Remember 1992's iconic collaboration between SpaghettiOs and the “Where’s Waldo?” book series? Given the success of its run in the '90s, it's no surprise that Campbell's is bringing back cans of o-shaped pasta mixed with various "Where's Waldo"-inspired pasta shapes in a fun and engaging game for our kids while they eat. SpaghettiOs' New "Where's Waldo?" Collaboration Campbell's So why is Waldo back? According to a Campbell’s rep, “SpaghettiOs delights nostalgia-loving millennials—and so does Waldo. Many of those original fans who enjoyed ‘Where’s Waldo?’ SpaghettiOs as children will be excited to share this experience with their own kids.” What can kids digging into a bowl of “Where’s Waldo?” SpaghettiOs for the first time expect? A hide-and-seek adventure along the lines of what we enjoyed back in the ‘90s. The goal is still to find Waldo, but this edition's noodle shapes include Waldo's tousled head, his dog Woof, a striped shirt, and a beanie, in addition to the standard Os—all doused in a creamy tomato and cheese sauce. SpaghettiOs provide a wholesome meal, packed with essential nutrients and vegetables, that's sure to be a treat for both kids and those of us who were born between 1981 and 1996. But if we're being honest with ourselves, we’re not eating SpaghettiOs to hit our daily count of vitamins. For that, we’d frankly be more likely to make our own. Instead, we’re cracking open a can for a taste of comforting nostalgia that we can share with our kids—and that we might end up hoarding just for ourselves. Was this page helpful?
