The sad part about this thread is I'm not going to be able to tell the difference between products that are truly defunct vs. products that I didn't realize still existed because I'm too old and can't afford to eat that much junk food anymore. Aging sucks.
I never knew the majority of the stuff in this thread ever existed in the first place.

I was excited when Crystal Pepsi came back recently. However, it did not taste as euphoric as my nostalgic memory of it.

I would like them to bring back dnL ("7up" upside down).

I loved that stuff but I'm sure I was one of a few, which is why it was discontinued.

There was a snack in the 80s that was the chief rival of Combos. They were called Doolie's. They were basically a barrel-shaped potato chip like the Combo but the insides were this crack-coacaine sour cream and onion dip substance that you could literally suck out. Mother of god they were insanely good.

Also in the 80s, Hy Vee had a take and bake pizza chain called Moose Brothers. I'm telling you right now, it was better than any take and bake on the current market and better than nearly all frozen pizzas and many restaurant pizzas. I wish they'd bring that **** back.

They tried bringing those back but they were NOTHING like the ones in the 80s. I have no idea why they don't make those again. We used to get them weekly.
Yeah, they still have the 'new' chicken littles, which are nothing more than their 'snackers' rebranded.
