From '03 to '06, there was a guacamole flavored Dorito. Best bag snack I've ever had.

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

Monster has a line of canned coffee-like products they call their Java series. One of them was Swiss Chocolate flavored. It is discontinued, always separated, left an awful sludge in the bottom of the can, but I loved those things.

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.

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

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.

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

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!

Coco Rocks were the best thing ever.

I have also heard good things about Cheese Moments, although I've never experienced them myself

Tic Tac Icegloo https://www.produkt.at/produkte/detail/id/10734/

I discovered these in my childhood before I discovered ordinary tic tacs, but they were discontinued soon after.

Mountain Dew Throwback. As far as I can tell it hasn't been fully discontinued, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere around me. It used real sugar instead of corn syrup. I hate the basic, corn syrup stuff but thought the throwback stuff tasted pretty good.

Archway Rocky Road cookies. It was their best variety by far, but they discontinued them.

No one is going to say it? Really now.

I miss the Twinkies. Not the cloud cakes. Not the bitter chemicals they sell called Twinkies. The actual american decadent sponge cake with a cream center.

Also, my father used to buy circus peanuts around the same time every year, when I was a boy. I don't know the flavor, but it wasn't fake banana that's common now.
