Surge
Kick
Pepsi Blue
Dunka Roos
Orbitz It was a drink with little jelly ***** floating in it
Super size Fries from wendys
Warheads
Getting Krispy creme donuts soon as there made

Candy cigerrettes were freaking awesome. I don't blame them for me picking up the nasty habit when I was 14 though.

9+ months nicotene free by the way

Not sure if they were a local candy but Charleston Chews were made in the city I grew up in. I hadn't seen them for many years but saw them on the shelf in a convenience store today - of course I bought a couple. Tasted as good as I remembered.

I actually liked New Coke.

Do they still make Moon Pies? I have'nt seen them in a long time. I'm sure they are still sold in the south. Harder to find in the north. I've had Army buddies talk about how they could'nt wait to go home and have a moon pie and a RC cola.

Here are some sites I read about in the paper:
www.farawayfoods.com
www.hometownfavorites.com
www.vermontcountrystore.com
These places have hard to get and regional delicacies.

Does anyone know where one can have breaded tenderloin patties shipped to the
south? (That doesen't cost $5 a piece)
