Pepsi Blue was auctually quite good, I auctually liked it, I guess I was in the minority though
Still waiting for a relevant Browns Team
This is defintly not extinct but EXTREMELY FUCKING RARE TO FIND.
I had this in LA, But it is only sold in LA, But it is very good, and alot better than the orange pop we have here.
Pretty sure I've seen that in Arizona, but I never tried it. Makes sense that they would sell it in the land of the Saguaro cactus.Originally posted by Unchainme

EAT US AND SMILE!!!!
I remember Crazy Cow...
My fave as a kid. You can still buy it online and in bottles. Expensive as heck but friggin' delicious.
Even though I now find Taco Bell utterly disgusting, back when I was a kid and the chain wasn't such a monster they had these taco "burgers" (similar to a sloppy joe) called "Bellbeefers." Anyone else remember those?
Back prior to it becoming such a massive, corporate conglomerate, they used to look like this and actually had semi-decent fast "Mexican" food.
Man, they were such a treat after little league football practice.
I'll throw some of you even further a loop...
How about when your family actually went out for pizza and it was an event?
Heck, I still remember when Domino's was a "new" thing.
Regardless, their "pizza" has always sucked.
Some other things that I know many of you can relate to as well.
Remember when "Slurpees" at 7-11 only came in say two flavors, they had to be ordered at the counter and the clerk had to fetch them for you?
How about when soda pop was in glass fucking bottles? Man, it beyond tasted better than plastic. Hence and probably a big reason why I don't drink soda anymore. lol. Keeping in stride with that, remember when you'd drink the bottles and return them to the store for $$$?
Fuck, this is a cool thread.
How about the whole wine cooler phase from the mid 80's? Shit like "Sun Country" or "Bartles and James?" Make fun of it now but I KNOW many of us got drunk off the shit back in the day and we were listenting to EEAS (when it was first released) at exactly the same fucking time.
*oops*
double post.
OOF!!!

Shit, I'm wracking my fucking brain trying to remember stuff? Unfortunately, most of the stuff that's gone was locally.
Anyway, I remember when "Pizza Hut" was a sit down restaurant, you went with your fam and delivery wasn't even a thought.
I also remember when fast-food chicken sands were a new thing. I remember when you oredered one at Wendy's it came with all of the toppings that went on a hamburger. Anyone else remember that?
Another one I remember from childhood were these BBQ sands from ARBY's called "ARBYQ's" that my parents would bring home a sack full of and we'd gobble them down.
I also remember when chicken "nuggets" were the "new" thing and all of the fast food places had them. The one's from Kentucky Fried Chicken were the best, if memory serves me correctly? Speaking of that, fuck, remember when that place was called that and not "KFC?" It was also more of a "family oriented" faster food establishment as opposed what I see today. Much like the others I've mentioned prior.
Remember when they were like this?
I believe the 2 flavors were Cherry and Coke {Right}?Originally posted by MAX

Fuck, this is a cool thread.
I also remember the collectable plastic cups,some super heros,baseball players and the like...
And I agree 100% on the glass bottles......Remember when RC Cola had the bottle caps that you could peel back the plastic underneath to reveal a winning prize?Sometimes it was a free soda or 25 cents,Just enough to keep you coming back for more..lol
Very cool thread!!

The Reggie bar that was some good shit
If I remember correctly, there was always Coke, then the others were a rotation of Blue Raspberry, Cherry, Banana, Orange, Grape and Bubble gum, etc. Just basics.Originally posted by mewisemagic

Does anyone remember Taco flavored Doritos?
They were replaced by Nacho Cheese flavored somewhere around the late 70s to early 80s......Damn they were good!

pop rocks were cool
I thought it would be funny to chase a mouthful of these with soda
my teeth hurt for days
candy cigarettes...lol
we thought we were *such* hot shit with these
Yeah, that one pisses me off. I loved the Taco Doritos. It wasn't the Nacho Cheese that replaced them, though that did become the "standard" flavor. They finally dropped the "taco" flavor when they introduced the "Salsa Picante" and "Salsa Verde" flavors in the late 90's.Originally posted by mewisemagic

Gotta admit that the new Habanero flavor rocks though.
Pop rocks seem to make a comeback every 10 years or so. What probably happens is that each generation of kids starts eating them, then the urban legends resurface about exploding stomachs and all that, the parents panic, and the sales slump again.Originally posted by diamondsgirl

Incidentally, Pop Rocks were invented by accident. What the company was actually trying to make was a mix for instant soda pop, which is why there's carbon dioxide within the candy itself. That plan failed, so in stead they marketed the stuff as candy. And the rest is legendary.
I remember this, and I loved it...
And Nintendo cereal...
Last time I was in Dallas they had Taco Doritos.
Popeye's onion rings...damn, I miss those.
They still make Taco Doritos...they're listed on the Doritos website.
I liked this stuff...tasted like cherry flavored Dr. Pepper
do they still make Quisp?
KFC used to have those little square chicken sandwiches, were they Chicken Littles? i worked for a local competing fried chicken chain back then, and we had Chicken Minis. 39 cents a piece...pretty much chicken "sliders."
there was also a local soda company that made Cherikee Red and Nehi Peach soda. Nehi Peach was horrible...we'd buy a six-pack and shoot .22's at it.

My grandmother used to buy those for us!!! I haven't even thought nor remembered those since I was a kid. Great find!!!
Yup, they still do but you can only buy it online. I know cos I bought a few boxes a few years back. I loved that stuff.Originally posted by twonabomber

Quisp
Also, you can still buy Peach Nehi as well. I actually like the stuff as far as soda goes.
KFC was advertising some small chicken sandwiches a month or two ago. I don't know if it was a seasonal promotion or a permanent menu item, since I don't get to KFC very often.Originally posted by twonabomber

As for the Peach soda, I don't think you can get any decent fruit flavored soda anymore, because of the high fructose corn syrup. When I was a kid, my mom bought all the Shasta fruit flavored pop. But the minute they went to the HFCS, that shit was undrinkable. Coke & Pepsi just manage to hide it better somehow.
the KFC Snackers are pretty good. the Chicken Littles were just square chicken patties on a square bun, with some mayo on it.

These MUST still be around, although I haven't seen them in any of my local supers in a few years:
The Trinity - Count Chocula
Frankenberry
BooBerry
I did see a few dozen kids wolfing down Pixie Stix at a fair recently...hadn't seen those around in awhile.
How about Billy Beer?
