Products I Miss...

I've been inspired by the New York Times. Seems they are really embracing the whole 'interact with your readers' thing. Some choice comments... I gotta start reading a newspaper that isn't pandering to morons...PRODUCTS you MISS? Jesus H. Christ. See my reader's comments below.

"Tidal Burst Gatorade, it was turqoius and tasted way better then any other Gatorade, bring it back."

"Bring back some decent spelling and grammar. I miss it." - YR


"The walkman - you could record what you wanted on a cassette deck rather than running up against the IP restrictions that make iPods rather awkward when you have multiple media sources. "

"Yeah, I totally miss carrying around a 3 pound brick which contained a hissy tape"- YR

Coffee for under a buck. Good coffee for any price (only been to 5 places in my life that can make a decent cappucino.)
Good radio

"Coffee for under a buck is not a product. You are lamenting the increase of prices over time. Read an economics textbook. Why not say you miss free coffee from the magical coffee river? You are a retard" - YR

"Cheez-It Party Mix… the kind with cheezits, pretzels, and those little puffy rice balls… so good but so hard to find anymore! I know of ONE grocery store where I live that sells it and sometimes I’ll do all my shopping there just so I can buy some. "

"Whoops. Sorry, Melissa". - YR

"A stereo with a turn table, dual tape deck, AND cd player. This is almost impossible to find. "

"Yeah. Totally. Also one with an 8-track player would rule. Sweet jesus...what is the matter with you people?" -YR

I wish we all lived in a society that never evolved. That would be perfect.

I miss unicorns. But you'll probably be all raining on my parade and say I'm not seeing unicorns any more because of that whole virginity thing. To that I say, I miss duels. And I also miss you, Ben. One of these days I'll have to be making it out to that magical neutral wonderland of yours.

Cheez-it is not the superior party mix. As with mac and cheese, it is best not to go with a brand name on low-end products. Go generic, and you won't be disappointed. I believe my party mix of choice is $.25 for a single serving bag. Mmm....

I don't know - - think I might have to disagree with you on that one, M. No one's mac-and-cheese is better than Kraft’s. I'm all about the powdered cheese.

I don't think other companies pay their chemists enough to come up with such orangey goodness. You have to admit that the powder concoction makes all the difference.
