Peking Duck Pizza?! (mmmm.... I want to try...)
Let's see, what do I miss?
1. McDLT ("keep the hot side hot...")
2. Cherry Coke (never mind that vanilla stuff)
3. uh... drawing a blank on other stuff, but I know there's been lots
In another, less nostalgic experience, I was in at Staples the other day looking for those little First Aid kids they sold (here in Canada, anyway) for about $2. It was the perfect size to keep in the glove compartment, or in this case, in kids' hiking daypacks for summer camp (I leave next week). Unfortunately, just as I needed to buy a pile of them, I was told they were no longer sold, and wouldn't I much rather have the new delux-o-kit that they sell instead, for just $25?
I ended up getting little kits from the dollar store. I hope nobody gets hurt

There were these Hot Wings at KFC that I used to love when I was a kid. I guess they hurt their other sales (people didn't want anything but wings anymore) so they had to let them go

It's always been a seasonal sandwich, and is probably due to return any day now. Despite the "farewell tour".iGary said:Oh yeah, whatever happened to the McRib?

You can't get Cherry Coke in Canada?

I don't know if it's officially been discontinued, but I very rarely see it anymore (if ever).
They do have the Wild Cherry Vanilla flavour, or whatever it is, but it's not the same.
BTW - was anyone ever (un?)fortunate enough to try McLobster? I had only ever heard of it, but never tried one.
Well Apple no longer sell the iSight camera in the UK online store. I guess that it's discontinued.
I also had the 'argh!!!' reaction when they discontinued the 1.83GHz MBP. (Well they speed-bumped it, but you know what I mean)
You don't seem to be able to get large Milky Bars anymore either. Has anyone else noticed this? I haven't seen them in a while. Maybe it's just my imagination. And they stopped doing my favourite pasta sauce! Grrrrr.

How could you eat duck anyway? They are oh-so-fabulous.hana said:The other day, I went to the California Pizza Kitchen (a chain of california style (mish mash) eating establishments) and found that they have discontinued the Peking Duck Pizza
So here I am venting (and look forward to hearing from you purists about how you can't put peking duck on the pizza...honestly for me, it was just having duck and hoisin sauce)

you can still order their wings and ask for packets of hot sauce
A long long time ago Sara Lee made individually wrapped butter strusel coffee cakes that I didn't appreciate until they were gone
Also I miss those Micro Magic milk shakes from the 80s... remember those?

Well, the good news is Cinnamon Swirly is baaaaaaaaaack! They used to stop making cereal "cinnamon buns" 10 years ago. I am so happy they're back!
I kinda missed the old taste but they're quite similiar. Does anyone remember this?They recently cancelled Everwood and replaced it with another season of 7th Heaven, does that count? 7th Heaven should have died LONG ago...
Vanilla Coke lives!
I went out for lunch today at Rubio's Fresh Mexican Grill here in San Diego and when I went to get my drink...there it was, inbetween Barq's root beer and Minutemade Lemonade. Vanilla Coke!

I eat those all the time =) You can buy them anywhere here in Shanghai. But in Canada you have to go to Toronto to buy them. They're enormous, soft, and absolutely delicious. They're so sweet it scares you.
As for me I almost threw a fit yesterday when I went to Starbucks and found that the discontinued the Banana Mocha Frappucino.
Oh and years ago in my hometown there's this pizza chain called Topper's Pizza and they had a specialty pizza called Perogy Pizza which had bacon, onions and steamed potatoes on it. It was heaven. Then they discontinued it, and when I tried just ordering it as a normal pizza I saw that they had discontinued steamed potatoes as a topping.
