OT: Discontinued snacks you want brought back
- Thread starter dahliaclone

Every now I then something triggers childhood and snacks/candy that have since gone by the wayside that I wish they still had around. What are your picks that you wish they brought back?
Mine:
I can't even find a pic of these but there was a competitor to Combos in the 80s called Doolies. Heads and shoulders better than Combos and I still love Combos. Basically they were hollow/ridged potato snacks like Combos but the center was sour cream and onion and you could literally suck out the filling. They were incredible.
Possibly my biggest wish though is having Hy Vee bring back their take and bake pizza called Moose Brothers. Holy **** was that stuff amazing.
Bonkers will reportedly return this summer.

Wait. What? Seriously?
My goto at DQ is a chocolate cone with cherry dip.
That’s what the girl at the Ankeny DQ told me when we went in for the 2 for 4 deal.
The worst part about is they still carry the butterscotch.
Gawd those were awesome
Basically a chocolate base, layers of crushed peanuts and caramel, topped off with a little more chocolate.
I lived off Schwan's Pizza Burgers, Spaghettios and Cream Corn as a kid.
So disappointed when they were discontinued, I was/am a picky eater and it was one of the things I would always eat. My mom tried calling and figuring out if she could get them and would have paid to have them shipped from the moon if we had to.
I've tried a few at other places, most I don't even like and couldn't finish. Had one at Draught House and it was not good, don't even think I could finish it. The only serviceable replacement is Expresso at the Sinclair gas station in Lansing, IA.

Oh, and KFC needs to bring these back:
I was full-on going to come post about Butterfinger BBs. They were awesome!
I need Clearly Canadian's comeback to be more than just a limited edition marketing ploy.
These too. And I get reminded every holiday season because Culkin is chowing on a bag of them in Home Alone at home point.
At first glance, an ice cream cone is not what I saw
The girl at DQ couple days ago said that cherry dip is now discontinued.
I'll take "Snacks That Can Rot in Hell" for $500, Alex.
Lime was my favorite and I hate green apple. It doesn't go with the other flavors.
I tried spaghettios once as a kid. At that point I knew what evil tasted like.
I want Hershey to make Sixlets again. Since they sold the name, the coating on them taste like crap.
