I miss the Element drinks by Snapple. Those things were awesome. I had 1 bottle of every flavor on a shelf (The bottles were empty of course). Atomic (Apple cider) and Earth (Grape) were the best.

Im not too sure if those are discontinued, my friends mom works at a local super market and there was one on the shelf! I had been wanting one for weeks and i found one! The Dragonfruit flavor... im not sure which one this was though =| My favorite had to be Rain (cactus nectar) it was awesome!

Panera's turkey flatbread. IT had garlic creme cheese, turkey, cranberry mostarda and spinach, and was fucking amazing

You can still make it if you order there, just without the mostarda

The "chicken patties" made out of beef, pork and chicken that we used to get served in elementary school. Stuff was yummy and I haven't found any as good since then.

There's two things that sometimes I remember, but can't pretty much find anymore.
Yogurt and forest fruit galatine
5d8beaa735400feead4d40d3f8d8573f
and this kind of ice-cream
original-a-super-blob-revival-goloso-con-il-super-blob-14130545-1-ita-it-revival-goloso-con-il-super-blob-jpg.jpg

For the first one, there are other kinds, but none taste as good as the ones that are discontinued.
While the latter, I've seen that ice-cream around again, but... it doesn't taste at all how I remember from my childhood.

I see we have some necromancers. All good though. I also wonder how many things came back since this was first posted, and things that might have joined them.

These Drinks has no longer NOTHING to do with the original Receipt(s),they where awfully "altered"....Bääää......View attachment 225635
So for me personal they are discontinued.

Most of the time the alterations are to reduce sugar or switch to a sugar alternative.

There are however still places that might go the more old school ways (I believe you were around for that discussion the other month on Irn Bru) so you might find something there.

Anyway Burgen cranberry bread. I don't normally do bag breads in the supermarket these days if I am doing bread (the bakers will sell me UK style corn bread, cheesy bread or something fun, though 95% of bread products I do are wraps) but this was really quite nice.

Anyone else old and British enough to remember Ice Magic?

yes. It was amazing as you topped your cheap ice cream with this chocolate sauce and it hardened. I liked the mint one.

I also miss full sugar drinks as most companies that sell in the uk have spoiled their drinks with sweeteners rather than letting the customers decide. The proper Ribena was lovely. Now it just tastes horrible

-There were these crackers that i loved, they changed to a new recipe with less salt, i stopped buying them, then they dissapeared, other people must have thought the same thing i did, don't remember the brand name, only that instead of the traditional cracker package, it was a red, plastic bag, with all of them loose on the inside
-Another one i can't recall the name: there were these sweets that came in a bag, inside there were a copy of what americans know as pop rocks, and a foot shaped lolipop: the idea is you'd suck on the lolipop, then put it in the bag so its covered in pop rocks, and repeat, two flavors, cherry and grape
-Cocacola Life: Most people i knhow hated it, but it's the only variant of coke i liked besides the original, i can't stand light/diet or zero
-Beldent Infinite Bubblegum, it's not discontinued, it's just now it's only different strengths of mint, but there used to be Banana and Grape flavors, not available anymore
-Lays: another one where the discontinued are two flavors, they were limited editions so it's not a surprise, they had the consistency of ruffles, though a bit smaller on average, there was original, ketchup and bacon&onion, the latter two are the ones i miss
-Pepsi Twist. i don't miss this one so much because i can always put lemon on regular pepsi, however, it makes the foam take a long time to settle down, it's fun the first time but if in a hurry it's annoying, that and the fact i didnt have to squeeze my own lemons, again saving time
-Some Conaprole ice cream flavors: i don't expect many people to recognise this one, given the cooperative is local, and even in such a small country, doesnt cover the entirety of it. Irish-like chocolate w/chocolate cream, Irish-like chocolate w/dulce de leche, isrish-like chocolate&mint (as in, half the tub is chocolate, other half is mint, not a full tub of mint with chocolate chips, that one they stopped making before i was born) and american cream w/chocolate chips are all flavors they dont make anymore, but i miss them, i don't know the difference with other types of chocolates, i just really liked having mostly chocolate ice cream, as for some reason only chocolate is not a flavor they make, the closest there is is chocolate w/orange but i dont like it

For the last four years, when I actually had to travel to uni, I tried to get Subway breakfasts as often as I could.
However, one day they just didn't offer Thousand Island sauce anymore, which is stupid. Thousand Island was my favourite sauce, dammit!

Also, within the last year or two, a nice supermarket near uni that sold plenty of uncommon lollies and drinks and stuff was unfortunately shut down - to be replaced by a goddamn Burger King, of all things. That pissed me off.
