We've all had this hapenned. We got used to, and in some cases, fell in love with a product or brand, only to see it disappear off the face of the earth.
Once treasured hallmarks of our consumer driven society are vanishing like vapor as if they were never there. Gone are the days that Supa can just wake up one morning after having slept with some random bloke, and stop by a Waffle House before going back home to shower up and not return phone-calls. Waffle Houses are disappearing nationwide.

We've all seen brands we've loved just vanish.


For example

What happened to Kellog's Just Right cereal?



I used to love this stuff. Whole grain toasted goodness that satisfied my morning hunger when I was on a high fibre diet, or served as my nemesis--a seductive temptress that would do me no good (much like Anxiety) when I'm doing my Raw foods diet. Either way, Just Right has always always been there.


Now, I simply couldn't find it on ANY store shelves here on this side of Tampa all week.


Now I know why. The Wikipedia article on it says the cereal was discontinued in March Upidy cereal snobs, Kellogs turned out to be http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_Right


Why is it that Tang can survive all these years and Just Right die such a quick death? Tang!




What brands do you miss?

REAL Pudding Pops, not the fake ass ones they make today

And its close relation "dweebs".

Anxiety said:

god damn you

I spit all over my laptop over that stupid joke!

horatio said:

I don't really even know what they taste like.
Real pudding?

thesexofit said:

I don't recall the last time i saw those either.
I would imagine they're still a popular halloween item cause they come in small, individual sized boxes, and they must be cheap as hell to make.


God save us if nerds/dweebs are discontinued but we still have to deal with candy corn.

i miss my sweet, sweet, (nutra)sweet nectar.

gross

thesexofit said:

Nerds still exist!

They're jsut getting harder to find. And for some reason, I can only ever find two kinds these days. The one you pictured, and the green and yellow box.

my mum always asks my boys if they would like "Lite & Tasty" or "Heavy & bland" for breakfast

Imago said:

yup

Imago said:

Motherfuckers brought back Good N Fruity, but they're all fucked up.

That was upsetting.

Anxiety said:

There are so many things I want to say about that spam.

My kids got lots of them on Halloween...my wife was sweeping them up all over the house for WEEKS!!!!

Only because when I was a teenager, my dad bought a Pacer

...which was supposed to be MY car when I learned how to drive.

Then about a year or two before I was old enough to get behind the wheel...he got into an accident and totaled it.

Is it too soon to say...

......

I used to like this soda PEPSI LIGHT. It had Lemon in it... And coke with Lemon was Great. There also were CHEEZ WAFFLES which were Great and I liked that Fruit Stripped Gum and that gum that tasted like ICE-CREAM flavors...

MRGee said:

I actually liked it to a point, once in a while was ok but all the time got old.

Oh yaeh Anxiety those are them. I can't find them. Another hing I TOTALLY FORGOT was this BUTTONI TOASTER PIZZA. This was so GREAT as a KID... Thank God they still make TAB and FRESCA....They also used to have that BUTTERWORTH BREAD with BUTTER on top. I also liked PEARL DROPS ORIGINAL packaging. And ya know what was really COOL? They had different flavors of POTATO CHIPS by HERRS..TACO, PICKLE, STEAK. And there was a CHESEPEAKE CRAB one. One night I went to like 5 Supermarkets to get Every Weird Flavor I could. And they used to make a PINK POPCORN and the popcorn stores used to have Flavors in the VILLAGE like LIME,Watermelon, stuff like that.
