It's been a looooong time, but I wish they'd bring back Taco flavored Doritos. It was one of the original flavors, before Cool Ranch even. I think this was the second flavor there ever was.

I think they were much later down the road.. it was Nacho Cheese and Cool Ranch.. then they came out with the 'taco bell' taco flavor which quickly turned into just Taco if I recall correctly.. I could be way off.

About 2 months ago I remembered them and drove to the grocery store specifically to buy some. None to be found. I checked around online, and they've been discontinued for years.

My depression was epic.

sams club had some flattend pretzels. pretzel chips. my kids love them. we had some just the other day, i'll find a link for them.

Costco has them too, they're pretty good with some sort of dip.

Pixie stix (straws filled with sugary flavored powder)
Tiny wax soda bottles filled with syrup stuff (best if chewed up )
Bottle caps (rootbeer flavored round discs candies)
Chocolate soldiers (the real chocolate drink, yo ho is a lousy wannabe)

I loved those wax coke bottles. Other candies that came to mind that you can't find anymore is Bonomo's Turkish Taffy and Mary Janes.

Such an evil heinous idea, but they tasted good.......kind of like a raw sugar with faint hint of peppermint....they were even better when they went a little stale and got a little chewy.

I also remember candy cigarettes made out of chocolate wrapped in paper that made them look like cigarettes. My favorite though was bubblegum cigars.

 

[jcwagers]

Long John Silver's Flatbread Sandwiches
Arby's Roast Chicken Santa Fe Sandwich

 

[CrackRabbit]

Gum with soda syrup flavored centers. I remember there being 3 flavors, Coke, Sprite and Dr. Pepper. Dr. Pepper was my favorite.
And the many many sodas that have come and gone...
Crystal Pepsi
OK Soda
Surge
RC Max Edge
Pepsi Holiday Spice (yes I actually liked it)

I think those are/were called Nickel-Nips. I remember MaryJanes too, weren't they peanut butterish in some way in a yellow wrapper?

Tato Skins would be #1 for me.

Oh's (cereal) is a close second -- I can't find it in Northern VA. But everytime I go back to Virginia Beach to visit my parents, I always snag a few boxes to bring back with me.

Eh? At the campus McD's I swear I've seen it...

And the campus Subway currently has a "Chophouse Barbeque Pork" that tastes similar.

I can still find them, thankfully though, the price hasn't skyrocketed like the real thing (30 cents vs $6).

Where can you get them? I thought they were all discountinued because they didn't want kids to smoke. They were very tasty.

I know the mom and pop party store on the corner by our house still sells them.

I haven't seen them at any big name stores for a long time though.

I wish they'd go back to the original flavor mix of the Taco and Pizza Doritos... The flavor mix from when they were still "Taco Bell" Doritos and "Pizza Hut" Doritos.

They're just not the same now... IMO at least.

 

[BassBomb]

BK Chicken Whopper Biggest chicken burger i recall eating, now they onyl have some cheap grill burger which is much smaller and not as tasty... at least around where i am (theres very minimal BK's)

 

[Soundmanred]

You can still find alot of these, some are just more regional than others like the Livewire. As far as candy goes, you usually have to go to a candy specific store to find them. You can get most of the candy mentioned here at those stores.(Usually in malls).
Bottlecaps, Mary Janes and Candy Cigarettes to name a few are some I've seen recently. I have to go there to get the good cola bottle gummies.

Edit: Pepsi Holiday Spice was barf in a can. IMO of course.

I love Gummi Colas. We have a store that sells large ones, each one is about 4" tall. I got a big package of candy cigarettes a couple of years ago and they were NOT as good as I remember. Ended up throwing most of them out. These were the chalky kind.

I kind of liked Holiday Spice Pepsi. Coke Blak can burn in hell though.

 

[Special K]

I hope everyone saying Surge is aware of Vault, a drink that was released awhile back as a replacement. It's not exactly the same, but close enough.

 

[Emission]

I hope this never goes out of production:

A favorite of many, they've been in production for 10 years!

We had a few cases of that stuff right when it went out of style and couldn't give it away. Ended throwing them out in the trash.

 

[Platypus]

How did I miss the Orbitz thing, man that was crazy.

 

[Juice Box]

BK Broiler (It was replaced by the 'Chicken Whopper'....which, in my opinion, was no where near the original broiler )
Crystal Pepsi (dunno why, it was just cool)
Koala Yummies (had the chocolate ones all the time as a kid...those were delicious)
Squeeze-Its (god they tasted bad, but they were pure sugar so I didn't mind )


My all time favorite candy that is difficult to find these days: Chewy Runts.....there are only a handful of gas stations in IL that I know stocks them...sadly none are close to me

 

[Platypus]

Runts are horrible, esp the banana ones :|

Squeez-It wow.. I remember that. Tasted like metallic sugar water.

You actually liked Koala YumYums? omg they were vile.

JB whatsamattawityou!?
