Thin Bits. Tiny cinnamon graham crackers squares from twenty five-ish years ago.
Bub's Daddy gum ~ I used to get it all the ballpark when I was little. Especially grape.
And for the love of all that is holy, bring back Screaming Yellow Zonkers. My favorite food of ALL time.

Butoni's Instant Pizza from the 70's. They were toaster pizzas disks. Once toasted they came out nice and crispy on the outside with molten hot tomato sauce and cheese on the inside. Always a mystery was a small spot in the center surrounded by the molten innards that was usually still frozen. Disgusting yet delightful. I used to love those things! I always hoped I would find them for my kids to try but never did. They would think they were gross but they are a great childhood memory of mine. |

Gucci III perfume. Seriously miss it.
Vavoom Shampoo and Conditioner. Matrix is still making the brand's styling products, but nothing works as well with my hair as this shampoo and conditioner.
CarbSmart used to have a much better variety of ice cream treats than they do now.

OMG. Two of my family's favorite discontinued items are now rereleased: Betty Crocker's Rainbow Chip Frosting and Drake's funny bones....I hope your favorite discontinued items reappear! My daughter told me just recently to start watching the shelves because she read that BC rainbow chi[p frosting is returning:). I haven't found it yet but she says she knows it is coming. We stalked a lot of stores...then found it at Target....and my daughter cleared the shelves LOL |

Maybelline eyebrow pencils in "charcoal gray." Black eyebrows look too harsh with gray hair.
I haven't seen them in the stores for a long time. Finally thought of ordering them online, but discovered that they are no longer available in that shade from the manufacturer. Why?? There are plenty of other gray-haired women out there! I did see some for sale on Ebay and other online outfits, but for an exorbitant price. I've tried other brands (the gray shades are rare among them also), but nothing else compares.

Tuxedo perfume by Ralph Lauren. Loved that scent! I always got complimented. Sad they stopped selling it.

Mr. Phipps Pretzel Chips... heck all the Nabisco pretzels IF they were made exactly like they were back then. I hate the Lays pretzels, all the Lays products have something in them that make me feel bad if I eat more than a handful.
I was so excited when I found out other companies were coming out with pretzel chips but none are good, all as hard as a rock, not the crisp but not hard Mr. Phipps Pretzel Chips.

My daughter works right next door to a Super target and I know as soon as I tell her that she will be racing over there. Thanks for sharing this info and I hope the frosting is as good as it is remembered  |

But do the Funny Bones taste the same? I know the return of the Hostess line was disappointing because nothing tastes the same. I would rather mourn the loss of my beloved Funny Bones than bite into one and find out that they are not the same. I can't get them out West anyway, so I have to stock up every time I am back East.

The original Tart n Tinys from the 80s. They were similar to Sweet Tarts in taste, but we're little cylindrical shaped pellets of sugar. My favorite were the lime ones! And speaking of lime flavored candy, why the hell have most of the candy companies discontinued lime flavored goodies??? They're all sour apple now which is just friggan disgusting!!! OMG, I know! I get so pissed when I have a green candy and it turns out to be apple. Blech! |

My BF would definitely say Pizzerias chip from the 80's. He talks about them frequently. This is exactly what I was going to say!! I didn't think anyone would remember them. They were by Keebler I believe. |

Jil Sander No. 4 perfume-- it was 'my' scent for years, and I had no idea they were discontinuing it!  I saved the empty bottle for years in hopes that I could find it again, but finally got rid of it recently. (I just saw that I could buy 3 oz on Amazon for $150, but I don't think I'll be doing that, lol... then again, maybe...) I always liked the Brach's pick-a-mix candy display in the store; my favorite was always Sour Balls- individually wrapped, lime, cherry, orange, grape, lemon... I could probably find it online somewhere, but I liked choosing my own mix; more green, red, and orange, and hardly any lemon- lol! I also LOVED Tart and Tinys!! ETA: a number of years ago, Kit Kat made a special flavor that had coffee-flavoring in with the chocolate. I don't like drinking coffee, but that Kit Kat bar was delicious! ETA 2: anyone else remember Marathon bars from the 70s?? Marathon bars-- with commercial. And I just found a ton of candy I remember, still available for sale on oldtimecandy.com... I may just have to place an order! |

I saw Funny Bones in Stop & Shop this past weekend!! I was tempted to get them but didn't. I hope you find them too. My DH bought them. I've never had/heard of them but he was all excited to have them with his coffee. |

The Benadryl ready dose packets. Those are literally a life saver for kids with allergies, but they don't sell them anymore.  I'm still trying to come up with another way for my dd to carry around a single dose of Benadryl. So far, every little container I have tried either leaks or is too big. I really wish they would bring those back! I have an allergy child as well. I read on an allergy forum that Walgreens and CVS carry their generic Benedryl in the single dose ready packs. I found some at our Walgreens. |

ETA: a number of years ago, Kit Kat made a special flavor that had coffee-flavoring in with the chocolate. I don't like drinking coffee, but that Kit Kat bar was delicious! Those Kit Kat bars that had the coffee-flavouring in with the chocolate is like a Nestle Coffee Crip bar.
As Hallowe'en is coming, there are a lot of the snack size of coffee crisp bars.
If you want some, I could mail them to you. I will pm you the price of the bars and the shipping. I live very close to the USA border so it would be domestic and not international shipping.

thanks for the offer! we have a specialty candy shop here; now that I know that's what they're like, I'll check to see if they have one of the Nestle ones to taste, and let you know... thanks again!  |

Saran (as in Saran wrap plastic cling wrap) used to make these disposable cutting sheets. awesome when cutting raw meat and chicken and you didn't want to hassle with disinfecting a cutting board afterwards. they discontinued them years ago and I would kill to have them come back again.

I miss Avon's Here's My Heart perfume. My Mom and grandmother wore it all the time.
I love the M&M's Cordial Cherry candies but can only find them around the holidays.

Just yesterday I went to Clinique and found out they have discontinued the foundation I use, I'm totally bummed, I don't remember the exact name, it was for extremely dry skin and came in a tube, it was a cream type foundation. I bought something different, color is ok, but it's more of a liquid than the cream I was accustomed to.

Vinyl repositioning shelving paper. Not the kind where you remove a backing and literally apply it to the shelf. This stuck like magic and was a breeze to remove. Can't find it anywhere.
