    Along with the 3-d chips, Flamin hot Cheetos Asteroids. They came in a plastic container so I could bike to school and not have to eat crushed up chips at lunch time (because I always only ever had soft lunch boxes).

    The Reggie Bar, Smurfberry Crunch, styrofoam encased Big Macs, BK Yumbo, PacMan cereal ...

    I've noticed that nobody misses "new" Coke.

    Most of the things I miss are more because they're not as readily available where I am now, opposed to actual availability.

    Same! I miss things from Oregon and Washington, but only because I'm currently in Michigan. My husband will feel the same about Michigan food when we leave.

    As far as wide availability, though, I miss the old glass-bottled Clearly Canadian. And I don't know if it's my usual grocery store or what, but I have a tough time finding honey roasted Planters peanuts anymore.

    There was another thing when I was a kid that I'm glad not to find because I'd want it. It was these boxed cupcakes you could make with jello pudding in the center.

    If anyone knows where to find them, don't tell me!

    I don't know where to find them, and good thing for me, too :wink:

    I know Mexican CocaCola is available in our stores (single bottles at a time $1.09 a piece). But what I really miss is glass bottled Pepsi and Dr. Pepper from my youth. You know, buying a six pack and having to pay a deposit on the bottles. My grandma let us kids take all the bottles back for pocket change :happy:

    The local gas station also had a chest cooler of the Pepsi 6oz bottles for 25 cents each. Finding a quarter on the ground at age 10 was like hitting the lottery, lol!

    I liked soda out of glass bottles, too. Definitely a different taste. Or maybe it just cools different in the fridge. And my son still likes the rootbeers that come in glass bottles.

    Morningstar had these microwavable fake sausage or bacon breakfast biscuits with cheese. SO damn good and quick and not that bad on calories. Sigh.

    My husband misses Coke Black, which they made for maybe 10 minutes (espresso with Coke).

    Zero candy bars. I think they're still made, but I haven't seen them in forever. There was also an even more heavenly white chocolate candy bar (going back a good 30 or so years now) that was topped with a drizzle of cinnamon flavor. I just can't remember what they were called.

    Yes, Zero candy bars are still made. They didn't used to be available in our area so I would get one anytime I could find them. Now that all our Walmarts have them, however, I've had to ease up on that a bit.

    Ecto Cooler! Even so many years later, I really get a craving for it every once in a while.
    And Cheetos Paws (not sure if that's the official name, but they were paw-shaped), Snapple Elements, Shark Bites fruit snacks.

    Oh! And there used to be Girl Scout Cookies called Juliettes, which were kind of like pecan Twix bars in a cookie shape. A-mazing. And I think it was Keebler that used to have these incredible wafer, caramel and nut chocolate covered "cookies." They were awesome too.

    Baked Cool Ranch Doritos. I know there are probably others, but right now, I'm really craving some of those....

    ....or maybe it was Nabisco. See, I knew I should have walked away from this thread as soon as I saw the title. I've been pining away for these things for the last 24 hours now.

    I live in Canada and we don't have Cocoa Krispies Cereal (which might be a good thing for me since I can polish off a box in 2 days) Everytime someone I know goes over the border I put in my request for a few boxes :)

    Not sure if you really wanna know this, but Walmart carries the Zero candy bar... They are at every register... lol

    When I was little we used to have this hot chocolate pudding with a crunchy topping. It came as a powder and you mixed it with hot water. I dread to think what was in it but it was SO good.... haven't seen it for years.

    Also Quosh - bright green squash drink from the 80's :smile:

    "All natural" white cheddar cheetos . . . they were so good and pretty low calorie for a 32-piece serving. They're not in my Wal-Mart anymore :(
