Food that no longer exists that you wish did :(

When I was young, in the early 80's there was a cereal called Donutz.  It was like tiny crunchy powdered donuts.  I wish so bad that I had a box of them today, but they quit making them soon after.    :(

Is there a food that you miss terribly?

I miss Tostito's restaurant style salsa. I could seriously eat it all day. The kind of salsa they have out now is gross in comparison.

Jr. Crisp Burritos, from Carls Jr. ... little deep-fried burritos that were to die for! And Taco Flavor Doritos ... oh man, those were fantastic!

 They still make Taco Flavor Doritos.  They actually brought them back as a combination flavor (i.e. Two flavors in one bag).

I work at a 7-Eleven, so I see all the snack food I want, doesn't really help for a diet though.

wow this thread just made me crave sooo many things:

first of all, nestle's flipz were freaking awesome.... where did those go?!?!

secondly, rice krispies treats cereal... sseriously that is such a throwback. my grandfather used to pour me a bowl of them with chocolate milk topped with m&m's for breakfast!!!!! no wonder im on caloriecount these days, are you kidding me?!!?

and xxstar...if you are referring to otis spunkmeyer cookies (which were 3 for a dollar when I was a kid) which are quite possibly the most amazing cookie ever... i am WITH you.

one thing i thought of... i can't seem to find lifesavers original or lifesavers butterscotch just in the roll pack anymore. They are all individually wrapped now... so not fun!

Ice cream and cheese. Stupid lactose intolerance.

I used to eat a LOT of yoghurt and string cheese before I found out the reason why I was getting so sick all the time was because of dairy and eggs. :( I know your pain

They used to make this cereal that was like chocolate cheerios, but they where supposed to be Oreos, or something. They where chocolate and had little white specks of, what I think was supposed to be the white stuff in the middle. I used to eat a lot of that.

Also, my mom and I have been searching for these Cheddar rice snack things from Smartsolutions, or something. She gets these massive cravings for cheese, so it's my duty to go out and find these things, but I think they stopped making them.

she refuses to buy the multi grain rice snacks, which I love.

OH! anyone remember Dunkers? They where like handisnacks but came in cookies and cream instead of cheese and crackers...And fruit stripe gum?

I feel old now.

They were dunkaroos!!!!! I loved those so much! It's funny you should mention it because I was discussing how much I missed that very snack the other day with my friend!

they sell these at bj's food club a huge box for like 6 dollars, you get like 24 containers in different flavor

 They still sell Flipz (chocolate, white chocolate and dark chocolate) in the grocery stores around here.  I used to eat a whole bag of these in one sitting.  I would work out at the gym for about an hour then come home and was justified in eating them because I had just done my workout.  Little did I know how many calories they had per serving and how many servings there was to ONE bag!

And the lifesavers.  I just bought a roll of the butterscotch/butterrum at my local gas station yesterday.  I love them so much!

I don't know if this is gone, gone, or just gone from my region, but I used to LOVE Nehi soda. They always had the groovy "different" flavors like peach, blueberry, strawberry... CHOCOLATE.

Does anyone remember chocolate pop??? There were many different brands and even the diet versions were delicious.

I really loved the diet cherry chocolate Dr. Pepper (That was limited edition, too!) when it came out, but would love to just have a (diet) chocolate soda...

MMM...

I miss Nestle Toll House Cookie dough chocolate, it was in the market for only a few months and there were two flavors I believe, brownie and cookie dough. I loved the cookie dough and was disappointed when they stoped making it, oh well..

I misss Koala Yum Yums. The chocolate ones, not the strawberry! I can OCCASIONALLY find them at anime stores, but not at the supermarket anymore.

String things!!!! So good!! The blue one was the best!!! Border ices from Taco Bell!!!! Those frozen fruity things kicked it hard core! I also liked crispy m&m's and dunkaroos!!! Whatever happened to rice krispy treat cereal?? Coco wheat!!!! Best breakfast ever!!

I really miss Fat Free Apple Newtons!  I don't care for Fig Newtons or the Apple Cinnamon Crisp things that Nabisco has now...they're just not the same as the soft cakey dough of a Newton. It's probably a good thing though cuz I could easily eat the whole package in one sitting!

 Walmart still carries Rice Krispies Treats cereal

and wow that is some breakfast treat haha!

Blue Diamond almonds had a flavor called  Maui Onion and Garlic.  I went to buy a can and no on in this town carries that flavor any more.   I just checked their website and they still show them.  Wonder why they're not here.

Well I heard through the grapevine that Dannon is discontinuing my Carb Control yogurts, the blueberry ones are virtually non existant anymore.

I also miss Diet Berries and Cream Dr. Pepper, Instone Protein Pudding, and not that i ate them too often but Cookies and Cream Twix used to rock!

So did those crazy cookies called giggles!

Watermelon Poptarts!

Kellog Krave Bars!!!

Those things were heaven!
