Favorite food as a kid that is no longer around?

This company used to make beans and weiners in a can when I was growing up, I was addicted. The last time I found some I was in a store in China Town my first year of college, I think it had been there a long time.

Chef Boyardee Mini Pepperoni Pizzas. They used to come 4 in a box. They were about the size of a CD and they were awesome. I loved them as a kid and then BOOM! They were gone.

Anyone remember Rondo? I miss that too.

There used to be a brand of chewing gum called Big Buddy. It came in a foot-long (or so they claimed) slab in a variety of dangerously sweet flavors. I also fondly remember a Bosco rip-off called Clanky. It was chocolate syrup that came in this brown plastic astronaut-shaped container. It was better than Bosco!

OK, I just thought of one and before you say, "Oh they still make those."...NO, THEY DON'T!
Salerno Holiday Jingles cookies. The anise-flavored hard, thin cookies shaped like Christmas symbols with red & green sugar crystals sprinkled on them. You could only get them at Christmas-time. They came in a clear, crinkly plastic tray inside the box and it would catch all the loose sugar sprinkles which was like a huge treat to devour when all the cookies were gone.
Yes, Keebler still makes them with the same molds but they have like 1/4 the amount of sprinkles and they changed the recipe. They don't taste the same!!!

JELLO Pudding Pops. I used to love the vanilla and banana flavors. You can't buy boxes of them, any longer, as far as I know. I think you may be able to get a small version of the vanilla flavor in a Fudgesicle variety pack.

All this talk about those McD hot pies has got me thinking about
how those pies and the cookies from McD back then were THE staples
of my childhood desserts/treats!
