Also, each of these bitches except garlic were fucking delicious. I used the chipotle ones on pork chops and boneless chicken thighs, the onion ones in cauliflower mashed potatoes and the cilantro ones for making moros y cristanos (IE Cuban black beans and rice). I seldom used them in any other ways besides those but holy fuck, were the just perfect.

Pepsi blue. They brought it back during summer 2020 and then, poof. The fuck man, that's literally the only good pepsi product because even though midnight black mountain dew got voted into production, it also has mysteriously disappeared.

I was gonna say the chick-fil-a spicy chicken biscuit, but I see it on the app menu. Ever since they took it off the breakfast drive thru menu, I haven’t gone to cfa for breakfast. Fug.

>>19711094
Coke leaves should be legal to buy in stores. Basically the same as coffee.

>>19711165
How is this different from powdered spices? Appears to be a compressed powder cube.

>>19711419
All I can tell you is that the onion one doesn't taste like onion salt, the chipotle one doesn't taste like chipotle powder and if you dry and powder cilantro, you'd know it tastes like slightly grassy nothing and not all like cilantro. To be fair, neither did these cubes, but they were tasty af.

I miss it already fuck.

I ate picrelated all the time when I first moved out of my mom's house because I didn't know how to cook yet, at the time I thought it was yummy but I bet if I eat it now I'd hate it because the meat in it is very low quality frozen food meat. I think the last time I had it was around Christmas in 2021, and I haven't seen it since, maybe the FDA banned it from being sold because of all the burnt plastic that would end up in the food.

>>19711724
>hamburger helper exists
>this nigga buying knockoffs

Eclipse cinnamon flavored mints.
I don't want no strawberry or spearmint. The cinnamon flavor was the best.

Olestra

>>19711733
Back then I was so retarded that I didn't know how to cook meat. Since then, I've tried making Hamburger Helper and it came out good, but I still need to figure out what seasoning they used in the Stouffer's bootleg that I ate to get the slop flavor just right. Maybe it was the burnt plastic this whole time?

>>19711151
"Blue cheese" and "light" isn't really what I'd like to see together.

haven't seen wasabi flavored doritos for sale in a while. miss em

>>19711094
ANY food from 1976.
Fuck...ALL of them, why not? We should have that ability.
By that I mean, Before the Subsidies, the GMO push for Glyphosate and the lack of artificial bullshit in most everything now.
I want Hostess fruit pies with FRUIT in them that were cooked in TALLOW.

>Taco bell
I miss their Taco Salads, it was my go to when they had them, and they had them for years. They must not have sold many or not been worth it, but I loved them.
>>19711579
I wish they'd just keep the McRib around. It's the only thing I can eat from there where I don't feel like complete shit afterward.
>>19711751
good for you for learning how to cook, shame we can't share a meal together, I love hamburger helper.

>>19712028
Every thtread everytime i miss this little nigga like you wouldnt belief

>>19712061
I know bro. I get the mini strawberry cheese cake from walmart sometimes, but it's just not the same. My mom would get them when I was in mid teens I think, and she would always be super pissed when I ate them lol

>>19712046
>I wish they'd just keep the McRib
Anon, you can do so much better.
I worked at MickyD's when I was 15 and they had just brought it back(mid 80s)
It was garbage then, and it's garbage now.
They literally have NO TASTE, until they are "Steeped" in the BBQ sauce for 30 minutes first.
Then it's just pickles and onion strips on a toasted hoagie bun.
Seriously--Buy the supermarket knock-offs, put 'em in a pan with your choice of BBQ sauce(I suppose Sweet BabbyRayciss's Smokey would do, and simmer for 30-40 minutes.
Toast the hoagie bun DRY or with just a little butter on a hot pan(heat first) and add the other 2 ingredients.
Cheaper for you and better in the long run--
>y-You DO have a kitchen you can use safely, right?RIGHT??

>>19711721
>images you can taste

>>19711724
I make offensive MexicUN food every Cinco de Mayo, usually taco-mac. I say "UN" because it's okay far from actual Mexican food, as exemplified by my taco-mac. It's all homemade and all, but fuck me sideways if it's still not proppa sloppa.

