Discontinued Products You Loved

[dawsongirl]

Anyone ever had a favorite product discontinued? I found out this weekend that my fav shampoo was discontinued. pissed: I love that stuff. So I bought up a bunch of it and am looking for more. I'm in hoarding mode.

[PZelda]

They always seem to discontinue my favorite mechanical pencils. :angryfire Oh yeah, and Pilot made this AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME liquid ink pen I loved to use many years ago. I loved it because it wrote smoothly, it was the right size and there was a lot of ink so it lasted a long time. They haven't made these since, I think, the end of my freshman year in 2000. Sigh...

Berry Berry Juice
Cherry Apple Sauce
Whelch's (1980's) Grape Soda
Mr. Pibb

A few years ago they introduced a new juice, Berry Berry (one of the Cranberry Juices). It was really good, but then they stopped selling it.
The same goes for Cherry applesauce. They came out with it. It was really good, and then they stopped selling it.
Back in the '80's they used to make Welch's grape soda. Yes, I know they still make it, but it tastes completely different from what it did back then. It was really good back then, I don't like how they make it now, it doesn't taste right.
Mr. Pibb was really good. They only make Mr. Pibb Xtra now. They no longer sell Mr. Pibb. Mr. Pibb Xtra tastes awful to me.

OMG I forgot about Mr. Pibb. I guzzled it like no tomorrow...this was back when I used to guzzle both Dr Pepper and Mr. Pibb.

In the late 80's, they used to have video game character sodas. I miss them. :( They had Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cereal in the 80's, as well as Mario and Zelda cereal. They were packaged together in the same box, but were separate cereals. I don't think I ever ate them, but I'm pretty sure my brother did.

General Mills (I think it was) sold Smores cereal in the 80's...They stopped selling them in the early-mid 90's. Mmmm, it was GOOD. :drool: They're back, but now I think Kellogg makes them and that cereal tastes like crap.

Another cereal I realllllllllllllly miss is Cinnamon Mini Buns. They were SO SO SO GOOD. :drool: I haven't seem them since at least 1995.

Two more sodas I can think of are Surge. I drank Surge briefly in the mid-90's and, um, there was a citrus-flavored soda that I'm forgetting the name of right now. It was in a yellow can and had purple lettering and I believe an illustration of a citrus fruit behind the lettering. Crap....what was the name? I didn't drink that because it was nasty but I miss not seeing them in stores anymore.

Oh yes, Crystal Pepsi. I can recall a time when there were NO 20-oz soda bottles. Can we go back to those pre-20-oz bottle days? Please? :D

SQUIRT?! I LOVED THAT STUFF.

Choco Taco

Choco Tacos were the greatest! I didn't know they don't make them anymore. I always used to get them from the ice cream man.

Choco Taco


So THAT'S why I haven't seen them anywhere. Man, I loved those things!

[PZelda]

SQUIRT?! I LOVED THAT STUFF.
No, they still make that and Squirt has red lettering, not purple.

Ohhhhhhh, I just remembered. It was Citra. They must've discontinued it when they discontinued Surge.

Okay, stop the presses...I just looked on savesurge.org and apparently Citra is now Fanta Citrus. Interesting.

*Cough* I can still to one of SEVERAL locations - at least in KY - and get Mr. Pibb...hell, the Arby's down the street still had it as of a couple weeks ago *cough*

I used to eat these Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Pies all the time when I was like 5, I am not sure if I would still like them though but they were great.

I loved Crystal Pepsi!!
I could do without Blue though.

[Number 9 Dream]

I remember Pespi Blue...sorta looked like Windex :D I tried it a few times but never really got in to it. I also remember the Crystal Pepsi from when I was younger and then suddenly it was gone. I guess people liked their soda sh*t brown.

Hmm, the only thing I can remember that I really liked being discontinued were the Taco Bell cheese fries. Now, these weren't Nathan's fries...they were long, stringy fries that they served to you in a box and they were covered with hot, melted cheese and scallions :liplick: They were so effing yummy! I was pissed when they disappeared one day :mad: Then Nathan's was added and I never saw them again.

Quaker Corn Bran cereal.

[TheHappyBurgerMeister]

Marshmallow Alphabits cereal. It's only been about a year or so since they discontinued it and for awhile I went to like every store asking if they had it until I realized that they just discontinued it and all they have now is the regular alphabits.

That was my favorite marshmallow cereal. Lucky Charms tastes a lot different in my opinion.

[QUOTE=Jen1978]I wish Mr. Pibb was still sold here. That's cool though that at least somewhere it's still being sold.[QUOTE]

For whatever reason, Mr. Pibb is starting to appear EVERYWHERE here in Texas. Several of the theaters have taken out Dr. Pepper and put in Mr. Pibb. Pissed me off...oh well, at least it gives me a chance to drink cherry coke every once in a while.

D

[PZelda]

They have that cereal here. My sister has eaten it before. My mother lets her get that cereal now and again.

:eek: WHAT?! I thought they DISCONTINUED it. Hmph. The Upper Midwest blows balls sometimes, and this is one of those times. :mad:

OMG I forgot about Mr. Pibb. I guzzled it like no tomorrow...this was back when I used to guzzle both Dr Pepper and Mr. Pibb.

I've seen Mr. Pibb lately. But it's actually Pibb Xtra. It is available at Wendy's, just to name one national restaurant chain.

Oh, as to what I miss, here they are:


Hot dogs from Wendy's (late 1980s) with a bun consisting of a large piece of bread

Teem soda (last seen in the early 1980s), like Sprite

Sohio gasoline (Boron, too!)

TNN, when it catered to C&W fans

[RWCTV]

I bought Bounce brand odor eliminator. It was just like Febreeze, but I cannot find it anymore. It, in my opinion, was more potent than Febreeze, and it eliminated the odors off of shirts that still smell a little funky under the arms, even after you wash them. Bounce eliminated that funky smell.

I think the discontinued products that I love was some kind of Sub Humans album that I particually liked. I don't remember any product that I've knew before and this is the only thing that I can think of for right now.

Choco Taco

CHOCO TACO IS DISCONTINUED?!?

Um anyway, mine would be the iPod mini. I got a nano and love it, but I really liked the minis.

[SBTB Geek]

Choco Taco, Mr. Pibb, and Quaker cereal are discountinued?!

Beats the hell out of me, not entirely, news to me, in that order.

*Mr. Pibb depends largely on what region you're in. At least parts of the Midwest and Southeast seem to have retained it to some extent, while others not so much.

*First I've heard of Quaker cereal going by the waysidee

*What the hell is Choco Taco?

I certainly hope not 'cause I eat the stuff every morning.
