That was my first instinct to answer before i thought about it. I don’t think it’s been produced in the U.S. in 25 years, but I liked it when I was a kid because it came in a tube (like toothpaste).

I figured I was the only person who’d remember it, so I typed in a different answer. I’m surprised so many people gave that answer (or maybe it’s still sold regionally).

Goddess, this was hard…keeping in mind that most players would be American, my canadian answers to 1-4 (DuMaurier, Labatt, Hostess, Big 8) wouldn’t do as well…

Man, with 2 pages, I hope I’m not late…

It’s still being produced, but it gets very little shelf space, at least at the stores where I shop (Payless supermarkets in Lafayette and West Lafayette, Indiana). It happens to be my favorite brand – I just washed my hair with it earlier today.

“Pantene” is the one that sounds nasty to me. It makes me think of people putting panties on their hair.
