When I was a little girl (this was late 80's/early 90's) there was a bagged corn snack I really liked called Hooplas, they tasted sort of like Bugles but they were ring-shaped. Does this ring a bell to anyone?

Hula hoops? Interesting, I wonder if that's just the same product with a different name. Bugles are cone-shaped corn snacks-they're hollow so you can put them on your finger:-) I guess we only get them here in the States. You can see them here:

Yes...I remember them! I can remember going to the convenience store and getting them for like 50 cents in those little baggies...
Hooplas --
They were small rings flavored with nacho cheese or plain corn chips. I don't remember who they were made by, but I will keep looking. If I find anything, I'll post it here!
UPDATE
What I did find on the internet after a WAY advanced search is that Hooplas were made by Keebler, and they were recalled in April of 1998 due to a problem with the corn that made the chips. The corn was grown in South Carolina and people got sick from it so they were recalled. I guess they took it off the market because it left a "bad taste" in their mouths!
Remember Pizzarias? Now they were the BOMB! Have a great day!

Whats Bugles?
There are crisps(chips) over here in N.Ireland called hula hoops, come in original, salt and vinegar, and beef flavour, sound sort of like what your talking about, and I've had 2 packets today :P

YES! I loved those too! I haven't seen them in years - they came in different flavors, right? My mom used to bring those to us after school once in awhile. They did taste like bugles - thanks for the trip down memory lane! :)
