Discontinued foods or drinks that you miss

I have caught both and eaten fresh filleds of both and I am hard pressed to tell the difference. My largest Cod fish is 22 lbs and my largest Pollock is between 3 - 4 lbs, the size of the fish does make a difference in the taste the smaller are better tasting than the bigger fish. It has become very difficult to catch Pollock around here and you can still catch the occasional Cod locally.

All I can say is "we can".

The next time @dbostedo comes out to Reno, I imagine a trip to this candy store.

I would go... but wouldn't buy too much or it'll ruin my diet! I'm 44 pounds down since December, and still working on it.

Congratulations! Might have trouble bending your skis now.

Tried the wild berry, wasn't a fan at all. Not sure about the tropical. If I could buy a bag of just lime and grape skittles I'd be happy.

I like lemon, lime, and orange. The red and purple ones can go away.

And for me it's Vernors
It's slowly making its way west, and I can get it in the 12 packs in Colorado, but it hasn't made its way much further.

I do, occasionally find it in a mixer aisle where liquor is served....until....
Today!
I was shopping at our local grocery store and found it in 6 packs!
Granted it's not as affordable as it is in Michigan, but at least I can get a quick fix from time to time as a special treat.

My hubby drinks the diet Vernor's. To me, it still reminds me of being sick as a kid, since that’s the only time we ever had it. I can use it in a mixed drink, but still don’t really drink it straight.

Thanks... I guess I'll just have to ski faster.

Gravity is your friend. Mass helps with gravity. Skinny people (in general) are slower on the flats than heavier people. Ask me how I know!

Coconut Almond Chip was a great flavor. Better than an Almond Joy candy bar.

Yankee Doodles.

Can't find Drake's oatmeal cookies anymore- really liked their cinnamon/nutmeg/allspice flavor.

There is a candy store near the movie theater, so I went to see if they had anything resembling Tooty Frooties.
Nope.
They had a ton of other stuff that I didn't know still existed.
Did you know that they still make candy cigarettes??

Funny how social media impacts stuff like this.

The Choco Taco is not quite dead yet | CNN

A few weeks ago, Klondike appalled the internet when it said that the Choco Taco would be discontinued. This week, it reversed course, saying the beloved ice cream treat may be coming back — eventually.
