Also check out that link if you're nostalgic for any of these (beverages, mostly). Brad Jones is kind of a collector and connoisseur of these sorts of unavailable things, and it's really interesting to see him try them out. Apparently Crystal Pepsi holds up! Apparently Orbitz doesn't! He's also pretty obsessed with Ecto Cooler.
I'm not sure I've ever actually consumed...any of those products. In fact, I'm pretty sure I haven't.

Uh, my local gas station, Walmart, and Smith's (local grocery store) all have Livewire. Hell, I had a can yesterday. So, uh, yeah.

I miss the two Pepsi varieties a bit, but nothing else really. I also used to like Livewire, until I had a blood sugar test done. It required me to drink a thick, sugary, orange flavored drink that wasn't good and forever tainted Livewire for me.

1. Crispy M&M's - knew they were gone, and miss them dearly 2. Pepsi Blue - knew it was gone, and would give almost anything to get it back :'( 3. French Toast Crunch - Didn't know it was gone and am sad now. 4. Butterfinger BB's - didn't know they were gone and am VERY sad now. :'( 5. Sprite Remix - never heard of this, or at the very least never had it 6. Surge - knew it was gone, and have signed a few online petitions to bring it back 7. Magic Middles - never heard of them 8. Ecto Cooler - either never heard of it or don't remember it, which is weird seeing as I'm a HUGE Ghostbusters fan 9. 3D Doritos - didn't know they were gone and am sad now. 10. Crystal Pepsi - heard of it, but I was too young to remember it (I don't even remember if I was allowed to drink soda back then, I was only 3 years old NOTE TO MODS - THAT WAS IN 1993! I AM 22 NOW!) 11. Squeeze-Its - Didn't know they were gone and am EXTREMELY sad now. :'( In fact, I was just thinking about them last week, wondering where I could get some... 12.

I really don't classify any of those as foods and more as a mish mash of chemically altered edible contents to make them taste better than they should.
From: BakusaiTenketsu | #072 Just means you ate a 6 year old bag of candy.
That would explain why they didn't taste as good as they used to. Or maybe I just don't really eat candy anymore so I don't appreciate it as much. I went into a slight frenzy when I saw them in a store though and bought like 3 packs.

I miss Twizzlers Twist-n-fill. Apparently they still make them, but I haven't seen it since I was in middle school, like 10 years ago. Those sour filled ones are nasty.

You should try a "Kinder Surprise.' Sadly, they're illegal in America due to choking hazard claims 'cause they have cool toys inside, but if you're ever up in Canada, pick some up. They're honestly a lot better tasting than Wonder Balls, and the toys are a lot better.
From: VintageGin | #093 Oh yeah, another thing that could be on the list:
Salsa Verde Doritos. No idea if they're currently discontinued or not...they seem to phase in and out of existence from what I've seen.
They seem to still be sold in some regions, but the current recipe is not at all what it was in the original late-90s version. Those had some heat, these aren't much of anything.
