There was a sort of yogurt cup that was very spongy, not quite cheese cake thick but close. It was delicious and i forgot what it's called.
Looked it up just now and it might be the Yoplait Whips, but the container is different from what i remember (obv they changed it like all others).
I don't think i could find that in a local store though
Brisk fruit punch and sidekicks garlic alfredo spaghetti. Sad days when those were discontinued
Brisk fruit punch
hits Google Shopping
Looks like it's available.

The Sidekick's garlic alfredo is apparently still available in Canada, and one can order from there via various vendors that import it, if you're in the US:

I am in Canada, the Brisk Fruit Punch flavour was discontinued here. I guess it could be possible to import it if its still available in the US. I quite liked it, though not sure I liked it enough to pay the import and shipping fees Canadians are slapped with.. Maybe I'll order it once just to relive my college days once again haha
As for the sidekicks alfredo, I was talking about specifically their garlic alfredo spaghetti. They have a couple other alfredo packets that are fairly different to the one I am talking about. None of them were ever quite the same!
Quaker Crunchy Corn Bran was a cereal that had a terrible name, but was SO yummy. Puffins are similar, but not quite right.
Ocean Spray made a Cranberry Key Lime cocktail for a very short while and I loved it.
Eggo used to make a Nutragrain version, and since I only eat toaster waffles with peanut butter and syrup, I couldn't taste the difference and it made for a healthier breakfast.
I have nostalgia for things like Clearly Canadian and Orbitz, but pretty sure I wouldn't actually like them anymore.
I recently found Clearly Canadian in a grocery store and bought one on a whim. It tasted the way I remembered it.
I was going to say Snapple Elements, but apparently they're back on shelves within the last month.
Does it count if they still make the product but something changed so it doesn't taste the same anymore? If yes I definitely miss Termix don't know what they did but it's not the same. Also am lactose intolerant so can't really eat it anymore anyway. There's probably more things but this one I remember the most, also Pribináček.
I’d say Planter’s Cheez Balls and lime green skittles, but people wised up and brought those back recently.
Croissant Pockets. Hot Pockets also had a Beef and Cheddar flavor a long time ago and whatever equivalent they have now is not the same.
Smart Foods also used to have a spicy cheese popcorn but they changed it to an even hotter version. I can barely taste the cheese now. Bring back the original!
Polly waffles
Fiery Habanero Doritos
They introduced two new peanut flip flavours. One was Mexican and the other was oriental or something. They kept the Mexican one and ditched the superior oriental for some reason. Still thinking about them from time to time.
Devil's Food cake/cookies. Originally they were Nabisco: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/9b/a0/af/9ba0af2803a08d55bdc523ad21648559.jpg The red and yellow box. These were a wonderful memory from my childhood. Then you could only find Snackwell's version. They were like 95% of what I remembered, not exact but so close they were still good. The last box I got (in the before times) tasted absolutely terrible and nothing like they used to. Tasted like dryness and absence of sweetness with no chocolate flavor. Texture wrong, everything wrong. Amazon would not accept my review of the new recipe. I may have compared them to the Devil's butthole. Evidently those are discontinued now. I guess they went the route of making the new recipe so hateful we would celebrate the end of the production.
I'd love to be able to have something that tastes like the original ones though.
I remember, and miss them. My grandma always had them around back in the mid-seventies, and they were the treat of all treats.
She always had Buc-Wheats cereal in the pantry too.
Now and laters had some less common flavors that were soooo good. Cherry Cola 🤤Now it's impossible to find anything outside of the 4-5 flavors in big containers.
Cocoa Hoots cereal. Loved those; fifty years on and I still remember how they tasted…