Crumble cook beef with taco spices; drain and reserve fat and tip out beef into a baking dish.
With the rendered fat and additional oil as necessary, make a roux and mount it with chopped onion and green peppers. Chillis or bells or both.
Add tomato juice to the roux and whisk through to make something of a redchamel sauce.
Par-boil elbow mac the drain.
Toss mac with the cooked beef and "taco cheese" shreds.
Stir in redchamel, add more taco cheese on top and bake until bubbly.
Serve with cold homemade tomatillo salsa.

:'(

>>19712079
This nigga makin spapeggy and meatballs

>>19712073
oh yea, I make them on my own sometimes and understand what you're saying in that almost all the taste is the sauce, onion, and pickles, but still only thing I can eat from there without feeling shit. I love the big mac, but it makes me feel like complete shit after eating it, so I stopped. Now I just make hamburgers at home sometimes and slather it in thousand island.

>>19712073
i forgot to say, I think it has something to do with their oil. Burger Buns, Fries, Nuggies, etc all are coated in that oil, but the McRib I don't think is. That's my theory anyways.

>>19712090
>understand what you're saying in that almost all the taste is the sauce, onion, and pickles
No SIR!!
You DON'T unnerstan...
There IS NO TASTE UNTIL, the BBQ, onions and pickles.
I tried it without sauce, freash off the clamshell griddle for my EMP.meal one time..
Nothing...WET cardboard, MAYBE.
I wasn't even hungry afterwards.
>Standard McPloyee meal=Double QP with cheese and a Med FRY..
T. haven't eaten there since I quit.

>>19712095
>atmospheric oil on everything in the heart of the factory...
I dunno, anon.
like I said, I haven't eaten there for over 25 years.
I saw a video here or on YT or something, showing how they do it today, but...

>>19711094
Trix before they added the "berry" flavor. Its a flavor from my earliest memories I can't get back

>19712113
I should add, The buns were in standard Bread delivery flats, wrapped in plastic and 2 Deep.
Not a TON of chance that they would get covered in anything.
But then, in 1988, we still gave a fuck about service, and 99% of fast food workers would never DREAM of spitting of defiling a customer's burger.
Now, the SHAKES....

>>19712084
With neither spapeggy nor meatballs, sure.

>>19711579
This, and the ingredients are so simple to keep around. Fuck mcdicks for canceling it, won't eat there again unless im blackout drunk (tomorrow)

>>19711724
Stouffer's are decent depression meals as far as freezer food goes. The lasagna was pretty decent, better than canned, but still meh tier. Only thing I can direct compare to is the Swedish meatballs, which I could beat hands down 100% doing myself. I'm too lazy to do a lasagna (plus I don't want 6 jars of leftovers).

>>19711751
Oh, I bet you it is the fake cheddar flavor. That is usually the main difference between real food and the frozen food slop is they use fake cheddar enzyme shit, or punch it up with like yeast extract or MSG. You can actually buy some of the shit the commercial dudes use, obviously MSG and yeast extract are on the grocery store shelves, but you can find some of the weird enzymes and shit in powder form too. Probably a buttermilk powder for this particular one, if they are claiming "tangy".

>>19711094

>>19711758
Me neither, believe me, but I tried a box wit somebody reason and they we just really good.
I know they're newly available in the UK, and full fat iinm, and there's a Polish knock off brand I bought once that's okay but the OG ones were fantastic.

>>19713377

>>19711513
knorr has a way of changing the flavour of their products to suit the region
for example in denmark the "bearnaise" sauce doesnt taste like real bearnaise sauce at all but when they changed the recipe to make it taste like real bearnaise sauce it was met with backlash because people loved the old fake sauce

>>19711606

The original Kinder Happy Hippo snacks.
God I miss them so much.
I'd stab a random person if they would bring them back

>>19714788
They deemed the name to be problematic so they changed it.

>>19712773
Indeed

original sour gushers
>>19713171
oh fuck yes

>>19714897
When I was a kid, I had a kinder hippo bank. When my parents bought it, it was filled with mini eggs but once they'd been eaten, I used the plastic hippo to hold other things, like small toys and shit. No one seems to remember the kinder mini eggs. Maybe it's just an Italy thing, like there giant kinder eggs are.

