Fanta Birch Beer. It's root beer. There is one resteraunt in Florida called Charhut that serves it in there fountain. I live in Kentucky now and can't find it anywhere. So addicted.

Mayfield snow cream. Seasonal. Wish I could get it in the summer. Would be perfect.
You might try looking for Boylan's Original Birch Beer. Boylan's sodas are comperable to Fanta in flavor and the Boylan's might be easier to find than the Fanta.

Some other options are on this link. I didn't know there were so many brands that do a Birch Beer.

Reeses Nutrageous Bar. May not be discontinued but harder to find in a store, seem to be replaced by 'fast break' which is not as good.
I agree, they were great. I can usually find them at gas stations.

Fast Breaks aren't anything like them IMO. I don't care for them at all.

They have a box of these at the gift shop in the hospital that I work at. I saw them and immediately thought of this thread but couldn't remember who liked them. nod

My DH loved planter's cheez balls...they discontinued them several years ago and I think they had them for decades! I guess they weren't selling well enough.

I used to love Mrs. Grass Chicken Soup (the one with the golden nugget) and couldn't find it for the longest time. It seems now that it is back, though now it's made by Wylers. Smilie

(though I have gotten so much free soup the last few months I think I'll be waiting a year or so until I try it again!)

I miss cheez balls too and the curlz FrownI found some imitators but they cannot complete with Planters. And the good thing, they were always around $1.

I really miss the Quaker Simple Harvest chocolate chunk granola bars. Does anyone know of a granola bar that is really, really soft, I hate the chewy and/or firm textures of the bars I've tried.

I could say something about gumming your food but I won't. Wink

The soft ones are almost like a soft cookie, it was a nice texture as you could really taste the oats and rice puffs that were in the bar. Most of the chewy bars are held together with corn syrup or some other binder which not only makes them too sweet, they tend to be really hard, not like a cookie at all. Frown

I saw the Reeses Nutrageous bars at Safeway the other day. They were on the aisle with all the other chocolate and candy.

Target has a store brand cookie that looks just like this. If there's a Super Target near you, go check them out. It might be the same cookie. I had never noticed them before until your post, then they caught my eye.

It never went away for me. I'll never forget a grocery trip where I bought only the soup and some Lay's potato chips. My receipt said "grass soup" and "pot chips." LMAO

Omg

Taco Doritos are back. Drool I saw them today at the grocery store. They are in the original retro looking bags, kind of like "throwback" Doritos. They say limited time only on the bag so keep an eye out for them if you have been craving some.

Having a serious craving right now for cheddar Keebler Munch'ems..... *drool* That list of discontinued food made me so sad!! I should never have even looked at it.

Does anyone know of anything even slightly resembling Munch'ems? Also, does anyone remember old Wheat Thins? Back when Sandy Duncan was spokesmom. Smilie They also made Oat Thins, and I'm pretty sure Wheatables were different, too. Very thin and almost chip-like and came in a foil inner bag. They were sooo good! Why do they ruin all my favorite snacks?!

This hasn't been discontinued but is hard to find: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violet_Crumble

Anybody seen it at a mass retailer?
