I miss milk bags on my doorstep every week.



I'm sure you can still buy these things somewhere, but there was nothing as awesome as opening the door to a few bags of milk sitting on the doorstep in the morning.

Someone already said O'Ryans chips, I second that. They were super thick and had an unholy amount of artificial flavouring but dang were they good.

When I moved to Halifax, bagged milk creeped me out. No idea why. They also had bags of juice along side juice boxes. We got them for halloween quite often.

"No candy, how about a bag of juice instead!"

Not sure if you can get them anymore...I know you can't out West anyway, but growing up as a kid down East, I used to love A&W Coney Fries.

Opposite for me moving here to Alberta after having bagged milk all my life in Ontario. I drove from store to store figuring some place had to sell it, but no. I even had the special container and milk bag cutter.

Eventually I contacted the Alberta Milk Recycling Board who told me that it went away here a long time ago. Alas.

No love for Twinkies?? How about Half Moons? They came in a box of 6 at bakeries, Co-op has a variant but just not the same.

Wendy's Deluxe salad + bread stick and their pitas are also missed.

+1 for Tahiti Treat and Choclairs

Old Dutch used to make an Extreme S&V chip, I am not sure if it was really a chip or just a hardened slab of S&V flavoring but they were awesome. Half a bag in and my tongue was screaming for relief.

My wife actually wrote Old Dutch to complain that those were no longer available.

They're fricken everywhere out East.

I miss having Vienetta. Rumoured to exist somewhere in random places in the US.
