Lancome “Hydrative” moisturizer. I almost cried right at the counter in The Bay when the rep told me it was discontinued.
Thanks! I live in Austin so maybe…might be worth a trip. They sold it in Illinois long after they stopped selling it in California, and my mom used to mail it to me.
Honestly. Just cause I want to show all my DR friends what I am talking about. Purple and Green Ketchup from Heinz.
I miss the “Coffee’s Ready!” beeps that used to be an available feature on Mr. Coffee coffeemakers.
Oh, and 64-ounce cartons of ice cream in California supermarkets.
One of the cereal companies released a product: “Frosted All-Bran”. The Baby Boom meets middle age!
It was quite good, but didn’t last.
Campbells Tomato Garden soup
Inform the young’n…was the 7-up candy bar a candy bar made from 7-up? The soda?
Let me add:
Snapple Elements (I used to LIVE on fire)
Blues Clues Berry/Scooby-Doo Blue Mott’s apple sauce
Doo Dads snack mix. And every time this question is asked, I get mopey about it all over again!
7-up was a candy bar with 7 different kinds of filling in a single bar. It was kind of like taking several pieces of candy and gluing them together into a bar shape. I don’t know if I can remember all 7 but one was jelly, one was coconut, one was a kind of maple cream; can anyone name the rest? (The jelly was my favorite.)
The seven up filling flavors were:
Jelly
Cherry
Coconut
Fudge
Brazil Nut
Maple
Caramel
The company now puts them out as TGIFriday’s Potato skins.
TGIFridays is a restaurant chain that somehow bought an exclusive and branding rights.
Unfortunately, they did not bring the Baked Potato flavor over; it got discontinued.:mad:
–G!
According to the images of the wrapper online, it was: mint, nougat, butterscotch, fudge, coconut, butter cream, and caramel.
Gerber Ketchup - Amazing!! Best condiment ever made.
Add this to the list of dollar store items.
I wonder if there were different versions over the years, then, because the one I remember definitely had jelly and maple and the brazil nut. I like the maple best and always ate it first. The brazil nut was always last. And I distinctly remember the cherry, which I’d always swap with my best friend for the maple. She liked the cherry and not the maple. I was the reverse. And don’t remember it ever having a mint section at all.
Ah, the good old days that had such variety!
The Pearson candy website says:
all the flavors including fruit jelly, orange jelly, chocolate pudding!
Doritos Cheeseburgers After Midnight (something like that). They came in a black bag with neon signs, and they actually did taste a bit like hamburger, cheese, ketchup and pickle. Maybe it’s good they are gone, I don’t need to add bags of Doritos to my diet And LaChoy bite size egg roll appetizers. Cheap, ultra hot pillows of finely chopped celery and cabbage, they are gone forever.
I’m not a big consumer of door crasher, sugar, poofy products but I do, or did miss Koogle, not so much since I’m not eating sugar on purpose, mostly.
Not a big consumer of fast food either but one memorable thing I do miss is the barbecued pork sub from Subway.
Both these products do in fact still exist, say the relevant companies’ web sites.
I miss the Snickers Cruncher. Peanuts, crisp rice, caramel, chocolate. Wonderful little items.
Also remembered Tangy Taffy. I liked both the cherry and grape.
