I have a friend who works for a large chip company. Before she moved away, she used to give me free samples and some were the ones that they tested and decided to not sell. One sample of a potato chip had no flavor at all, it tasted of nothing. Was really weird.

Weird, I was a die hard Jolly Rancher addict as a kid and don't remember that at all, just the usual apple sticks. Must have come out after I got older and quit eating them. You're a lot younger than me.
It was probably in the early 80's. But yeah you remeber the apple ones, cherry etc these were just like those but a big chunk of caramel.

Oh, and Crystal Pepsi....although I guess that doesn't count since it's not a food.

it was so good that your taste buds broke which made you think that there was no flavor

Fritos Honey BBQ flavored, shaped like race cars! We'd take 'em and scoop plain cream cheese...ok, I would do it but man they were good...

Now I've only seen the twisty things and they don't even taste the same - almost like they are rice crisp straws instead of corn chips...

Oh wow. I loved Fanta Red Creme Soda as a kid and looked for it for years. Finally got confirmation that it was discontinued. That was a sad, sad day. Weeping

My ultimate favorite lunch food every day in the summer was good ole Mac & Cheese Mug-o-lunch. I still miss those things!

And the best artificial snack food, especially on long car trips was Planter's Cheez Balls. Nothing like 'em!
