I miss the fruit juice with whey that two large milk producers in my region used to sell, a decade or so ago. I'm almost sure that both companies stopped producing it altogether.

As someone that likes fizzy drinks and squash, but has an intolerance to artificial sweeteners, basically every fizzy drink that isn't Coca Cola is now off-limits.

The one I miss the most is Irn Bru. The "original" one in the bottle is fine, but the pre-sugar-tax Irn Bru was greatness in a can. Yet another way that Jamie Oliver has fucked the UK...

Wildland Aronia Berry Juice Cocktail, from CostCo.

The color was a little purpler than cranberry juice. They replaced it with grape juice, not as good.

Can't find a pic on google. The juice was around in the 90s.

Edit: Bing had one:

It seems this instance very stupidly blocks images from i m g b b so I had to go hunting for another host. Great work admins.

There was this candy back home called Choco bytes, which was essentially one of the pipe wafer things that a filled with chocolate but cut into small pieces, they tasted amazing but I think they were sold at a loss and so Cadbury pulled them. Loved those things and can't get a close enough equivalent any more.

When you really miss something enough, you can always go make it yourself, of course. Or at least try.

In China I used to be able to buy hotpot flavored Lay’s potato chips. Typical beef hot and spicy flavor. Somehow they disappeared but they were the best

Cheddar saltine crackers. Premium made them, but I think it was only for a year or two.

Cadburys nuts about caramel. I loved those bars. They must have done them for a few years before they discontinued.

Garden tomato and basil Lay's potato chips.

The Doritos frozen Mac N Cheese bites and nacho cheese Pringles Tortillas.

Also most of the Monster Rehabs that don't exist anymore and Rockstar Relax.

The relax products were the best

Nut fudge clusters from the Neilson candy company.

Nutchos, from before Nestle bought the company, f**ked up the product, and then discontinued them because their f**kery caused their popularity to crash. Apparently there are almond flour chips with the same name now - not talking about those.

R.B. Rice Cheese Soup. Not only a great cheese soup, but it made a heck of a queso dip.

Grillmix shakers in Hungary. They had great flavours, we used them on everything... then one day they simply ceased to exist.
