    Sorry not one, but three things...

    HT Traders Lemon Creme Cookies - Even though they were a store brand (Harris Teeters), they were the best ever lemon cookies as they had the right amount of zing (the creme filling was super tangy) and sweet (the cookie was sweet). I used to make sure I had room in my luggage when I traveled to DC so I could pick up a few packs as we don't have Harris Teeter's in Central FL.

    Pepperidge Farm Single Serving Deserts - Haven't seen these in over 25 years, and maybe they were just a west coast (US) thing, but they used to make these single serving cups with brownie, marshmallow, fudge and nuts - you popped them in the microwave for 30 seconds or so, and they were so delicious. I still look for them in the frozen foods aisle hoping they'd bring them back.

    Oh, yea, also Harris Teeter's brand Pineapple Sherbet - super tangy and pineapple-y. Most pineapple sherbets are super bland. Think a whole tub of just the pineapple sherbet from Baskin Robbin's rainbow sherbet and you get the idea. Wish Baskin's would just package the pineapple sherbet without the raspberry and orange.

    Some are no longer manufactured. Most are no longer being stocked by the local grocer. 2 years ago, bmfp, I sought for hard ribbon candy to have during the Christmas season. I could not find it at the grocer, I could not find any source of it online. It's easy enough to make it at home, and that's why it was somewhat popular in this part of the world. If I want some, I'll have to make it myself.

    That link did have some ribbon candy. I elected not to pay for shipping, as I am not reminiscing that much.

    Um this is from when I was a kid but Crispy Critters cereal. I used to love it and the mascot was super cute!
    The cereal consisted of individual pieces that were akin to miniature animal crackers in their shape, appearance, taste and texture. I actually wrote a letter to Post saying that they should bring them back, but I doubt they will. I have never found another cereal like it. And it must have made an impression because I still remember it after all these years.

    I also really like the chocolate filled koala cookies...I still see them every once in a while but it is usually the strawberry version. They are an Asian snack food. I just checked amazon and they have them. I should order them sometime!

    I still sing the Crispy Critters song...and everyone thinks I'm nuts. Don't know that I'd eat them now ( not much of a cereal girl), but agree on the mascot.

    Also, Sizzlean Beef Bacon. Oh, yum. Sigh.

    Lance Spicy Corn Chips.

    Pizzeria Chips (I probably misspelled that).

    Apparently it's all junk food for me.

    And Sunrise toffees. They still have, but the recipe changed and I don't like the new version as much

    Ben & Jerry's rainforest crunch ice cream. I saw on a TV special that they "lay" all their discontinued flavors to rest in the Ben & Jerry's graveyard. Weird, but that stuff was so gooooood!!!

    I could have sworn Walmart was selling Ribbon Candy in their seasonal candy aisle.

    Chocolate biscuits. I used to eat a few bags a week, but once I started CICO, I realized that one bag was actually a full day's worth of calories - so they're basically gone completely now. Every now and then I buy a bag, but now it lasts ~10 days rather than just one..

    Soda. I'm a sucker for soda. When I was a young lad (15-20 years old), I'd drink 1½-2 liters of coke a day. I'm still working on this, but I love it too much to never have it at all. My current rule is only on exercise days or if there's special events going on (like going out, or something like that).

    I'm not sure if anyone remembers these as they may have only been sold in Canada. So, so yummy.

    A tea I can't remember the name of but it's discontinued. It was the best.

    I buy Fresca all the time. Can I ship you some?

    The first thing that came to my mind was Jello Pudding Pops.

    Also Raisin Squares cereal...it was basically Kellogg's Shredded Wheat with raisins in the middle. For a while there was a Frosted Mini Wheats version (the original did not have frosting)...but it seems both have been discontinued. There is a raspberry filled Frosted Mini Wheats...but I don't care for raspberries.

    I would love that! But shipping to South Africa is a risky business. There's no telling whether I would ever get it or if it will just "disappear" at customs!

    They brought the Cheetos Paws back earlier this year, but snatched them away again. A bit disappointed. :(

    Fresca is still sold where I live. I also recently saw Clearly Canadian at a specialty store.
