Ever want some snack or whatever only to find out they quit making it years ago? Here are a few of my former faves:

Bacon Thins;
Kraft Clam Dip;
Kraft Bacon and Horseradish Dip;
Nehi Soda, esp. grape;
Pomac Soda (loved this as a kid, tasted like crap but looked like you were knocking back a Miller High Life!);
Howard Johnsons (the only restaurant we ever got to go to as a kid, we used to get the "Clamboat" and back then before Baskin Robbins HoJo's had 31 flavors of ice cream);
Pearl Light Beer

What am I forgetting?

Candy cigarettes.

Those can still be had relatively easily around here. They are kinda cheap though. :/ Come in little under-sized cartons with illustrations of things like indian heads or jets or such, and have a handful (maybe 15, I think?) of little candy sticks inside. Great stuff though, fun to just chew on for a while.

Edit: it's these: http://cgi.ebay.com/WORLDS-CANDY-CIGARETTES-24-COUNT-BOX-/140391959317?pt=LH_DefaultDoma in_0&hash=item20b0034b15#ht_500wt_9 22

Really? We never see them round these here parts. 'Course we never shop much at HyVee for anything but milk and produce -- too 'spensive.

I will have to go look there.
