Pepsi Blue. I feel I'm in the minority on that issue.
I'm with you on that.... josta too
SLUM: I thought they still had surge. I worked for Coke when that was introduced. That shit would burn your innards. They had a party for the release, with contests. One contest was for a TV and DVD, where you had to slam a can the fastest. I tried twice, and I couldn't feel my tongue after the second attempt.
TV = Firefly, Futurama, AHH! Real Monsters, Boom Town
Drinks = SURGE (mix half mellow yellow, half sprite, and some orange Hi-C together, you get orange Surge), Jolt, Kick
Toys = Pogs
-Firefly
-Arch Deluxe (I hate me some DcMonalds, but that was a damn good sandwich)
-Carnival
-MUTANT LEAGUE ANYTHING (I'll even settle for just the cartoon!)
Theirs one thing I'd really like back more then any other snack, but I forgot the name years ago. Does anyone remember a type of sucker that was flat, clear, and had a different color pictures of monsters/aliens that you could see inside them? Best sucker ever! but I only know of one place that sold them and afterwords never saw them again
True Calling --ok, I'm probably the only one in the world for this, but I totally FELL IN LOVE with it for the one season it was on TV, and then it ended and went away when it was just getting SO GOOD.
Reboot--Because, they never QUITE ended it. Just got really really close. But I lack the closure I need. Megabyte was about to mess some more shit up, and I'm still dying to know what happens.
Sesame Street (BEFORE it got all cracked out)--I'm talking the classics. I mean, maybe it's because I almost never watch it anymore, but what little I catch always seems to be so cracked-out and just not the same. Has anyone seen this "Elmo's World" deal?? Is it just me, or is it tailored for the new ADD generation?
And other that... childhood in general.
You know, seeing the world in that way... where candy was the most exciting thing ever and even crappy TV shows could make your whole life. Yeah. Good times.
P.S. I agree with Vanilla Coke. Mmmmmm. Cherry good too.

Jolt, you can still buy, but I think it's limited to only certain markets. It came back around here about 3 or so years ago.
I'm with you on the cigarette candy, but obviously the huggy feely types had to get rid of the cool shit
(Hopefully the Digg-effect still isn't in play)
I didn't know they stopped Oreo-O's! Bastages. No wonder I can't find shit in the cereal aisle anymore!
I completely forgot about these though:
