I don’t know if it’s discontinued or not sold in the US anymore, but there used to be this European cereal called Pocketini that was square’s filled with chocolate. Kellogg'scame out with cheap rip off that had much less and waxy tasting chocolate and smaller squares that just sucks.

Quaker corn bean crunch

It was always a favorite cereal but always super expensive compared to other cereals so I only bought it occasionally. It got discontinued a few years ago.

Dunkin Donuts movie tie-in drink from Men in Black 3. I think I got one every day for the 3 months it existed.

Bear Valley pemican bars. 450 calories in the size of a cliff bar and honestly pretty good tasting. Dry so you needed water but had good flavor.

Does it count if they still make the product but something changed so it doesn't taste the same anymore? If yes I definitely miss Termix don't know what they did but it's not the same. Also am lactose intolerant so can't really eat it anymore anyway. There's probably more things but this one I remember the most, also Pribináček.

Croissant Pockets. Hot Pockets also had a Beef and Cheddar flavor a long time ago and whatever equivalent they have now is not the same.

Smart Foods also used to have a spicy cheese popcorn but they changed it to an even hotter version. I can barely taste the cheese now. Bring back the original!

I was going to say Snapple Elements, but apparently they're back on shelves within the last month.

The original Pizzaria Uno cream of broccoli soup from the 90s. It was maybe the perfect version of that soup.

Morton Mini Donuts, covered in sugar n cinnamon. Pop in the oven, crisp and hot. Haven't seen them since the mid 80s. Sad

There was a sort of yogurt cup that was very spongy, not quite cheese cake thick but close. It was delicious and i forgot what it's called.

Looked it up just now and it might be the Yoplait Whips, but the container is different from what i remember (obv they changed it like all others).

I don't think i could find that in a local store though

Josta. Pepsi's first "energy drink" that they released in the mid 90's, made with guarana AND caffeine.

This was back in the days when Pepsi could "sponser" a middle school by putting a branded soda machine in a common area. It's how I ended up drinking grape Fuitopia every day at lunch, and every day I'd get a bottle of Josta for the walk home.

It wasn't immediately palatable. Reminiscent of Moxie but without the waxy aftertaste. It was like drinking carbonated cough syrup. But just like the other energy drinks that would follow a few years later, I really came to appreciate the taste.

It recently popped up in the background of a scene of the first season of Loki which had me hopeful for a revival, but no such luck.

Monster assault energy drink, the "new" flavour is a disgusting mockery of the original.

I don't remember the name but there was an energy bar with the flavor a specific juice that got really popular at some point when I was a kid. I think they suddenly discontinued it due to ingredients causing cancer. I had eaten so much of it that it was a bit worrying.

I swear there was a lollipop brand that looked like chupa chups or chupa chups themselves used to have a different flavor because they were the only lollipops I liked but can't find them anywhere after leaving middle school so I guess they stopped making them.

Me too. I guess if I ever have to go to space I’ll just have to deal with the crumb problem

Tic Tac Icegloo https://www.produkt.at/produkte/detail/id/10734/

I discovered these in my childhood before I discovered ordinary tic tacs, but they were discontinued soon after.
