    Was that the one that was called Pepsi Light? I remember it being out in the late 70s/early 80s. In fact, I remember being at a place called Kalt's after a night class my second year of college and having one with a friend while watching one of the early round games of the US Hockey team's run to the gold.

    Frozen Zero's were God's gift to us YMCA campers. We'd go into the snack bar when we arrived and stuff a bunch in the freezer and devour them at the end of the day.

    I'm shocked Burger King's cheesy tots wasn't on this list.

    Let me also add Jolt Cola. That stuff was awesome.

    McRib has no right being on this list.

    Every product on that list, aside from Cappuccino Trident, was something I loved while growing up. I was a sucker for gimmick products.

    Nah, the Lemon Pepsi I'm referring to was in the late 90's, early 00's.

    Lemon Pepsi rocked, especially the diet version. As compared to Coke with Lemon, which tasted like ammonia. Pepsi Blue also tasted like ammonia. (Sorry, schiezainc.)

    Burger King still has cheesy tots, at least the one by me.

    Had sticky toffee pudding on vacation in Ireland last year and was blown away by it. I wish I'd known Haagen-Daaz had it.

    One thing which I'm having a hard time finding around here is Jif's Peanut Butter with Honey. I usually buy a couple jars when I go back home.

    That was actually my first thought when I saw the thread title.

    Other than the kitten.

    Do they still sell Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper? A warrior's drink.

    I got hooked on Lemon Ice Gatorade, partly because it was awesome, partly because everyone on the basketball team thought it was water in a Gatorade bottle so they wouldn't steal it.
     
  12. I loved the Pepsi that was clear. Can't think of what it was called for the life for me.
