Schöller Pirulo Jungly

Loved it, this was my favorite Schöller ice!

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.

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.

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.

Taco Bell Enchirito, it comes back sometimes but very rarely.

Ruffles Flavor Rush Big BBQ and Cheddar potato chips.

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.

Cruncheroos

Maruchan Jalapeno Cheddar Instant Lunch

Waffle Crisp. Not the new one the original from '99ish

Cola Vanilla

Bear Valley pemican bars. 450 calories in the size of a cliff bar and honestly pretty good tasting. Dry so you needed water but had good flavor.

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.

They only answer I'd ever give.

Buitoni Instant Pizza

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

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.

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

Morton Mini Donuts, covered in sugar n cinnamon. Pop in the oven, crisp and hot. Haven't seen them since the mid 80s. Sad

Polly waffles

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

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.

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

I don’t know if it’s discontinued or not sold in the US anymore, but there used to be this European cereal called Pocketini that was square’s filled with chocolate. Kellogg'scame out with cheap rip off that had much less and waxy tasting chocolate and smaller squares that just sucks.

Croissant Pockets. Hot Pockets also had a Beef and Cheddar flavor a long time ago and whatever equivalent they have now is not the same.

Smart Foods also used to have a spicy cheese popcorn but they changed it to an even hotter version. I can barely taste the cheese now. Bring back the original!

McSkillet burrito, so yummy :(
