The curly fries at Arby's are now just regular fries that are curled. They aren't as thin and crispy anymore.

Planters used to make these great snacks called PB Crisps. They were a peanut butter filled wafer(?) cookie in the shape of a peanut. They were really good. The cookie structure was sweetened and tasty and peanut butter is also good.

Someone has created a website about how much they want them back: https://pbcrisps.com/

gently caress yes. My mom used to work at Nabisco, and she used to bring those home all the time from the company store. They were amazing, and I still think of them from time to time.

I don't know if they'll will happen again, since it looks like Planters and Nabisco were split apart (if I read Wikipedia correctly).

In the summer I'd walk to the public pool, play there almost all afternoon, then I would buy a can of nestea from a vending machine for 50¢, and walk home. I miss that tea so bad. Arizona has similar tasting lemon iced tea but that might just be misplaced nostalgia.


Baskin Robbins used to have a daiquiri ice sherbert I was fond of.

It was the defacto summer drink and I remember the taste to this day. It inspires almost crippling levels of nostalgia.

Mello Yello?

Nah we still have Mello Yello around here, though I guess it's pretty limited to the upper midwest. like the McDonald's by my work has it on tap, I get it occasionally to remind myself that it's really too sweet, honestly

Whatever soda I'm thinking of was a little more esoteric and was made by some company like Shasta but somehow even more obscure

Speaking of, does Shasta still exist? I feel like I stopped seeing them in the last ~5 years but I'm not sure when

gently caress yes! My school had a vending machine, but it would practically sell out the same day it stocked. I would suck down a Cherry Vanilla Grove in seconds and want more. In hindsight, it was a sickly over sweet drink, and I doubt I could stomach one now, (I water down fruit juice whenever I drink it now) but goddamn I used to love that sweet nectar.

What was that Guarana soda? Had a panther on the label; tasted like cinnamon fruit rear end, but I drank the gently caress out of it.

When taco bell stopped selling the zesty steak melt, it was like a dagger in my skeezy teenage heart. I never truly forgave them, and no amount of double decker tacos could fill that void.

JOSTA. That was the loving drink. It was apparently the first American energy drink. No wonder my kidneys were shot to poo poo in high school.

Recently, the Ekono (Wal-Mart) in my neighborhood was rebranded as a Lider Express (different type of Wal-Mart), and they stopped selling Papas Duqeusas (Tater Tots) in the 1 kilogram (2 pound) size, and instead only sell them in the 500 gram (1 pound) size.

Okay, now I am going to be TCCing in BYOB:

Back in like 2008 or 2009, the Dollar Tree sold Dextromethorphan in these sublingual strips. It was slightly more expensive than pill or syrup DXM, on the surface, but because it was sublingually absorbed, it came on a lot quicker and with less of a fuss then guzzling cough syrup. I would just take ten strips and put them under my tongue and wait for it to kick in. Not wanting to be too suspicious, I wouldn't buy too many at one time, just 4 or 5, but I had amassed a collection of like 20 of them by the time they discontinued them.

My favorite chocolate is only available in winter :( Bacchus contains a pocket of rum inside.

I had always seen this liqueur named Nassau Royale at the libation station, and finally bought it. It was very very good. Within two weeks I learned it had been discontinued.

I was there to buy Sprecher, which is also pretty Midwestern.
Menards has the best price and best variety of Sprecher of anywhere I've been

huh, I should check if ours has Sprecher. I know the Fleet Farm by my place used to carry really good ginger beer. Both of these things are baffling while also making perfect sense.
