My brother and I continuously hope that Campbell's Home Cookin Tuscany-Style Minestrone or WWE Ice Cream Bars will somehow find their way back to supermarket shelves. 20 years later, and we are still waiting.
Lolas. It seems to have been a Toronto or southern Ontario regional thing. They were large ice wedges in different flavours contained in a tetrapak with foil lining. Great way to beat the heat. My favourite was grape. I couldn't find an image of the original ones.
Sailor Moon cards (Mother cut them all up when she was cross with me one day—that's how they'd punish me when I was small: Throw my favourite toy in the dumpster, break PlayStation game CDs into two in front of our faces). I never got over the Sailor Moon cards, though. Literally I got teary-eyed over them this morning. I think it's because it was not something you just bought on one go, you'd collect card by card, one by one, saved up allowance/chore-earnings to build a collection. It was as much a "prized possession" a 12-year-old could have. ???✨
Sour cream and onion Doritos. Like those NYC chips too all kunds,of crazy flavors. Tabasco popcorn is another and Royal Crown Sours. Wrapped in wax paper. From England i think!
