They still sold it last time I knew. There for along time I could never find it but several years back I saw the stores around here starting to carry it again.

C3POS - One of the nastiest breakfast Cereals of all Time, but I loved the Comercial and forced my Mom to buy it... She in return, forced me to eat it...

Why was it so nasty? What did it taste like?

It really did not taste like anything, I recall eating a milkbone on a dare, and it was about the same. It was just crunchy non-flavored figure 8's. It is like they took cheerios, and robbed it of what little flavor it had and then glued two together.

But I suppose human cyborg interface droids do not have taste buds, so you cannot take it out on C3PO... He did not know any better...

Gold Nugget Gum, came in a pouch, and it was a ton of shards of gum coated in this yellow hard shell. Looked nothing like gold, but it was still cool... It would absorb all kinds of moisture when you had it in your pocket when you were out playing, but after enough chewing it was all good..

anyone old enough to remember the foam containers McD's used to use...

They came out with the McDLT
It was a two compartment container.. the Burger on a Bun on one side, and the top with the lettuce and tomato on the other, so "You get the hot side hot; get the cool side cool"

Are you talking about the pies or the fries fried in lard? I know that some McD's do still sell the fried apple pies....I don't think the cherry anymore. And, I'm pretty sure they don't do the lard anymore at any location in the U.S..

By the way, I was one of the few who liked the Arch Deluxe. I liked the creamy mustard sauce and the semi-sweetbread bun that came with it.

OH DUDE!!!!!! That's my favorite ice cream cone too! I think that's made by Good Humor. They actually still sell it in certain states. Here in CA, it was made by another company for the past few years.....something Bunny brand. But, it's not the same.

That would be awesome if it turns out that the Good Humor brand is being sold again in the Bay Area! I have to check tomorrow!Smilie
oh hell yea dude. its been years since i ate that ice cream. last time i had it was probably in high school. everytime i think about it, it gives me good memories of being a child again. it was so hard trying to find that ice cream. if you do find them, fedex me a years supply.

this thread makes me feel good thinking about the old days when everything was fine and dandy. i remember watching happy days. good show.

Big Lots and other closeout stores carry a lot of discontinued stuff.

I remember seeing a dusty 6 pack of Pepsi blue in a Mexican supermarket in 2005. I was tempted to buy them but the they weren't fizzy anymore.
