The original Alphabet cereal. Not this sugar coated crap they sell nowadays.

Also, C-3PO cereal from the 80s. I can't say I've ever found anything that tastes the same.

QFC used to make seltzer water flavored like root beer, Dr. Pepper (it was called "Hint of the Doctor Flavor which is downright hilarious), and cola. The product line was discontinued due to lack of popularity and I miss it every day.

I miss Kmart and Kmart's Smart Sense low calorie lemonades: https://i.imgur.com/W0DzcZS.jpeg

They tasted so.. weird.. but man I loved em. We bought all of them when stores were closing. Still have a few in the garage for rainy days.

Bassett's Wine Gums. After Eight. Had they only been discontinued, I would be almost fine with it. But the packages are still in the stores, filled with off-brand weak copies of the original products. Fuck Mondelez and Nestlé and everything they stand for. Not just because of this, but especially because of this.

There was a sort of yogurt cup that was very spongy, not quite cheese cake thick but close. It was delicious and i forgot what it's called.

Looked it up just now and it might be the Yoplait Whips, but the container is different from what i remember (obv they changed it like all others).

I don't think i could find that in a local store though

When I was a super young kid, I remember going to the store occasionally, where my mom would rarely buy me these yogurt gummy candies as a treat. I absolutely loved them, they were delicious. However, they were discontinued or something like 20 years ago. There isn’t much I wouldn’t do to get more of them. I’d even make them myself if I could find a recipe.

I think the brand name was Campinos. IIRC they were mostly a hard candy brand, but those soft candies were a million times better than any other candy I could have had as a kid.

Edit: I just googled them since they were on my mind. It seems like they’re out of stock everywhere but here’s a product listing https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/campino-yogourt-gummies-120g/10192347

Quaker Crunchy Corn Bran was a cereal that had a terrible name, but was SO yummy. Puffins are similar, but not quite right.

Ocean Spray made a Cranberry Key Lime cocktail for a very short while and I loved it.

Eggo used to make a Nutragrain version, and since I only eat toaster waffles with peanut butter and syrup, I couldn't taste the difference and it made for a healthier breakfast.

I have nostalgia for things like Clearly Canadian and Orbitz, but pretty sure I wouldn't actually like them anymore.

I was going to say Snapple Elements, but apparently they're back on shelves within the last month.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Does it count if they still make the product but something changed so it doesn't taste the same anymore? If yes I definitely miss Termix don't know what they did but it's not the same. Also am lactose intolerant so can't really eat it anymore anyway. There's probably more things but this one I remember the most, also Pribináček.

Dunkin Donuts movie tie-in drink from Men in Black 3. I think I got one every day for the 3 months it existed.

Brisk fruit punch and sidekicks garlic alfredo spaghetti. Sad days when those were discontinued

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

The sidekicks garlic alfredo is still sold at walmart, I have some in my cupboard currently.

I’d say Planter’s Cheez Balls and lime green skittles, but people wised up and brought those back recently.

Quaker corn bean crunch

It was always a favorite cereal but always super expensive compared to other cereals so I only bought it occasionally. It got discontinued a few years ago.
