first thing i thought of

http://www.popsicle.com/products/store_locator.cfm

Say what you will, but this link helped me find some Jello Pudding Pops just this past summer. Give it a shot.


I also have been unsuccessful in finding Planters Cheese Balls lately. No other brand comes close.


Oh man, I remember those too.. Planters Cheese Balls are so good. I miss the peanut butter jello pudding pops too :(

I have a couple of boxes of Strawberry Mini-Wheats in my house. I was at Big Lots a few months ago and bought every box they had. I love that cereal.

Just thought of another we used to get : Ice Cream Cone Cereal

At least I think that's what it was called.

Boo-Berry cereal. Turn your toilet blue!

This is still readily available.

Frankenberry is much harder to find.

Wow, I remember it being the opposite, but maybe that's the way it was in Canada.

They were about to expire when I got them, $2.99 each. Though my Mom had a few boxes of the Blueberry that she gave me when I graduated college in 2003 that had a date from the early 90's on them and they tasted as great as they always did.

My list is:
Pizzarias
Hoopla's (ring corn chips)
Tootsie Drops (Tootsie Pops without the stick.)
Bonkers

I'm sure there are a few more I'm forgetting.

Quake cereal. Quisp was ok, but Quake was better.

Does Chef-boy-r-dee still produce that pizza in a box thing, where you make your own pizza?

Remember when Burger King had ham-n-cheese sandwiches? Those were good.

Call me crazy, but one of the few things from McDonalds I ever really liked was the Arch Deluxe.

I am a BIG fan of pizza. It is my favorite food. Ever. Tied with chicken (in the fried and/or wing variety). I went to Europe when I was in high school, and I expected to have some darn fine pizza in Italy. Nope. I didn't like the pizza in Italy at all. The best pizza I had in Europe was at a McDonalds in Florence - good old New York style. Some street vendor in Nice came in second place. The rest is not really worth mentioning. Maybe I just got unlucky though, because all of the good pizza places around here are owned by Italians.

There was a time about 10 years ago when 7-Eleven sold pizza. I'm pretty sure it didn't make it past the test-market stage. Probably because the ovens were either too expensive or took up too much space. Maybe because they charged $2 for the equivalenty of a slice of pizza when you could go to a pizza place and get a slice for a buck. I don't know. But it was surprisingly good pizza. I worked there, and the pizza had to be thrown away after an hour in the warmer if it wasn't sold. I ate... a lot of hour-old pizza. I wish I could still get that stuff.

They have snackers now which are bite sized sandwiches, but they're $1 (or $1.29)
