Is it true? Are ALL of these foods GONE FOREVER? I swear I’ve seen some of these around, like the Four Loko. Have YOU still been able to find any of these?

To be honest, I don't think I'll miss any of those. None were things I ate or bought. I refuse to buy candy labeled as breakfast cereal for my kids (that eliminates about 5 of them) I don't drink much pop, (and hated ANY changes to regular Pepsi, Blue or Clear) am allergic to peanuts (more eliminated) and try to avoid scam products such as a a gum which claims to "quench thirst." (In fact the reason this was taken off the market is that the company LIED. You can only quench thirst with FLUID. Gum has no impact on hydration. It was actually a dangerous product.)

"Crispy" M&Ms were made to save M&M Mars a LOT of chocolate from the inside of M&Ms, but they have "Pretzel M&Ms" which are almost the same thing, M&Ms with less chocolate.

Those inside out Oreos looked like fun, but I never bought them when they were available.

Meh. All of it is junk food anyway, so I'm not really upset. Maybe if I was still in my High School pot smoking days these being taken off the market would have upset me but not now.



But, it was a fun list to read. I had forgotten about most of those products.

I hate that I have to agree with you here hahaha. A lot of the things on the list are things I enjoyed during those "High School pot smoking days" that I wouldn't eat today.... EXCEPT for the French Toast Crunch, I'd probably be eating a bowl of it right now if I could get my hands on it!

I really like your perspective on the cereal though, that's definitely something to think about... because in reality that's exactly what those cereals are.... candy!

Some of these bring back memories but I haven't really thought about them or missed them. It's probably for the better because it's all junk food. Interesting list, though.

I think the Magic Middles have been rebranded. I saw a commercial recently for a very similar cookie. And man...Surge got me going every morning before school. The Squeezables were kinda fun, too. It was a treat during the summer.

Wow! I don't really eat any of those, but some of them made me laugh. I remember so many of them from when I was younger!

Also, I don't know anyone ever braved the purple ketchup. Ick.

I remember those crispy M&Ms! They were pretty good... and that Orbitz drink with the floating things in it.

Damnnnn, you just sucked the fun right out of EVERYthing on this list, P'Gell!

Not that into weed, but definitely will be sorely missing a few of these. Four Lokos are definitely sold all over in NY still - and in large quantities. I guess they still have a lot of already manufactured product to move? So I have a few more chances to puke my guts up while feeling like I'm coming down from a cocaine high at the same time, I guess? FUN.

But Waffle Crisp was SO good!!! We didn't get it a lot bc my mother usually bought off brands or whatever was cheapest, but it was like little crackers covered in maple flavor and sugar. In other words, it was awesome. Like if waffles crunched. And idk if I really miss supersize, because McDs just made all of their regular sizes larger...

Sparks is still legal, I think! Or at least, the overflowing garbage cans after punk shows seem to attest to this?

I am not familiar with most of the items on that list. I remember crispy M&Ms, but I never really liked them that much. I agree with Elle, that purple ketchup looked GROSS! Yuck!

I loved the Ecto-cooler, Crystal Pepsi, and Surge.

I couldn't stand the grape Mt. Dew...it just tasted sweet and nasty to me.

I remember when the blue pepsi came out...I poo'd green for weeks.

Ecto-cooler, Surge, and Squeeze-its were the shit. I'm a little too young to remember the Crystal Pepsi, but I know my mom enjoyed buying it. Pepsi Blue was one of my favorite high school drinks!

Ehhh... I'd rather have the French Toast Crunch, but yea they were good! And I was waiting for someone else to say that about the supersize, because I wasn't 100% sure

The Ecto-Cooler is sad for nostalgic reasons.
My parents bought sugary cereal sometimes. Waffle Crisp was only ever good when eating it outside while camping, surrounded by the outdoors and people's campfires. I'm not even joking, I couldn't stand the stuff indoors. Oreo O's is sad because they were delicious. I probably wouldn't buy them at this point, I don't buy Mini-Geek sugary cereal. Or I would buy them and hide them. (Which is what happens on the rare occasion that I purchase Count Chocula.)
Orbitz was soooo disgusting.
There is nothing else there that I care about.
Well, I did enjoy Surge back in the day but I definitely wouldn't touch the stuff now.

When I worked at a gas station there was a group of construction workers who would buy a few cans of that stuff before work in the morning. Like every morning that they were working in the area.

So...I thought a lot of these things were still sold. Mini nostalgia bomb reading that post. >.< Sprite Remix, wow. I'd forgotten about that. Apple Newtons > Fig Newtons.

I LOVED the Wonder Ball commercials! I still sing the tune!

My grocery store still carries Four Loko! I haven't tried it yet, but I noticed it last time I was there and thought it was odd they had it.

Crispy MnM's were my favorite, though! And Squeezits were a staple of my youth.

I guess it says something about the frequency with which I eat fast food that I had no idea supersizing no longer exists!

The Heinz EZ Squirt was kind of cool - what kid doesn't want to use purple or green (I think that was the second color) ketchup? Some company made pink and blue butter for a while, which was also amusing

I loved the crispy m&m's!!! So sad they were discontinued. They were my favorite chocolate snack when I needed a serious sugar fix. I use to put them on vanilla ice cream.Mmmm I'm drooling just thinking about it.

I'm sure I have seen the Crispy M & M's here.
How awesome - blue pepsi....lol.
I haven't seen any of the other items over here.
As much as I love purple, that sauce looks NASTY!

LOL! Sorry.

Totally OT, but we had a neighbor who had a pet pig. The pig would come over to our house and harass our dogs. The dogs would go insane trying to get at that pig. The pig never listened to us, and when we asked the woman who owned the pig to come and get it, she told us, "She likes Oreos Cereal. She'll listen to you if you give her some." When we told her we didn't have any Oreo cereal, she acted indignant and said we "should" have some in the house.... to control her pig. (While My Man made bacon and pork chop jokes under his breath.) I can't look at that cereal anymore without thinking of My Man trying to get that 250 lb pig on a dog leash in our driveway. Pigs don't have necks, at least not ones that you can put a leash around.

But, the damn farm animal wouldn't leave our property.

I live in Mayberry on Acid, I swear.

Sadly I missed quite a few of these.

1. French Toast Crunch-LOVED these and would be eating them right now!!!!

2. SURGE!!!- I miss this so much. EVEN though it's bad for me. I'd probably drink a few of them and quit.

3. Magic Middles- OMG we were just talking about these the other day.

4. Ecto Cooler- Wish my kids had this honestly!

5. Waffle Crisp- I still find this now and then. Would love to have it all the time.

6. PB Crisps- Just was talking about these the other day. Would love to have them back.

7. Mountain Dew Black/Livewire- We can still get black all over the place here. The livewire my poor fiance wants back badly. I wrote the company and they said they are never making it again.

8. Apple Fig Newtons- I loved those and wish I could eat some right now.

I try not to eat a lot of junk food, and my parents didn't allow us to go overboard, but there are few of these I ate in the past and sort of miss. I wondered if anyone even remembered these.

Apple Newtons-I loved these. I've never cared for the fig ones.

PB Max-BEST. CANDY BAR. EVER. Seriously, it was awesome.

Magic Middles-These were good. Ate a few as a kid.

Ecto Cooler-It wasn't the best tasting Hi-C product in my opinion, but c'mon, it has Slimer on it and it's green. There is actually a recipe out there for a drink that supposedly tastes like Ecto-Cooler.

I've tasted Crystal Pepsi, Blue Pepsi, and Surge, and I didn't care for any of them.
