God I miss....
 

Post pictures of the things you used to enjoy or buy that are no longer available, and you wish they were. I wish someone would remake my favourite choc bar ever...

Warning: this thread may make you hungry....

There are tons of sodas that I used to like that aren't sold anywhere anymore. Everybody seemed to hate this stuff:

It only lasted like a year but I loved every bottle of it that I ever got.

Also Vanilla Coke :(

Apparently Vanilla Coke is being sold again in the US, so one can only hope that it makes it's way across the border once again. :(

I was listening to the 2005 Cream reunion tour on DVD in the background, as I came across this thread, and the song that was playing was "Sleepy Time Time" so this came to mind...

Those of you who were around and old enough to party in the 70's & early 80's will probably know what I'm talking about.

rip best cereal

Or everybody that went to see The Wolf of Wall Street this year...

You can buy all the methaqualone you want online.

Those genuine RORER 714's are long gone, though.

You've just got me interested in seeing a movie I hadn't had any particular interest in seeing until now.

I'd imagine. What does a quaalude do, anyway? could you compare it to anything? I mean, obviously, I've never done it. Erowid lists it as a sedative/intoxicant, but I couldn't imagine dancing and clubbing and partying hard (which I've read is what people enjoy doing) whilst sedated, though that's just me, naturally it differs from person to person.

On a similar note:

Trust me, I know why it's gone and why it probably won't ever come back, because I swear I was the only person who drank this ****, but it was awesome, way better than regular Pepsi.

Hydrox were better than Oreos. They came out with these things again in '08, but they were only around for about a month, apparently for the 100 year anniversary.

This was my go-to when I was staying up all night playing GameBoy Pokemon and PS1. I don't think I had any other kind of pop from '96-'03. Vault was kind of the same thing, but that was also discontinued on two separate occasions. Apparently Coke just can't compete with Pepsi's Mountain Dew.

My personal experience with 'Ludes' (as we used to call them back in the day) was more of a sexual enhancement than a club/dance drug. If you knew the right amount to take under the right circumstances, it was a wonderful drug to enhance a sexual experience. If you didn't know what you were doing and you overdid it, you were more likely to fall flat on your face and pass out.
A lot of people I knew liked to combine them with booze and/or other drugs just for the high, though.
Vicodin might be the closest I can think of as a comparable effect.

Hair.

Yeah except Pro Stars was a different cereal that no longer exists, rather than frosted flakes with flutie on the cover haha. Froot Loops had a promotional thing that had stars in it and they were amazing and probably the closest we'll ever get to the legend of Pro Stars.

I hardly drink hot coffee, but I like coffee flavored hard candy like nips, coffee flavored ice cream and oddly enough coffee soda. But I don't miss it nearly as much as Vanilla Pepsi.:love: Why in the world did the Pepsi company discontinued it? :(

Oh yeah, I know. I was just reminded of Doug Flutie's cereal haha. They brought Flutie Flakes back in the US for a short time in 2008 I think, but that's it. I remember my mom bought some boxes back in the late 90's when they were being sold though. I think all the proceeds from that cereal went to help kids with autism, which is great.

I drank a vanilla coke the other day, I would have sent it to you if you had asked

Mostly I miss the cans (illustrated by the likes of Daniel Clowes and Charles Burns among others) and the bizarro marketing campaign.

That's pretty cool. What are they? I can see "a carbonated beverage" just not what sort.

It basically tasted like if you took every flavor in a soda fountain and poured it into the same cup.

Ludes? ****in ludes, pull out the ludes dudes ****in ludes......

Yes, I loved Surge so much along with Vault.

http://www.bubblews.com/assets/image...1356847476.jpg

Although screw this picture. I never saw any of the red ones.

oh man, the things i would do for a vault right now...

I haven't had one of those since middle school. They were frecking glorious

I also had one of the red ones once. Just imagine the red mountain dew, pretty much the same. The green vault though was unique enough that I loved it.

Quaaludes are basically a supporting character.

:clap:

hell i wouldnt even disagree if you called them a main character. they're basically the motivation for most of the conflict of the plot haha

Oh man, I used to have a bunch of those!

I would say Firefly, but what's the point? So instead...

Well you can probably imagine what Vault would taste like if they had their own version of Code Red. That's basically what it was. I always liked the citrusy cocktail thing that Vault had going on, and the cherry flavor was almost intrusive. It was OK, but you didn't miss out on much.

Rip

Laugh all you want at the irony, but these were called "Dad's cookies" and I would kill, disembowel and eat every member of my family for just one pack now. :(

Dear God! Pink Panther bar! Gimme!!!

They still sell those here. Love them!

I literally have a huge box of dads cookies in my pantry as we speak. One of the best "milk" cookies around imo

Aeon Flux

Great cartoon with a great confusing sci fi plot idk why they haven't made a remake of it

Dreamcast

http://www.brainfusion.org/images/dreamcast.jpg

I miss my Dreamcast and i miss Sega but it's funny i only miss the Saturn and the Dreamcast both consoles had alot of potential imo but sadly they both flopped

Crystal pepsi

http://images2.makefive.com/images/e...ar-pepsi-7.jpg

i can't remember the taste but i remember liking it more than regular pepsi

They have, twice. The first time was as a full length TV show in the 90s and the second time was as a live action movie in the 00s. Neither was even close to as good as the original shorts though.

i remember the 90's show that's the one i think they should bring back i also saw the movie but i didn't like it much

Will you send me some? Let me know how much and I'll paypal the money to you!!! :tramp:
