I think the one down here in Katy(Houston), Texas still has them. lol, Takes forever to order them in drive thru.

Hands down my favorite non-alcoholic drink of all time is Dr. Pepper Red Fusion. When they discontinued it I payed $25 for 5 cans on evilBay and it was worth every penny and would pay twice that if I could find some more

Am I absolutely insane, or did they used to make giant Oreos? I remember they came in a plastic shrink wrapped package, I swear they were the size of my hand. This was like 10 years ago.

Dunkin Donuts:
BREWED French vanilla Ice Coffee:

Now they just take regular ice coffee and add artificial flavoring 'shots.' Man, it just aint the same. They took away the only addiction I have.... It's just never been the same since....

Orbitz, the drink with the little bloating balls in it. I still have three bottles from the 90's sitting in my bedroom

OH HELL YES! I always wished I'd kept a bottle.

And I totally agree with the OP about the Fruit-center Mini-Wheats. They were one of my favorite cereals.

Anyone else remember dairy queen beef nuggets? They sounded horrible but actually weren't too bad. Dick Clark was in the commercials for them, iirc.

I think those came along after our one DQ shut down, and the other one blew up.

Josta

Not to toot my own horn but what the hay ....I agree Josta was an awesome drink. I helped design the flavor system (actually one of several) that made up the final beverage. From what I recall and from bits and pieces heard via others involved, Pepsi decided to put the product on the market with virtually no advertising in most areas (maybe a billboard here and there, a half page magazine ad, etc.) and see if it could sprout legs on its own via word of mouth. It's placement in market areas was targeted more towards urban youth. Everyone I ever talked to about it said they liked it but alas I think sales never reached some undisclosed level to keep it viable

Anyway, another poster was mentioning the availability of FrankenBerry and BooBerry....wasn't there also a Wolfman character version that was a grape flavor or something (this must be late seventies/early eighties)

Plus, can you still buy the regular old Taco Doritosanywhere?

I remember Count Chocula, but not a wolfman.

I sent a question to Kelloggs about that cereal

 

[MajinWade]

Because of this thread, I now crave a Nestle Alpine White Bar.

I can't be the only one who ate these. So unbelievably good. I knew I wasn't imagining them.

Fruit Brute, by General Mills. There was another relatively unknown one called Yummy Mummy. Up until now, the only ones I had heard of were Count Chocula, Boo Berry and Franken Berry.

 

[SilentRunning]

I miss

Shake-A Pudd'n

I used to be able to purchase instant milk chocolate pudding in a can so I was able to create my own "shake-a-pudd'n" but now I can't even find that.

There is just something about the aeration and powder remnants at the bottom of the cup that can't be matched.
