[Corn Quistos](https://addercatter.files.wordpress.com/2014/06/wpid-corn-quistos.jpg), like Combos, but corn tubes instead of pretzel tubes. I’m sure they were actually somehow worse than Combos and they were probably withdrawn because they were amazingly high in fat, but my teenage brain loved them. ---

This next one is not discontinued, it’s just really hard to find.

[Root Beer Kool-aid.](http://images.worthpoint.com/files/pb/1549/5689/s0030.jpg) It might still be around if more people had known that, tho it tasted not that great freshly made, if it was allowed to sit a day or so, it was delicious. ---

When I was young (7 to about 11) I LOVED peanut butter [Boppers](http://memoryglands.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/PeanutButterBoppers.jpg).

[Jello Pudding Pops](https://www.flickr.com/photos/adventuresofapurlygirl/522034277/) I found a recipe online that said if you make jello pudding regular like but add a cup or so of cool whip and then freeze it it comes out tasting good.
