensils.
The Mandarin was a great place for taking out a college date in Ames back in the day. Great food. I remember Little Taipei as well and went there quite a bit.
What was the name of that Chinese restaurant upstairs of what was Tazzles back in those days?
And the Pokey Sticks were still incredible. Went out of business either fall 2007 or spring 2008. Smotherella sticks were at least a solid replacement.
The Pizza Hut P'zones from about 2005-2008 were phenomenal. We got them constantly because you could get filled up for $5.35. They were a shell of themselves when they brought them back 5 or so years ago.
My wife’s favorite was the Mandarin if we went for Chinese when she came to town. Couldn’t beat Cocost for a quick run for food with the guys on your floor. We went there about once a week most of freshman year and all thought it was named Cocos because the T was missing on the sign above the door.
No mention of Valentino's in Ames yet? Their Sunday brunch was always great.
