Discontinued Foods That We Miss. - A memorial for those gone too soon.

[Dinosaur]

I know they have the normal chips still, but it just isn't the same as the stix.

 

[Amaranth]

They recently pulled GameFuel off store shelves here and replaced it with Mtn Dew Rise, people always said gamefuel tasted like sweet candy, but i really enjoyed the charged cherry burst

 

[Dubu Kimchi]

not so much discontinued but extremely rare to find and difficult to recreate from my experience; chocolate covered popcorn, and i'm not talking about a light drizzle of a chocolate sauce or a little baby dipping into a fountain, but the entire popped kernel coated in chocolate.
i had some of this golden shit from a foodstand one day while in the city back in 2013, i have yet to see anyone else make or even sell it since that day. nor do i know of a recipe that accurately represents what i had found or even comes close to the taste and texture online or through my odd experiments.
please come back magic foodstand man, teach me your secrets!

You might have a popcorn shop in your area that can help you out.

When I visited my parents in Texas, my Mom got some popcorn from this shop and it was shocking how good it was. I remember the chocolate coating being a bit thicker than what was in the pictures though. There might be something similar in your area.

The most tragic loss of the pandemic: McDonald's steak bagel. IMO the best item on McDonald's menu, breakfast or dinner. It was always a delight. I miss you, baby.

 

[Mamas boy]

Spoiler

If they still made these Lunchables I would live off of them. The cola was fucking amazing too.

 

[Citizen Dick]

E

Carnation Breakfast Bars. These will also never come back in all likelihood.

The first thing I thought about, too. Fucking loved those things when I was a kid.

 

[Shibaru]

I Used to drink this shit all the time back in the day, they've only stopped selling it by me ever since the Pandemic Began unfortunately, everywhere I look online says they no longer have it in stock or they no longer carry it, the Website says it still exists but that instacart "listing" is misleading as all fuck

 

[Kornula]

I miss those "Wow!" chips with Olestra, the fake fat that gave some people the shits. It didn't bother my gut, and that meant a giant bag of cheddar and sour cream Ruffles chips for like, 500 calories. It was great.

Also 7-Eleven used to have nikuman. They were packaged with generic 7-Eleven "Heat it in the store" paper but it was straight-up cheap Japanese convenience store style nikuman.

Olestra caused "anal leakage" not the shits exactly...but still funny

I always liked the reasoning behind GameFuel cans. Too much of a retard and flailing around because you suck at games? We let you seal your can up now faggot. Rise blows.

you can still order that shit online directly from Mountain Dew, I Ordered a 12 pack with Berry, Cherry and Orange like twice in the past and that shit was so good

 

[AnOminous]

I miss Jolt in the grenade cans that you could also re-seal.

It's probably just as well they're not still around, I'd probably have a heart attack pounding one of these down now.

Instacart has a listing for fiery habanero doritos. They were discontinued in 2010. It hurts to see that listing.

 

[Keine]

Maybe there's something wrong with me, but I really liked the old "after dark" Doritos flavors. In particular the cheeseburger one was weirdly good to me. I recall there was a buffalo flavored one at some point too.

On the note of buffalo-flavored things, the buffalo chicken sandwich from Subway was probably my single most favorite thing on their menu back when I was in school and they brought it back briefly, only to take it away again along with my interest in ever wanting to once more frequent a Subway.

The day Subway stops having chipotle sauce is the day I never have sudden cravings for shitty subs.

I just had one of those a couple weeks ago. Idk where you are but they're still around in NE Ohio. Or at least were until very recently and I haven't noticed yet

Pepsi Twist
It was just Pepsi and lemon, and I can just make my own with Coke and lime juice. But still.

 

[Nero You're DeadWeight]

I dunno if i brought it up or anyone else did but GOD I miss oreo cakesters so much.

 

[Grub]

Couldn't find a better picture, but Old Dutch's Rave Xtra Salt n vinegar chips.

They were so vinegary your mouth would be numb for like a half hour after eating a bag. Most salt n vinegar chips are so weak these days.

I think they got.discontinued because each bag had like 4 days worth of sodium in it or something. Like q ridiculous amount.

 

[Lemon Bark]

I have no idea if it's even around anymore but I have fond memories of SoBe's Liz Blizz flavor. I think it was just pina colada flavored or something equally mundane, but something about the glass bottle was appealing. I also miss guacamole Doritos and Bug City sour bug candy - the kind that came in a jar with little air holes.

They've been mentioned a thousand times but full agreement for sour tangerine Altoids and Dunkaroos, though I think they're back now. I've seen single serving Dunkaroos near checkouts and they also sell the jars of vanilla frosting for cakes now, but I think I'd probably find them too sweet.

SoBe still exists but it's become really hard to find, they also got rid of the glass bottles in favor of plastic ones.

And I had the recently-revived Dunkaroos again. The vanilla cookies are decent but I may have figured out why I didn't like the icing and it's the texture: it feels too grainy compared to my memories of the original icing.
