A couple of years ago, for Thanksgiving, the family was a little spread out so it was just the two of us and MIL.  So, we decided to have a smorgasbord of shitty-ish frozen foods.  We got some Hebrew National Bagel Dog Bites (pretty good btw), some taquitos, and some other shit.

I was very disappointed to find that the little Chun King mini eggrolls are no longer made.

Those would have been a perfect addition.

I killed so many of those things in high school. The box said 12, but there was always 14 or 15 in the box. So much better than Totinos Pizza Rolls.

A little googling found that Michelina's makes them now.

 

[UTCzech III 2,907]

Both of these:

Mrs. Baird's French Pastry

and cinnamon rolls, but the original, in the metal pan you stuck in the oven to heat up:

We have these in our snack machine at work. They’re a pretty good knock off version.

I dug around after my iniitial disbelief, and apparently Chun King was purchased/merged with Totinos and the pizza rolls resulted.

I wonder where you can find the Michelinas.

I don't remember any of the flavored pepsi's posted on here, must've been very short lived. 

[Viper 12,101]

I can't find a picture but Earthgrains/Rainbo used to make these carrot cake cupcakes that were awesome

[pacman 7,355]

One of the dip companies used to make a black bean dip when I was a kid. It was so, so good.

Came to post the Carnation Breakfast bars.  So fucking good.

Also reminded me of the Breakfast Squares...more cake-ish, but equally nostalgic.

[Jack Straw 2,954]

Mars candy bars

seen them in other countries but never here in the US anymore.

IIRC, they have baked potato appeal cuz they're made with potatoes and skins that are real.

I thought it was Milky Way in the US.

[TwiceHorn 31,438]

I think he's referring to the Mars Almond Bar.  Which is essentially a Milky Way with almonds on top of it, like an Almond Joy versus a Mounds.

I believe you are correct that what is known abroad as the Mars bar is a Milky Way here.

[CycleTex87 2,965]

Almond Joys have nuts, Mounds don’t. 

[Underdog 28,545]

Neither does Lance Armstrong. 

I thought Snickers had come out with a bar similar to the Mars bar?

I ate my weight in these during high school and college.  Big glass of whole milk with one of these broken up in it and one dunked in it and I was good to go every morning.

You can still get these, which are pretty damn good.

Have you tried the jalapeno cheddar version? Actually found them at the local Dollar Tree recently, pretty damn good. 

[Reagan1k 3,024]

csb/ I've always called this exact product a hamburger.  At some point in the 70's probably, we found ourselves with a major miscommunication at the hunting camp.  Everyone thought they were supposed to bring breakfast and no one brought anything else.  We probably had 12 packs of these and a bunch of powdered donuts.  One night someone in our group was bitching and saying all he wanted was a hamburger and another crusty old guy threw a pack of these Mrs. Baird's at him and said "here's your fucking hamburger".  csb/

I know - you had to be there.

Yep.  It was a breakfast staple many years with either milk or coffee.  I found something very similar to it years ago, lost track of it and can't remember the name of it. 

[threesheets 1,672]

These try but they're not even close to as good.
