The "Rich and Savoury" flavour of Nissin Bowl Noodles. I hate their hot and spicy flavours.

Definitely agree there, and that reminds me. My favorite noodles haven't been made for almost 15 years now. Tomato Maruchan noodles were awesome. Couldn't find a picture, but I found a failed petition. There's a Facebook petition group that made it above 500 members.
Really I'd love for them to bring it back, but it seems they're too busy adding sriracha flavor to things. Or putting shrimp flavor where it doesn't belong.

Do they still stock lime coke? I've abstained from sodas so I'm not up-to-date on what's in the soda aisle these days.
I also loved this:
(it's now back as a shittier variation)
And this:
(if I went back in time, it'd probably taste fucking nasty)

Jolt was great. I drank that shit all the time as an asshole teen until this run where the 20 ozs kept turning out flat as hell and then energy drinks became a thing and Jolt went away.

I miss the old Wonka Everlasting Gobstoppers. They used to be bigger, big enough you couldn't just chew through them, they were actually hard enough to be considered jawbreakers. They had three different colors of layers, rather than the two thin ones they have now. They use to be hard to get out of the box opening because they were so large. I remember when it changed and I felt so cheated because the box was the same size, but it had these little bitty candies in it then.
And they changed Gardettos. It used to have these little sesame covered crunchy bits in it, and they've disappeared from the mix.
Also Spree. Not the chewy ones, just regular Spree candy in the rolls. There were a bunch of candies that came in long rolls-Spree (chewy and regular), Sweet-Tarts, and a couple of others. I never see them anymore.

ETA: Not so much for the food itself, but Crispy Critters counts for its batshit commercial jingle:

Nothing like the version our parents had, that's for sure.
Would you believe they once had a cartoon featuring this guy (and Sugar Bear)?

I used to chew those up anyway. I still chew up Atomic Fireballs.
Not the ones that couldn't even fit in a box, but the old style they had in the box before they were these nothing things.

These were fucking metal. Yes, other cheese balls exist. No, they're not the same. Not even close.
Your plain, flavorless bitch cheese balls would be destroyed by Planters Cheese Balls. They were a delicious roadside bomb of cheese and salt, and they had this texture that you just can't quite get with the others.
There is literally no data I can find anywhere about why Planters discontinued them in 2006. They just vanished.
Farewell, beloved bar food. You will be missed.

It's a shame when companies do that out of whatever beancounter sales predictions they get. A lot of it is under the expectation they don't sell enough while at the same time pissing off long-time customers who think otherwise. This has happened many times before. Good examples include Crown Pilot Crackers, Uneeda Biscuits, Postum and Hydrox Cookies. Of course the last two managed to get saved if only out of fan-related efforts, but it often tends to be the fate for many when the need for them simply dries up. I suppose Planters felt they had to focus on their name output, nuts!

The same could be said for other products as well. Art supplies tend to come and go I find over the years, I still miss my Spectracolor pencils for instance. I'm glad they brought back the Blackwing 602 since I never did use it the first time around in the 90's.

Maruchan had Cheese Ramen, they were at my local Kroger and Wal-Mart, and then since have disappeared.
Really not good though.
