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

These things were so fucking good.

Now that I've read through this thread, I recognized some of the things mentioned here and I'll admit that some brought back memories (Sprite Remix, you were gone too soon).
As for my contribution, Subway seems to be a great offender.
Now, I'm not going to mention seasonal menu items like Buffalo Chicken subs but some of what I thought were mainstays.
Honey Oat Wheat Bread - For years, this was the go-to for one of my relatives whenever they went to Subway. They usually used it as the base for a Chicken Teriyaki sub. I can still see the disappointment on their face when I told them Subway took the bread off the menu.
Swiss Cheese - This one still burns me. I used Swiss cheese for some of the subs I ordered and when I heard that Subway was removing it from the menu items, my jaw dropped.

Dollar menu double cheeseburgers. Those were so good dipped in sweet and sour sauce.

When did you hear this?

Arby's Bac'n'Cheddar. Best sandwich ever. It's insane they discontiued it, which is like McShits killing off the Bic Mac or BK junking the whopper. It was their signature sandwich and they blew it. And for what? Shitty gyros and paninis. Fuckheads.

 

[Stary Szor]

There were these gummi fruit sharks that were really good

 

[5t3n0g0ph3r]

When did you hear this?

About two years ago.
And the Subways where I live still do not have Swiss cheese.

Anyone else remember Lays Cracker Crisps? They were super delicious.

They seriously removed something as basic as Swiss cheese?

Yes. Yes, they did.

EDIT:
And apparently it's not the first time they did this:

All my Subways offer now is shredded cheddar, provolone, and white American (and Parmesan, if you want to count that).

 

[Dom Cruise]

I mean, at least they still got provolone.

 

[5t3n0g0ph3r]

True. Still sucks, tough.

 

[Plunkie]

I actually missed back when McDonald's and Burger King were making those "angus" burgers. Sure, it was just probably some flavoring injected into the patties, but it made them taste actually decent for once.

Ah, the Subways near me still have Swiss.

ALERT: Maruchan Roast Beef Ramen is no longer available. I got a flat of like 36 from Amazon and when I was down to three, went to reorder. Nope. No food service supplier, online merchants or otherwise carry it anymore. RIP my hangover snack.

 

[Francis E. Dec Esc.]

These things were so fucking good.

I used to buy the Flintstones ones from my grade school cafeteria.

 

[Dysnomia]

The nacho cheese Combos. The cheddar ones are trash much like cheddar Goldfish. I have no idea why you see so many cheddar Combos and less bags of the other flavors. The nacho flavor was far better. Cheddar is bland.

Checked Amazon. It'll be back on May 8th.

Ever since the loss of fiery habanero doritos, I assume every spicy snack is going to be discontinued at some point. Closest I've gotten to tasty habanero chips is Herr's Habanero Ranch. This will be on the chopping block soon.

Oddly enough, that is sold at a store that also sells tons of boomer food like pig's feet. Guess it's popular with the 50+ crowd.

But not sliced cheddar, which is the appropriate cheese for roast beef.

I hate that I actually like subway, because they're actually a really shit sandwich shop.
