What now defunct product do you wish would comeback?

Marathon candy bars. They were chocolate covered and were in a braided shape.

Much better than Chex Mix. View attachment 551373

Loved both of these!

Stoufer's Noodles Romanoff. It was one frozen side dish I used to really enjoy

I guess this proves I REALLY miss them!

Yeah! I was really hoping to find something for you! It’s a great memory, though.

Clorox Scentiva wipes. I don't know what happened, but they were new and now poof, gone. The wipes aren't listed on their site so I don't think it is just a supply issue. I swear they smelled like a Pina coloda...

I know that I can technically buy this on amazon - but... it is about $4 a bottle and I refuse to spend that much on it....and if I can't buy it in a store (which I cannot) then it has been discontinued.

World Market sells these in store for $2 each. I have one in my fridge right now.

That is great for people who have that grocery store - I think it's all on the west coast?

I'm in Pennsylvania.

It used to be readily available at every store - that's my point. WILD CHERRY WAS SO GOOOOOD

Sugar, not corn syrup in products.
Pure Vanilla, not that imitation stuff that is excreted by some poor creature - I do NOT want to know how they get it.
Real cheese, not that weird beetle dust they put on orange flavored snacks.
Fruit that tastes like fruit, not things that look like fruit but taste like wax gum.
I guess I would like real food to be brought back, didn't notice it until we started making so much home-made but now the chemical taste of things just jumps out at me.

Oh, and real flowers that smell like flowers not the living silk flowers that only smell when they get sprayed with funeral home flower perfume.

It's like we live in a SIMS world now and we've all agreed to let it slide.

The original Whatchamacallit. Hershey had to get cute and add carmel ... ruining my favorite candy bar.

Speaking of Hershey. In 2019, they had a fall release of candy apple chocolates. My dh and dd went wild for them. Couldn't find them this year. Not sure if Covid or if they were permanently discontinued, but they were well received in my home.

Altoid Sours.

When I was working, JCP had their own line of pantyhose I loved. I searched far and wide to find a good substitute, never did.

Modern Movement discontinued the underwear I loved. That was at least 8 years ago and I am still mad about that. If only I would have known I would have bought every last pair I could get my grubby paws on.

Maybelline had an express dry topcoat I loved. That line was discontinued a few years ago.


HONORABLE MENTION:
Products that I can still see are available places but I can't get them in my area,

Pepperidge Farm Sesame Snack Sticks
Keebler JUMBO Fudge Sticks
Doritos Salsa Verde
Ragu Old World Style Mushroom
Peanut Butter Twix

It's nationwide. There is 1 location in PA, in Montgomeryville.

It's not a grocery store. It is like a Pier 1, but they have a selection of international foods as well. It's mostly a home decor store, under the same ownerships as Bed, Bath and Beyond.

For all those who are missing Marathon bars, Cadbury has the Curly Wurly, which is pretty much the same thing. They are generally imports, but you can at least get them. I miss the old Chocolite bars. Aero bars aren't quite the same. The Chocolite was like having a crunch bar without the rice crispie in it. Aero bars are a much softer chocolate.

All the lime flavored candies (runts, skittles, jolly ranchers, etc) that have been switched to apple flavored instead and are definitely inferior.

It is in the grocery stores here in PA.

You can order it from world market online by the case(12). It works out to 2.49 a piece.

Ry-Krisp Crackers!

I looked for these a couple months ago and couldn't find them. I bought a "multi-grain" cracker that has a similar texture but not the same flavor and just not as good.

The original Whatchamacallit. Hershey had to get cute and add carmel ... ruining my favorite candy bar.

I too was mad when they did this. I still buy them on occasion but they were so much better without the caramel.

Clearly Canadian... It's probably not even as good as I remember but I remember it fondly.

I'm looking for a photo for this thread I read that they can still be bought in some places. But not anywhere near me. :/
