Pizza Spins were a crunchy, pinwheel-shaped snack from General Mills, popular in the late 1960s and early 1970s, flavored with cheese, tomato, and pizza spices, but were discontinued around 1975, leaving nostalgic fans wanting them back. They were described as addictive, bite-sized, and a unique take on the popular pizza trend of the era, even winning a Putman Food Award.

Key Details:
