McRib - yes, they were available for a limited time just recently but I miss having those whenever I want.
McD's Original Apple Pie
Mc Donald's Triple Cheeseburger
Dill Pickle flavored Lays Potato Chips - one of my favorites.
Tato Skins - loooved those.
Cheetos Balls
Ben & Jerry's Rainforest Crunch Ice Cream - was the best.
Crystal Pepsi
Never had KFC's Chicken littles but friends keep telling me they were awesome. I'd love to try those.
Hey Claws
What was in the rainforest crunch ice cream? Sounds intriguing.
For me, I miss SOS Cough Drops. They were little hard coated balls of aniseed, like gobstoppers but once you crunch through the outer layer, they were chewy and sticky and totally delicious.
I miss the South African version of 'Bubble Yum' bubblegum ~ the grape flavour's taste made your mouth go crazy. :smile:

It had lots of nuts in 'em. Cashews and brazil nut buttercrunch chunks in Vanilla Ice Cream. I think it was discontinued in the late 90s.
Black Jack chewing gum. It was a black licorce flavored gum.
Candy Cigs. Particularly the ones that are gum and actually "smoke".
Wacky Wafers. I loved these as a kid
West Soy Chocolate Soy Milk - The only good soy milk in existence. It tasted better than regular milk!
The KFC Double-Down! It's still available in the States, but here in Canada it's gone. :bluesad:
I only ever tried it once, and I loved it. I'm a really skinny guy, so I can afford to eat it. But how can this not look good?

When Taco Bell had those cantina-style tacos, they were the closet to the real thing I tell's ya!
Reese's Cookie Peanut Butter Cups.
And I haven't seen these in awhile.

Was it Vanilla Coke or Coke With Lemon that was taken off the market? One of those I think, I liked them both.

I could SWEAR I saw some in the gas station recently.
I used to live on Ben & Jerry's Rainforest Crunch Ice Cream in college. Killed me when they discontinued it.
I love the original peanut butter snickers, without caramel, just nougat and peanut butter. Also I loved the PBMax candy bar. Wonka candies use dto sell something called oompa loompas. THey were a giant M&M with half peanut butter half chocolate...sort of the "Them" radiated offspring of an M&M and a Reeses Piece.
I see a theme here.

When I was a little kid they used to have Sky Blue Raspberry ice cream at Baskin Robbins. Out of all the flavors they had, guess which one they decided to discontinue?
I don't think it's discontinued, just that the supermarket rarely has it, and I can't even remember the last time I had it.
Mint Moose Tracks ice cream. Goodness. I love mint chocolate chip ice cream anyway, but replace the chocolate chips with moose tracks fudge and, oh man, I have to find some tonight.
TAco Bell Chilli Cheese burritos

These were sort of suped-up Pop Tarts. They had more filling, flakier crusts, and generally were much better than Pop Tarts.
Pop Tarts survived; Danish Go-Rounds didn't.
Life is unfair sometimes.
only available in Netherlands, but Surge! I want me some mo of that good stuff. :bluesad:
My favorite Ice cream parlor discontinued my favorite ice cream flavor- Coffee and Doughnuts.

To be fair-once inna blue moon,the party store here in town will have this display that sells Black Jack,Clove...and the other one that I fergit the name....but it just kinda comes and goes agin... :bluesad:
Mini breakfast Hot Pockets
The McDonald's Chocolate Banana milkshake ( I swear it wasn't a dream)
KFC's tender roast chicken - the KFC by my house still has a giant picture of it on the wall
Quaker stopped making banana bread oatmeal! Now there's only banana in a kid's' variety pack of mix-in flavors and its crappy and some obscure specialty banana oatmeal that's not sold in any stores within 50 miles of my house as far as I can tell. If you ask me, bananas and oatmeal are an obvious match, they go together like peanut butter and jelly, why the heck is it so hard to find banana oatmeal? Yeah, I can get bananas separately and mix them into my oatmeal, but it's not the same and I can't very well call that "instant" oatmeal.
My saddest food loss is Keebler's Magic Middles. Those were so good. They had plain and chocolate chip and they were filled with gooey chocolate! I don't know anyone that didn't like them!
RIP

That was the little chickens on the rolls kind of like a chicken slider. I seem to remember them back in the 80's and I loved those more then the chicken.
Hmmm, McDonald's Homestyle Burger. I don't know if it is actually discontinued but I can't get them anymore where I am at in OK.
Those Oreo Wafer bars.
Not that it is discontinued but I miss the Whopper for a dollar deal you used to be able to get at times.

