    Tags in stores were inexplicably and suddenly taken down for this product. Whenever I have a favorite breakfast bar, it always gets axed. Getting sick of it! Another one bites the dust...

    Sorry to you younger generation, but you guys missed out on all the good cereals. 1980s cereals were the absolute best.

    There was that local pizza delivery house from 20 years back, that also made burgers. Funny thing is 20 years later, having visited almost all of the EU and several countries in Asia I never tasted a burger like that :( 

    I also miss a certain brand of Swedish crackers.

    I have a feeling that if I ever find something like this I would become a fatty in no time :D

    Ahhhhhhhhhhh the 80's... when SUGAR was KING!! :lol 

    Well, portion control can help, he only ate 4 or 5 at a time, the box lasted 2-3 meals easy. :)

    There's 'miniature' and 'fun bites'..(probably more) the latter are usually the ones I give away at Halloween.

    Bot Shots. (Well, mostly... Series 2 was crapalicious for the most part and I see why they pulled the plug after losing most of what few fans the line had, but if they relaunched I'd still buy again.)

    Wham-It. An inflatable bowling-pin with a target on top for you to throw things at, meant as a stress reliever.

    Roadway Equalizer. Stress reliever, a little black box mounted on your dash where you push a button and it plays a machine-gun, missile or death-ray sound effect.

    Micro Machines.

    Canada Dry Bitter Lemon and Collins Mix mixers. Collins Mix was like a super-sour version of Sprite or 7up, pour into a glass and all you needed to add for a complete "____ Collins" mixed drink was the booze. My perfect refresher after a hard day in High School Hell...

    Totally forgot about the Smurf Berry Crunch cereal. LOVED IT. I do disagree about Pac-Man cereal though. That shit was nasty. :D  I got a box since I liked Pac-Man and hated it. I was forced to eat the whole box before we got a different kind. Wasn't a spoiled kid with multiple kinds of cereal at once time so I could eat that and avoid the other. Got a box, had to finish it before getting another. You can guarantee no more Pac-Man cereal was bought. Loved NERDS & GREMLINS cereal.

    I also LOVED C-3POs cereal. Have never found the cereal with that formula still in use. With most of these licensed cereals, the formulas were found in other brands.
