Foods that are no longer available that you miss?

Chedder dips from Pizza 73. Why would they get rid of them? In high school and uni it was always large double pep pizzas with extra cheese and like 8 of those dips.

Haven't ordered Pizza 73 since they got rid of them.

Nabob lemon cheese for me. I doubt anybody else has ever heard of the stuff but I loved it. Peanut butter and lemon cheese makes for one good sandwich. There are other brands and you can make it from scratch but I sure liked the Nabob product.

As mentioned....



How I loved this drink as a kid.

Also, I remember going to the Red Rooster by my house back in the day and loved...



That was before I discovered Old Dutch: the best chips in the world!

Not sure if anyone remembers these:





They were kind of obscure. I only remember them for a couple of years.

I can't seem to find this stuff anywhere anymore. If I knew it was going to disappear off the face of the planet, I would have purchased more than one bottle last time.

I am pretty sure you can still get it... My buddy has a big bottle in his fridge that he bought not long ago. Damn is it spicy...

I'll ask him where he got it and let you know when i find out.

I remember going there, then heading out back and finding the discarded Swank and Club magazines in the dumpster.

The one in Whitehorn and perhaps, that's a good thing

They use to carry the best beef jerky, was in a jar, and tastes way better then the stuff you can buy at most places today.

The chocolate in the States sucks. The ONLY good place to get chocolate are in British/Irish shops and you can get Smarties and Cadbury stuff, but it costs a fortune. I always bring a bunch of Smarties/Coffee Crisp/Caramilk/Jersey Milk home with me whenever I go to Canada. The stuff here just pales in comparison.

(Of course, it's all for the kids) ha!

I think these were 25 cents. Looked at the picture after I posted and yeeap 25 cents of pure awesomeness!

Anyone remember the bubblegum that came in a square block, blue wrapper, and had a muscleman with the world on his shoulders on the wrapper. I thought it was called Big Hunk but can't find any pics.

while this is likely still within the reach of most on this site, as someone who no longer lives in Calgary, I really, really, really miss the nacho cheese at the flames game.

hell, I remember launching a CP email campaign when they tried taking it away from the Flames games in the mid-late 90s (this was before we had CP jihads).

I wonder if they'd send me some up?

Seriously?? Are you suggesting that they actually brought hot mustard dipping sauce back to McDonalds in Canada??

Great news if true.

**edit**

Looks like its true....

I am not sure if you could get these in Canada.

But between my aunt (who lived in LA) and family trips to Montana, I must have eaten a million of these in the 70's.

They have these in the States. Same thing?



I do agree about Hostess. I used to love Hostess Barbecue. The closest you can get is Lays Old Fashioned Barbecue but they're rippled.

No, they were Sour Cream n Onion Rings- Yellow with green specs- covered in sour cream n onion goodness, the staler they got, the better they tasted. I remember loving them as a kid. (Pretty gross I know). They had a sort of see through bag. Ooohh they were good.

[Devils'Advocate]

Onion nuggets: McD's were okay, but KFC's were great...


And there were these chocolate bars that I was addicted to as a kid... forget the name... but every bar had a coupon for some kind of prize. Free chips, free bar, free bike... very "Roll up the Rim", but every single one had a "winner", except usually you would get a "$2 off any album at Sam the Record Man".
