I -totally- remember those! I’m so ecstatic! After so many fond childhood memories, I was starting to get worried that I had imagined the whole thing!
Forget hamburger Helper, Hunt’s used to make a product called Skillet Lasagna that helped launch my little ten year old self on to a culinary career. I loved that stuff.
and how come no one has mentioned the holy grail and true cross of breakfast cereals yet? Quisp and Quake!
a big bowl of Quisp for my sister, a big bowl of Quake for me, Saturday morning and Jonny Quest on the TV. Happy times.
You can get them by the sackful at most larger grocers.
Oh, the memories. I’m so hungry now.
I definitely miss Marathon bars. As a kid, I thought they were bigger than regular candy bars, so in the rare times I could get a candy bar, I always got Marathons. Until they were discontinued, and I switched to:
Toffifay. Little caramel cups with a nougat inside them, a hazelnut inside that, and a chocolate lid. They are heavenly, and the little cups are suspended in these flimsy plastic dips that you push out to release the candy. Ooh.
Someone already mentioned BW3’s curry sauce. I have a whole jar of it in my fridge. Every once in a while, I break down and make wings with it. I sent them an email once to see if there was any way to get the recipe or bribe them or something. Nuthin.
How about O’Grady Au Gratin potato chips? Very thick wavy cut chips with a heavy dusting of orange cheese flavor? Anyone?
Pizza Hut used to make a stuffed pizza/casserole type thingie called a priazzo. They were wonderful.
And for dessert, Frusen Gladje (I’m surely misspelling something) ice cream.
Oh. OH. OOOOOOOH. I loooooved those. A few years back when I learned about Hometown Goodies and other sites with discontinued foods I got all excited about being able to score some triple deckers.
Alas, no. Not even the suppliers of obscure foods have them. 
Oddly enough, I e-mailed them when I found out that they stopped making the stuff. They responded back and told me that they discontinued it because it wasn’t very popular with the customers. I think that curry is one of those “love it or hate it” flavors. Couple that with its powerful aroma and I guess I can somewhat understand why they discontinued it. It was a damn fine sauce, though.
Another thing that I miss is the food from Taco John’s fast food mexican restaurants. The chain is still in business, but our local franchise closed about a year ago. Much tastier than Taco Bell, IMHO.
In Florida? Concord grapes
Stauffer’s Macaroni Casserole…mmmm. Macaroni, cheese, chicken cubes, bacon, and tomato bit…yum yum yum.
I think you are thinking of what I came in here to contribute: Whip N Chill. It was a jello-like substance that was whipped and would settle into three layers, the bottomo being gelatin, the middle being fluffy gelatin, and the top being almost like whipped cream. Loved it. The lemon flavor rocked. The time period it was available was around 1964 to maybe 1970, something like that.
sob
But that means I have to abandon my long-held hope that they were just waiting for the right time to bring the sauce back! WAH!
I still remember the ad campaign when these were introduced, with a catchy little jingle that began:
Toffifay, it’s too good for kids
Toffifay was made for grownups
You can find Toffifay all over the place out here. If you want me to send ya some, e/m me (chauceriangirl@netscape.net).
Popsicle brand makes them. You’ll see that kittenblue has already taken me to task over forgetting to mention that. They are certainly available. I have some in my freezer right now.
I was mixed up about Whip N Chill. There was a lemon flavor but I was still confusing it with 1-2-3.

Whip N chill ** is still available, by the way! vermontcountrystore.com!

Grapeasaurus Rex Kool-Aid. I think it was a grape-lemonade mixture. I drank gallons upon gallons of this stuff one summer, and then they quit making it.

It was the best mixer for rum.
I remember those but we didn’t get them very often.
I also remember when “Super Golden Crisp” was know as “Super Sugar Crisps” and a couple other cereals that had the “sugar” dropped from their names when sugar was deemed evil.
But the cereal I miss the most is Post Krispy Kritters*. I loved my Krispy Kritters.
*I think it was spelled with K’s, not C’s, anyone else remember? I was too busy eating them to read the box.
From the 70s: for about 5 minutes in the summer of (I think) 1977, Baskin-Robbins had a flavor called Charlie Brownie: peanut-butter-flavored ice cream with chocolate chunks. Mmm.
From the 80s: New Coke. No, just kidding. Carnation breakfast bars, of course!
From the 90s: Frosted Cheerios. I think it was my pathetic addiction to these that made me drop out of grad school.
That’s the way I remember it being spelled, however, a google search is nearly useless since many times people are referring to something produced by Krispy Kreme which is spelled the same way. I don’t remember the cereal per se, but I remember my older brothers talking about it and explaining to me where the term came from. I do, however, remeber a cereal which featured a tree on the cover and small monster shaped cereal pieces underneath the tree, I’m wondering if that’s a box of Krispy Kritters or something else entirely.
“Kritters now has Orange Moose!
Moo-oose…Moo-oose!
The finest moose we could produce
Call for Orange Moose!”
Amazing what I find in the junk drawer that is my memory.
These are NOT the original despite what the ad says.
The original ones were pointed at the end. So, not only did you get a delicious lollipop, you had a lethal weapon, too.
Impaling never tasted so good!
