Now you've gotten me thinking about all the things I loved as a kid. And have been severely disappointed in as an adult.
Topping the list: Moxie. Tastes like cigarettes, now. Not smoking them...eating them.
But even Root Beer is just not making it anymore after a sip or two.
Cream soda? Nope. Can't drink it anymore.
And don't get me started on Birch Beer.

Never had Moxie. Sounds delightful. 
thinking about things I liked as a kid, some stayed with me (Slim Jims) some not so much (Boston Baked Beans and red "licorice"),

Well, to the best of my knowledge, the only reason I ever drank Moxie was because of Mad Magazine. :p
Twizzlers are...strange. I think the play with the formula, or maybe they're made in different plants with different recipes. Sometimes they taste the way they did when I was kid, sometimes they're overly "plastic".
But I tend more toward the chocolate ones than the red ones.

Chocolate Twizzlers? Never heard of chocolate Twizzlers until now. The black ones I've had were a horrid licorice flavor.

Yep. 
The ones that say "made with real Hershey chocolate" are too chocolatey, but the regular ones are ok. If they're not stale.
Oh, and the spearmint ones were fun. I haven't seen them in years, though. The green ones nowadays are sour apple flavored.

Yummm. Chocolate flavored preservatives.

Preservatives or not, these things are great!

I wouldn't know. Never had one. They just look fake as can be. They don't look edible.
But YOLO! So, go for it.

At first I thought you were referring to the mini-girl-scout type brownie - the thought was unpleasant on any of so many levels.
Primarily, based upon you photo, imagining you in the little brown uniform, complete with beret and sash.
Excuse my while I was my eyes out with soap and go searching for a snack cake.
Meanwhile, I've decided to not even post this.

Good. Because I will not even read it.

Any time I hear of Cosmic Browies, I can't help but think of the Grateful Dead, which oddly enough are coming to town in a few weeks. I am certain the Cosmic Browies there will truly live up to their name (along with the magic burritos)

If you can remember, the burritos weren't that cosmic.

Never ate space cake myself though.

I has been said many times that be able to code does not necessarily make you a programmer/developer. I just realised that I am one of those people who can write code that works pretty well. I'm not always proud of my methods (don't mean methods as in procedures) and design, most of the time I do whatever works. I get my code to work by any means necessary. I guess I am not a programmer/developer even though that is the my official position at work.
Question is who/what am I?

English is not my first language (my first language is VB). After googling the meaning of "pragmatic" all I can say is "thank you".

Explaining your perplexed state - as certainly VB doesn't lend itself to programming.

I suppose - if your original programming language was pig-Latin.
