I used to drink coke from individually numbered gold plated bottles, they were the most delicious beverages I have ever had.

I ate one of those for each day in 6th and 7th grade. I loved them until I burnt out on them.

It's sitting available in my office breakroom's vending machine as i type...good stuff.

As for the lost items i remember, what about OJ's, that old breakfast cereal? I used to love that cereal, and who know it was shaping me to be a murderer (allegedly)...and i always enjoyed Cima Red...much smoother than Big Red.

OMG. I haven't seen that product name in years. Really good stuff. Zotz, not sure if they still make it or not, and the marathon bar.

Nice one!

I'm pretty sure I have seen Zonkers in a Dollar Tree store recently.

As for Bonkers, one of my favorites as a kid. The did a remake not too long ago, but not as good. I still can picture the TV ad, "Some folks think Bonkers is guuuuum."

One thing I remember about Ecto Cooler is that the stuff in juice boxes was CLEAR. Maybe the coloring was too expensive to waste, but if you squeezed it out of the box, it was not green.

One of my lingering regrets in life is that I never got to each a TMNT Pie. "They're filled with mutegen ooze. That's vanilla pudding dude. (something about a flaky crust) and they're green like us. TMNT pies: straight from the sewers to you!"

Wow this thread took off!

I remember a lot of these, what great memories!

Mt. Dew LiveWire is still readily available around these parts, I think it was seasonal at first because they couldn't get it to last longer than a few months.. they finally perfected it and offer it all year around (in the midwest at least).

The burple thing sounds promising SpecialK, I would really need to see a picture to confirm though.

They've made that into a "normal" Dorito flavor now. Yay!

I'll give another vote for "yeah, that sounds right".

I remember Pizza Hut selling that type of container full of Pepsi also.

Oh HELLS YES!

But cookies&cream were great.
