Hula Hoops are a potato-based snack, in the shape of short, hollow cylinders.They were first introduced in 1973. Hula Hoops come in several different flavors. They are produced by KP Snacks. In the UK there is now a new variety made with corn, called 'Hula Hoops Tortilla', which come in Cool Original, Chilli Salsa and Nacho Cheese flavours.They are also a toy.Known as a British snack, Hula Hoops are golden-brown hoops. An average bag contains 25â30 hoops with the main ingredients being potato, sunflower oil, rice flour, and salt.

Original flavor Hula Hoops come in a small 25g foil pack. The front of it is light to medium red, with a picture of a large mustard hoop, which covers three quarters of the pack, with the words, âHULA HOOPSâ, inside the hoop. Underneath it says, âoriginalâ, then, âpotato ringsâ.

Danisco Flexible produced exclusive packs of Hula Hoops for KP Foods to make a 10 year-old boy's dream come true. James McKelvie won the chance to have his own invented flavour of Hula Hoops â Olive and Caper â produced when he appeared on the BBC's What Ever You Want television show. In 2009, a Hula Hoops advert featured The Village People song '"Y.M.C.A" in the background, as two hands with a couple of Hula Hoops on their fingers danced. In the UK, they currently have games on the packs (Such as "Hula Ball" and "Hoop 'Boules'")

Answer
Actually, I was born in 1943, so I don't know if I qualify for your Survey, but being older I may have a better grip on it. So i'll do it anyway.

1) Steve - 17yrs of age, In High School and worked Part time for my Uncle's Orthopedic Store

2) The Cold war brought about allot of fear of Communism and that Russia would cause a War with the United States. I felt sure that it would spread

3) The Cuban Missile Crises, holds special meaning to me because I was in the US Army at the time and put on Alert to go to Cuba if need be to fight Our bags were packed, trucks loaded and ready to depart to the air strip.I remember calling home and telling my Mom I may be going, It was scary for a young boy of 18,

4) President John F Kennedy's assassination is another very vivid memory for me, I had just moved off the Army base with my new Bride,In Clarksville Tennessee, the Delivery man was hauling in our TV set and said to us, The President was just shot, That really floored me, Again I was on alert and ordered back to base for briefing on what may happen next.
I for one Like President Kennedy, he was sharp, young and knew what the people wanted,

5) Lyndon B Johnson, to me was a shifty,not to be trusted President, I did not like his politics

6) Vietnam, was a sad time for america, we got dragged into a war that was not just, many of my friends lost there lives there. We fought not to win, but placate politicos,

7) We owned an Emerson TV, and before entering military service in 1962, we watched, The Ed Sullivan show, Ozzie and Harriet, Our Miss brooks, Disney Series, Wrestling, Steve Allan talk show,
American Bandstand. These shows were family oriented, had variety, non-violent, fun,

8) Martin Luthar King jr, was a non violent activist for Civil Rights, I recall racial tensions and one incident in Brooklyn where the National Guard had to be called to quell the rioting. I enjoyed the I have a dream speach and the March was a successful one, I do believe that King made great strides for civil rights for Blacks, I admire him and his works,
9)The 1960's were a turbulant time for many women, what with the burning of the Bra's and equal rights in the work place etc, it turned men on there ear, Women, going from passive to aggressive and standing up for themselves led to a rethinking by men as to a womans role in society.

10) Ah, The Festival at Wood Stock, What a wild drug crazed event,, NO I did not attend, thought about it briefly but realized the sheer folly to even attempt it,.To be honest, the free love aspect intriqued me some but not to a great extent, I was never into the Drug culture so was not in tune with the youth movement at the time, Did not really approve of what they were doing, then again I was Married and in my late 20's had 2 kids, a job, and settled

Hope I helped you with this,? if not , hey I enjoyed taking a trip down memory lane, Best of Luck