>>19714874
I'm aware. I'm from one country, grew up in another one one a different continent and now live in a third on yet another continent, lol.
Last year or so, I bought knorr onion cubes from Poland and they were completely different (and complete shit). All the American and Mexican knorr cubes and powders blow except for >>19711165 and the Mexican shrimp powder and ham cubes.

>>19711139
Damn they really got rid of these? I remember I had one years ago and it was fucking good

I remember drinking a New Coke and liking it. That was so damn long ago now I would like to have one now just to compare to a regular Coke and a Mexican Coke.

wonka mud sludge

>>19715064
I went to an ice cream truck the other day and asked for one and the guy told me they discontinued them during covid.
It's a damn shame.

>>19711151

now there are the new sprinkled covered ones but I swear they do not taste the same as picrel

>>19712035

You just know if they did they'd fuck with the formulation for profit and pretend it was always like that because nobody kept them around long enough to compare.

>>19711094

>>19712816
For fuck sakes you think they would make it full time with the amount of tacos in the US. Call it the McPeno

Portabello Mushroom from Carls Jr burger made me jizz in my pants, something about the gravy made it taste so good, cant be assed to break out gravy and mushrooms when I make burgers myself

https://carlsjr.com.mx/menu/portobello-mushroom-thickburger

Apparently its available in fucking Mexico of all places

Return to tradition

Every once in a while they bring back a snack or drink for a limited time that are regularly posted in these threads, and every one I tried was a disappointment and inferior to existing alternatives.

>>19716334
I can't image this tastes good

>>19716621
Why?
Ever mixed Nutella or Chocolate with Peanutbutter? That's essentially what that is

>>19711600
Woah these came and went real quick

>>19716270
I still find it interesting that the main reason these got canned was that one specific pesticide mainly used in tangerine farming got banned in the US and making tangerine extract just wasn't viable enough in profits anymore due to lower farm yields.

>>19716642
You know theres more to a snickers than peanuts a chocolate right

"Fully Loaded Nachos are a limited-run promotional variety of nachos found at most Taco Bell locations during the fall and winter of 2008-2009. They feature a heaping portion of tortilla chips topped with a double portion of ground beef, Fiesta Salsa, guacamole, refried beans, a three-cheese blend, sour cream, Crunchy Red Strips, and nacho cheese sauce, served in an edible bowl made out of tortilla chip material."

It was a fucking heaping pile of everything on the normal nacho but way too big. Fuck tacobell for making all the best items temporary.

>>19716674
You know what the word "essentially" means, right

>>19715342
they were fucking amazing, cant believe they took them off the market considering how good they were
the taste is still fresh in my mind from 20 years ago

>>19711094

I really miss it.

>>19716226

Threadly reminder, this is completely unsubstantiated the /ck/ lore:
>>/ck/thread/14433564#p14436967

>i actually worked for C&B back when they were owned by united biscuits, and left back in like 2002. the real reason they quit making them was due to legislative changes with the FQPA (H.R.1627) passed under Clinton. There was some time to phase them out, but the problem was that the tangerine extract was such a pesticide intensive process that they really could not turn a profit without totally revamping the supply chain. i'm talking like, 600% price hike in tangerine extract. you're never going to hear that, "the reason we quit selling them was because legally we couldn't let humans consume that level of organophosphate residues", but that's the reason. it was a fucking time bomb and crushed many of their fruit flavored altoids lines. it took years to negotiate the deal with Wrigley to scoop up the company, but C&B was struggling hard by then and my position had long been "reorganized".

>>19716780
I tried them today thanks to that thread.
They are fucking shit. They are not crispy at all, has a creamy outside. Thanks for nothing, faggot.

The original organic Virgil’s Root Beer recipe before it got bought out. It no longer has that distinct herbal bite and now tastes like any other mass market slop. Boylan Bottleworks is still around at least.

