I ate the fuck out of these at age 4.

Same. And at the same age. The chocolate ones are what I remember and they were *so* good. A quality chocolate animal cracker will ~kinda~ get you there today? Not a perfect match, a cracker's texture is probably a little smoother/finer, but it's close.

Yeah, chocolate Darth hit me hardest when I looked at this photo. I don't think I've seen them or even thought about them since I was that age. It's crazy what you can remember.

Um ACTUALLY the Empire was notoriously xenophobic and would never allow Gamorreans to serve as guards, they were only used by Jabba in RotJ *snerk*

I certainly hope someone at Pepperidge Farm was fired for that blunder

Vader looks like he stole one of Lando's capes.

I think his cape is lined with evil chocolate flavor.

Big memories. Saw Jedi in the theater three times. Ate many a chocolate Vader.

I don't know why I remember this so clearly, but these cookies were great for putting a whole one in your mouth, sucking out all the air from the cookie, letting your cookie-anticipating drool replace the air, and then eating the cookie mush. Such are the physics experiments of 4yos.
