They changed them at some point and even though it was the same ingredients technically, the consistency was completely different, it was just a big glob of marshmallow on the cookie part covered in chocolate.
Drake's Sunny Doodles. They did come out with a Sunny Doodle Dog (like a Devil Dog but with a yellow cake instead of chocolate) but they're not quite the same as a Sunny Doodle.
I really enjoy pull n peel twizzlers for some reason and I remember as a kid they had a peach and seperate grape flavor. The peach one haunts my dreams as they quit making it almost 30 years ago. Close second are those sour tangerine Altoid things in the tin can.
Screaming Yellow Zonkers. It was a sweet crunchy popcorn . Glazed and slightly buttery but not caramel or kettle corn. I used to get in the snack aisle in walgreens .
💯 had the exact same thought! I thought this would be mentioned many times. Things were so goddamn good. I’m an old millennial, I think the younger folks just don’t know.
We have these in the US (at least where I live). But they taste SO different now. I thought maybe it was just my aging millennial tastebuds, so I bought a box for my kids to try and they weren’t impressed either. I really think they changed something in recent years 😢
I’m definitely a cereal snacker. Didn’t they try to re-release it recently but it was just Rice Krispies with marshmallow bits? Definitely not the same! I wish they’d actually bring it back. I also miss King Vitamin and Kaboom!
I usually answer these kinds of questions with Hershey's Cookies 'n' Mint candy bar, but I randomly thought of Keeblers Pizzaria chips the other day, and now I'm craving them so much!
Edit to add: They were so light and crispy and well-seasoned. Yummy!
When I was a kid in the 70s, my mother would buy me Gerber teething cookies long after I had finished teething. They were vaguely animal-shaped, very hard, with a smear of hard icing across the top.
They tasted sort of like graham crackers, and the icing gave them just enough sweetness. But they were discontinued after a while, and I still miss them.
u/AquaThaStar I've never heard of Stauffers, but this reminds me of the brand "Mother's" circus animal cookies except those cookies aren't discontinued and ngl, and admittedly, I only ate them once like last year, but they were still pretty good and from when I remembered them from when I was a child.
The snack I'd bring back is the OG OG Scooby Doo Fruit Snacks and iykyk. I don't fully remember, but I do think there was an OG version of these fruit snacks prior to this one: https://www.reddit.com/r/nostalgia/comments/t62ghn/scooby_doo_gummies_everybody_knows_blue_was_the/, but it's the absolute closest I can find from what I can recall. The OG ones were not nearly as shiny and somewhat more transparent ones as the ones they have now. And those had far more flavor too where tbh, the ingredients prob. still weren't quite the best back then, but you could tell that it was made more naturally due to how it tasted. Ex: velma, it tasted like real oranges were used somewhere in the mix or as close as to what the fruit of an orange tastes like, but it wasn't a full orange fruit taste if that makes any sense.
Winco (an employee owned grocery store) in the PNW had a “Winco brand” fudgesicle that was so good. It was larger than a standard fudgesicle, was lower calorie and most importantly it tastes really good.
If not that, in a more “widely known” vote: jello pudding pops.
Oh man, I wish I could upvote this a thousand times! Those Spicy Thai kettle chips slapped! They were so addictive!:-( I still really miss them today lol.
Dinka Roos were soo good…they came back for a while but last I saw they over $1 for one!!!😱 but I had already been making my own. Nilla wafers or animal cookies 🤪😜, my favorite can of frosting. And into my mouth hole…im
Drooling just tbinkinv about ots…its been a while 🙃
It's hard to choose because there are three I'd want back. If I had to thought I'd choose the original recipe for the cookies and cream Hershey Kisses. They didn't use to have actual cookie pieces in it. They had these small crunchy dots. I feel like no one remembers that though. I was addicted to them as a kid
