Like a hulk of a St. Bernard that thinks it’s a tiny shih tzu, awesome things sometimes plop into our laps—a beautiful sunset, a stumbled upon TV show, a video of a guinea pig-sized goat frolicking with a friend.
Sometimes, these things are taken from us too soon—the night snuffing the beautiful pinks of dusk, early cancellation of a favorite television series, someone committing the ultimate crime against cute by pulling a mini-goat video from the interwebs.
Once these things are gone, they’re usually gone for good. But sometimes they get a second chance.
Case in point— French Toast Crunch!
The passionate fans of the once defunct breakfast cereal recently got the ultimate treat at the bottom of the box when General Mills re-released the sugary delight.
Yet, this doesn’t seem fair. Why do only those who bow at the altar of French Toast Crunchism get to have all the fun? There are tons of other extinct nibbles and sip-friendly sodas of yesteryear we wish would be re-released. So, here is our list of 24 snacks and drinks we hope return to stores.

1. Taco Bell's Bellbeefer
Taco Bell’s version of a Sloppy Joe was included in the restaurant’s original 1962 menu, but most likely due to its “think outside the bun” campaign in the ’90s, the beloved item was nixed from the franchise.
2. Reese's Elvis Peanut Butter & Banana Creme Cups
This layered cup was filled with hunka-hunka-burning love: banana and peanut butter in a chocolate Reese’s cup. It was released in tribute to Elvis Presley and is pretty difficult to come by since its discontinuation.
3. Clearly Canadian
Discontinued before the new millennium, the company is currently doing a crowd-sourcing campaign to bring it back. EVERYONE EMPTY YOUR POCKETS IMMEDIATELY. I loved this stuff!
4. Doritos 3D
In the mid-2000s, Frito Lay released these air-filled nuggets of heaven and discontinued them just a few years later, robbing the world of a true delicacy. The now-defunct snack still has a passionate fan base. In fact, one Littlethings.com staffer claims, “The only reason they failed was because they were ahead of their time. They were the Sir Isaac Newton of junk food.”
6. Nabisco Swiss Cheese Crackers
Popular in the ’80s, Nabisco discontinued their Swiss cheese-flavored crackers, which upset many. There’s even a Facebook page called “Bring Back Nabisco Swiss Cheese Crackers!” dedicated to its revival.
7. Shark Bites
Shark Bites, which were advertised as a healthy fruit snack, were actually just sugary shark-shaped gummies. They didn’t make it into the new millennium because of this farce, but they were still delicious.
8. Jell-O 1-2-3
Introduced in 1969 and discontinued in 1996, this ULTIMATE JELLO SUPREME PACKAGE OF DELIGHT was separated into three distinct textural layers: a creamy top, a mousse-like middle, and plain Jello bottom.
9. Keebler Magic Middles
Cherished in the ’80s and 90s, these chocolate-filled short bread cookies no longer exist, but people seem hopeful for their triumphant return: a Facebook page and an Amazon page is ready and waiting for the cookie’s re-launch.
10. Oreo O's
The delicious cereal that married the natural pairing of cookies and milk, Oreo O’s, was sadly discontinued in 2007…except in South Korea.
11. PB Crisps
Killed by the man (i.e. Planters) in 1995, the product has a devoted following that wants this delicious treat to come back to our collective mouth holes.
12. Mickey's Parade
Pulled from the hands of children all over the world in the early 2000s, you can’t even find these puppies on eBay anymore.
13. Four Loko
Though the brand and name still technically exists, it’s not the same caffeinated booze American came to love in 2005. The formula changed vastly in 2014.
14. Hershey's Bar None
Bar None’s original slogan claimed it could “tame the chocolate beasty,” but only until 1997 when it was discontinued. You can, however, still buy it in Mexico.
15. McDonald's McDLT
The McDLT was pretty brilliant. It was a deconstructed quarter-pound burger with the lettuce, tomato, and mayo all served in separate parts of a double-sided polystyrene container to “Keep the hot side hot, and the cool side cool.” That way you could avoid hot lettuce and tomato oiled down by burger grease and mayo. The item was discontinued some time in the ’90s.
