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

Anyone remember Sambo's? Literally from The Story of Little Black Sambo and the entire decor was that Negro child over and over and over again all over everything. I can't imagine why that wouldn't fly these days. It literally got renamed to "Chad's" after the George Floyd chimpouts.

Yeah but the guy who owns the place was/is named Chad.

And Sambo was Indian, not a Negro. Not that it makes it any better. And the illustrations didn't help.

(I went to the first/last Sambo's, now Chad's, sometime in the 90s.)

Crooked. A juice drink made by St Ides. Yes the makers of the world's most ghetto ass malt liquor made juice for a short time in the 90s. And it was really good.

Not sure why they stopped. Maybe parents were none too thrilled about the kiddies walking around with bottles of juice with the St Ides logo like it was a baby step to the real thing. Snoop Dog even promoted it in cartoon dog form:

Compare it to his regular St Ides commercial when he does his dog morphing thang:

For some reason, every single heroin addict I ever knew loved this St. Ides shit. What the fuck. At least it's a good signal. If you ever encounter someone who drinks that shit, up your guard. They are junkies and they will steal your shit.

South Beach Diet chicken wrap dinner packs.

 

[Goyslop Muncher]

Wendy's grilled chicken wraps. They were $1, and had godly macros, very nutritious. probably the best fast food that ever existed. I used to get a sack of them after the gym during my first semester at university. Then they disappeared. At least I can easily recreate them and get pretty close.

You know what I remembered today and am sad are gone? Planter's P.B Crisps.

They were so fucking good, especially the PB&J ones.

Quite a history though.

 

[LolRaccoon]

The original Mtn. Dew Game Fuel. It tasted great and I loved it. It's a shame they retired the original flavor and created an entire new line of drinks that use the same name

 

[Santa Fe Swag]

It's not food but the lemon Pepsi they released for a short time in 08 was God tier. I think it was part of some football promotion if I remember correctly.

Brand loyalty lol

Have any bongs seen cadburys marbles around? I seen they've brought them back but can't find them anywhere.

I think the commercial had the youngest girl from 7th Heaven. Did the Osbournes do one too?

 

[Nero You're DeadWeight]

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

SUPPOSIDLY they came back, but I can't find them anywhere. They brought back the nutter butter cakesters too.

 

[trailcamwhore]

And Sambo was Indian, not a Negro.

I've been pointing this out for almost half a century and it just won't stick. I show people the literal physical book from my childhood, and they can't assimilate it. They "know" better.

Any real rogue academics out there who are willing to get fired, please, write the How Sambo Became Black book. You'll be revered in death (maybe).

 

[Tranimal Farm]

Lilt, a soft drink made by Coca Cola only sold in the UK and Ireland. Basically pineapple flavored soda. Apparently it's still in business but I can never seem to find it in stores anywhere

Did they really came back? I know the Oreo-o cereal came back, hearing this now is news to me because I freaking loved those Oreo cakesters.

And speaking of Pepsi, does Pepsi Mango still exist? I don't see it anymore. I didn't buy it often because we have that stupid soda tax that I try to refuse to support.

Pepsi Mango is still being made! I saw it yesterday in a gas station, and a lot of it, too.

I make these things just by starting with a can of soda and then adding a very small amount of whatever extract.

The St. Ides tropical fruit drink booze, they only ever sold it in the shittiest stores, in nigger neighborhoods. We'd drink it when we were really young teenagers, like 14/15 because it tasted like fizzy koolaide and it was stronger than any beer. I remember grabbing a dozen of those and buying them from the local Vietnamese store owner who didn't give a shit that 15 year old's were buying alcohol.

This stuff: http://www.sogoodblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Special-Brew.jpg

It's literally fruity drink for people who want to get drunk but can't stand the taste of alcohol, aka kids. They also sold regular malt liquor in giant 40oz bottles that tasted like vomit but it was 90 cents a bottle. It's like, skid row, sleeping in the dumpster type booze for those barely existing on the fringes of society.