>>19712090
Also, if you put a pinch of unsweetened cocoa powder in your couple Tblsp.s of Thousand Island dressing, you have Big Mac sauce..
When I worked there, the manager made a big deal about it being "The Secret ingredient"
I guess she should know, she was going to Hamburger University at the time.

Lizard Blizzard. Also they used to have glass bottles that made excellent gravity bongs.

>>19711606

Jalapeno double from McDonalds.

This is also really old(mid 90s). KFC used to dip their spicy wings in bbq which made my cum every time. There was a hint of spiciness and the bbq sauce was sticky as fuck.
I was devastated when I ordered it and found out they stopped doing offering it.

>>19711721
When I lived in the middle of bumfuck nowhere, the YMCA by my house had those pizza chips and tato skins.
Legit the best chips I've ever had.
Never saw them offered anywhere else until I moved to a bigger city and found them at Meijer.

>>19712816
My friend managed a McD's when the Jalapeno McDouble was on offer, and it didn't sell well. Jalapenos would arrived in big buckets and shelf life was limited once opened. Not easy at all of an ingredient to keep around.

>>19712894
Guarana has a raspberry/grape kind of flavor. There’s other drinks nowadays with it but no more Josta, which was apparent the first energy drink according to Wikipedia.

My favorite energy drink for $1 a can. I miss it so fucking bad. I had it in both cans and bottles. Still have an unopened bottle.

i dunno if it was good or not... but i'm curious and i liked how it looked...
(Was literally only available for like 9 months i think. The marketing campaign was wild too. YTV had a countdown and everything for it.)

>>19719056
the ridges act as reinforcements and the chip becomes more durable

>>19718231
I think they're gone now and it's probably cause they didn't sell well enough, the whole thing was botched honestly
>people want thing back for years
>make thing mildly related and make them a different texture and thickness

All they had to do was bring them back and they would have had another product to sell constantly.

>>19719092
You can still get these. Probably a different formula though.
I miss the blue Jolt from the 2000s.

i would strangle everyone here with my bare hands one by one for just one more box

I've probably only had these twice in my life but I'll never forget them

Technically seasonal I'm pretty sure but it was the best ice cream I've ever had in my life and the Little Debbie version is dogshit in comparison

I miss these motherfuckers like you wouldn't believe. One of the best hot dogs ever made but Americans wouldn't buy them because of their bizarre, Hebraic perception of pork as unclean and low quality.

>>19711094
They discontinued takis guacamole and salsa brava in the US, which sucks major dick cause they were actually the bearable takis flavors.

>>19711094

>>19715301
it briefly came back when stranger things season 2 came out.

I was born right around when it ended and now I see why. It tasted bad... idk how you liked it. It was twice the sugar and half the taste when compared to american HFC coke.

>>19711094
I didn't even know these existed till I found one at Dollar Tree so I tried it out and liked it, then went back and they were all sold out, so I looked them up and it turns out they were only out for a year and had been discontinued. The one Monster drink I actually like and I'll probably only get one can of it in my entire life.

>>19712035
I came here to post this. I’m glad you already did anon

>>19723141
Americans wouldn't buy them because people who buy hotdogs are either poorfags who buy the cheapest of the cheap hotdogs that are a mix of filler and reject meat or if they're willing to pay more they buy beef hotdogs which are objectively better than pork.

>>19724485

Ferrera managed to destroy pic related's entire brand because they're too arrogant to admit the new product line is a complete failure. Two years ago my store used to stock shelves of Famous Amos cookies before the shakeup, now it's only a few boxes on the bottom row.

I think it was these, they used to have little bits of trivia and stuff on the inside of the wrapper.

Muddles before they were called Multi-grain shapes, it was probably because I was a kid and had them on holiday and relate it purely to that memory, but they were great.

Fucking Sobe man. Life hasn't been the same since.

Vanilla kofola, Czechoslovakian "cola" soda that is locally made ever since commie days, much less sugar, more herbs.
The vanilla version was limited run in like 2012-2016, it was the only soda that I have ever tasted where the vanilla didnt have that shitty artifical taste. Pepsi and Cola have that fake artifical taste, cant stand it.
Would strongly appreciate any cola-vanilla tips or just vanilla, thanks
