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

[Coffee Druid]

Bacardi frozen daiquiri mixers, which were big in the ‘90s but have been long discontinued. I enjoyed the virgin drinks I made with those when I was a child.

I work at place that sells liquor, and we very much have those Bacardi mixers in our freezer right now (plus their Margherita mix and maybe one other kind). They're in cans like frozen orange juice concentrate comes in.

Oh, my. They stopped selling them in the grocery stores in my part of the country. Maybe I need to hit an honest liquor store to find them.

Cereal straws were fantastic, but milk flavor straws are my cup of tea. These aren't discontinued, more or less just significantly more scarce:


As for actually discontinued snacks:






These aren't discontinued, but the recipe changed and all life was instantly drained from it. I could eat an entire box of this pizza by myself. Now I can barely stomach it.

Okay these seem kinda nasty to me in retrospect because they were essentially filled with a chicken paste but before they disappeared they were my favorite Tina's burrito

Same with Totino's Party Pizzas which suck now that they're square. Well, tbh they just plain always sucked and can barely be described as pizza, but I still found them a guilty pleasure.

Lessee...Little Keeblers Pizzeria Chips, Mtn Dew Pitch Black II, Peanut Butter Kisses(Which I heard are finally making a comeback at some point), proper Ecto-Cooler(it's tastiest from the old metal cans), The Big'N'Tasty from McDonalds and Chex Mix that had peanuts in it. Sure, they all shifted to the bottom of the bag but they were covered in flavor dust.

Shows how much I miss Jeno's Pizza for it's simplicity.

I loved them as a kid. Use to eat them all the time

Fire was the best one.

 

[Burd Turglar]

I seriously miss Koolerz gum, shit was legit cold when you started chewing it.
Just thought about that ish over the weekend.

I can't remember a single discontinued food I used to like. Stop being fat

 

[Sugriva]

As a fat kid, this thread is bringing a tear to my eye... Thank you grandma for always providing me with the most disgusting and calorie-dense frozen microwave bullshit that money could buy. I still have a soft spot for nasty frozen meals to this day.

Anyways, does anybody remember Wazoo bars? It feels like they existed for only a single month before vanishing off the face of the planet.

They'd probably taste like teeth-rotting devil's feces if I had them today, but kid me thought they were edible crack.

Jesus, those things look they're early to the whole "unicorn" food craze.

That said I did some research into the bar itself and apparently the company that produced the bar went into bankruptcy shortly after production.

This is another not a specific food but a restaurant chain. I miss Arthur Treacher's and Howard Johnson's (particularly the one on Times Square). HJ is basically entirely dead at this point and while you'll find the occasional Arthur Treacher's-branded thing inside another business, it isn't the same and is also basically dead.

Specifically, I miss HJ's fried clams.

My brain immediately said BUT ANOM, THERE IS AN ARTHUR TREACHER'S SOMEWHERE IN CENTRAL CALIFORNIA...

...but then I researched and realized it's an H. Salt, Esq. and it's in Sacramento. Fuck to the no.

Miss the s’more bar. It’s was awesome and I use to eat them all the time as a kid. I also miss butterfinger BB

I kinda miss these too, but not as much as I miss the original Bar None.

There is one single freestanding Arthur Treacher's left in existence, and it's in an Akron, Ohio suburb called Cuyahoga Falls. I wonder what that must be like to own that business.

Probably a fucking trip. It's weird how many old chains only a few stores left. Like damn it, I bought this franchise and I'm going down with the ship!

For instance Rax Roast Beef only has like 8 locations left (and most of them are in...Ohio).

Pack your bags @AnOminous - we're going on a road trip to Ohio for roast beef sandwiches and fish and chips.

Oreo Cakesters. They were like mini stuffed oreo cakes, and they were good.

Don't forget to check out the last White Tower on earth in Toledo!
