There was a soft drink I bought in Red Deer like 12 years ago called Guts. It was a guarana berry drink that made you completely wired. I only saw it for one summer before it disappeared forever.

I remember bag milk that my relatives had in ontario. Friggin weirdos.

Jumpin' Jack Doritos. I only ever saw them in the States, and only then for a short time many, many years ago.

Yeah! Paremisian flavor. Yum.

Others:
Church's Fried Chicken
St. Huberts (still in Quebec)
Mothers Pizza (still one location in the north, and someone else is trying to start up a national chain of them).
Willys Hamburgers
Blimpie Bay subs (last location in Calgary just closed down in Deer Run)

Tim Horton's had a Southwest Chicken Sandwhich with hot green peppers that was great.

A&W Cream Soda (brown not pink) - TurekGirl served some of that at a Flames party she had years ago in the U.S. She promised to send me a case of it - but sadly the case never arrived.

Ahh Mothers...cannot tell you how much I miss heading down to the good ole Beddington Mall Food Court and grabbing a couple of slices of Mothers, what great times. I think me and a couple of buddies went there everyday after school for a good 3-4 months straight at one point, never got tired of that pizza, probably some of the best, if not the best I've ever had.

And I've been to that new one up in Country Hills, not the same. No clue why, but it's simply not as good.

McDonalds western omelette bagel. I almost cried when they stopped making them and brought in those damn McGriddles.

Wild Cherry Pepsi, which you can still get in the States. Also, my favorite chocolate bar is Hazelnut Snickers which I've only ever seen in Australia, it is amazing!

Does anybody remember a type of 7Up from back in the '80s? It was just for a limited time but they had something like Orange Dream and Raspberry Dream. I don't remember the exact names but I remember drinking that stuff by the gallon.

I assume you mean Rave Chips.



There is actually a Facebook campaign to bring them back. Extreme Sal & Vinegar, Buffalo Wing Flavor, and a couple others were so damn good. They seemed to get worse, and worse over time (less powerful), but compared to Lays or regular Old Dutch they were amazing.

There used to be a wafer bar similar to Twix, only it had peanut butter in it - I thought it was called Breakaway, but googling it now, I think I'm wrong. I loved that chocolate bar.

I totally remember that! I would have guessed Breakaway for the name too so I think you're on to something.

some have been said, but for the record:

Wild Cherry Pepsi
McD's Pizza
McD's greek salad (I know! but it was decent--many times I went in and had a conscience attack whereby i ordered that vs something totally unhealthy)
Honest Tea (they sold it at Shoppers for a spell)
Shopsy's hotdogs at Harvey's
Mandarin Orange Tang