I loved those and yes, they were superior to pop tarts.
In primary school I used eat a popsicle (paddle pop) type of ice creamon a stick called Goofy Pops or something like that. They were blue and had a flavour I've never tasted before.
Man, I LOVED those things! I don't understand why they stopped making them.

I just thew up, THANKS!!! Seriously, do you know how much MSG is in KFC food?? After you've ate there, I don't think I'd even let you p**s in my toilet!!
You know what I miss?
Cheese Croutons.
Seriously, they had them when I was a kid (and I could eat a whole freaking box full.. mom always had to HIDE them from me.) But I have NOT seen them since.
Yes, they have cheese and garlic croutons, but I haven't seen plain old CHEESE croutons.
Mr. T cereal was decent.
The dodo. Why did God discontinue these? We need more poultry options!
Yummy Mummy cereal. Coconut YOO-HOO was very tasty. Leroy and Earls pork rinds were very good. Rum Raisen Haagen Daaz ice cream. BBQ flavored Munchos potato crisps were the bomb lol

I hear they taste like passenger pigeon.
Years ago, I don't remember how old I was, KFC brought out a BBQ chicken version here in Australia.
That was the most delicious chicken I'd ever tasted and I constantly bugged my parents to buy. Alas, they stopped making it. :bluesad:
For a long time I lamented its absence, but now that I'm vegetarian, I couldn't care less. :wink:

I know this might gross out some people but I can't understand why local chocolate manufacturers stopped making orange flavoured chocolate: I could eat that all day. :smile:

You can buy a Terry's Chocolate Orange which is chocolate made with orange oil and shaped like an orange. It's an English product I believe

Well then, don't forget to include a food allergy warning on pickled Dodo eggs. Remember what they did to poor Rock Roll... :bouncegiggle:
I just thought about another. They used to have these Cheddar Saltines. I can't remember think Nabisco made them. Anyway, they had a little cheese flavor and were nice to dunk in tomato soup. (Eating tomato soup now) Would like some of those to dunk in this soup now.
Good call. I remember those as well. They went really good with tomato soup indeed!
It might still be out there somewhere but Cheetos recently had an awesome barbeque flavor at one point. Haven't seen it for months.
It's not discontinued I don't think, but it's really hard to find a Wonka bar anymore. Only in select gas stations.

Let me guess, you "pitied the fool" who didn't try it, right? :wink:
Cereals? I used to love Rice Krinkles, which I used to wolf down in the mid 1970's. It was so sweet-you let it sit in milk for about 10 minutes and man, what a treat!
As far as popsicles, Popsicle used to sell these root beer flavored pops that had two sticks, and the lemon-lime ones were good too. They don't seem to sell em' anywhere, anymore.
There was also an ice cream pop that was shaped like a little circle with a ghostie kind of face on them. They were called "Burr Blobs." And then there was the "Fudgo" which was a great-tasting fudge popsicle that I've never forgotten to this day.
All of the above mentioned popsicle and fudge-pop stuff used to be available at the old Pulsinelli's general store in Old Lebanon, NJ, my birthplace and love of my life. What a great little town it was, and still is. That, and old Clinton, New Jersey.
If they still make these I haven't seen them..

Indeed they were good! In either chocolate or the vanilla-chocolate swirl, these were another great treat. A little too small though, they needed to be bigger. And, there were all those great commercials with Bill Cosby to promote them! :bouncegiggle:
