What foods did you grow up with that are no longer around or are no longer Kosher?

The only thing that I can think of offhand is Mocha Mix, which, growing up OOT in the 90s, was THE Parve ice cream available. No idea if it's still around but I haven't seen it in years.

Elite Almah bubble gum and those liqueur-filled hard candies from either Elite or Tzeh-Deh, I forgot which.

Fizzies. They’re still available in specialty old-style catalogs like Vermont Country Store.

Atomic Fireballs are still around. Just not the large ones.

They still make cigarette gum, but they call them crayons and don't put in the powder. But they look exactly the same.

They also still make Tangy taffys, but they call them Laffy Taffys these days. I remember seeing atomic fireballs a couple of years ago, but I haven't seen them since.

The food I miss the most is Nougat Rolls, those were so good.

They still make them. They’re just like chew chews. But I don’t think they have a hechsher.

I miss dream cups. Reese’s cups don’t hold a candle to them.

Who remembers the J&J orange drinks that came in a small cardboard carton? I used to take them on every trip. Ahhh the memories!
