I think there were many drinks at least that didn't deserve to be discontinued. Sprite Remix berryclear was one of my favorite sodas and it was discontinued years ago. There also used to be the Cherry Rush flavor of Gatorade. I don't know if anyone ever heard of these, but I think there was a clear fruit drink called "Mediterranean Clear" or something. I remember some of the flavors and tastes and if I were to see one again, I'd quickly buy it. Those were some of my favorite drinks. So are there any other foods or drinks that you miss? _________________

Two Words:
McDonald's Pizza
For those of you too young to remember, YES, McDonald's once had PIZZA. And it was ORGASMIC. They discontinued it for some reason, despite its awesomeness.... I think it had something to do with it slowing down kitchen production too much... I personally believe that Pizza Hut paid McDonald's a boat-load of money to get out of the Pizza business. I have absolutely no proof of this though, lol.
But seriously.. How I wish they'd bring back that Pizza. _________________

Wow, I remember this. It was never in my area and I was far too young to travel so I never got to eat it. _________________

Those were discontinued? FUCK, I loved those things |
As far as I know these still exist. They are the ones with a little creme/icing in the middle right? Pretty sure these show up in the office vending machine time to time.
Dunkaroos were the shit! I used to eat the cookies, and icing seperatly.
There are countless cereals that I miss, but by far the one that gets my #1 missed food has to be...
Its from '88, only lasted a year. I can still distinctly recall the exact flavor. Was so good
Quote: | The cereal was star-shaped and cinnamon-flavored. The Swedish Chef was pictured on the box, with the words: "Live! From the Muppet Test Kitchens" and "No batteries necessary." On the sides and back, the Chef introduced games and "eating directions." |
EDIT OMG I love teh youtubes... Croonchies commercial from back then _________________

Ha, Dunkaroos, those were indeed delicious.
Here's my most missed:
Seriously, French Toast Crunch was 100 times better than Cinnamon Toast Crunch and it was discontinued... why?!? Why wouldn't they continue selling it for me? _________________

This JUST IN!
Dunkaroos are still available in certain areas of the Canadian and American marketplace, but only two flavors (cinnamon cookies with vanilla sprinkle frosting and honey graham cookies with chocolate frosting) are still made.
I got it from Wikipedia!!! they are still made. The best snack of my childhood is still made! _________________
