OK...
Danish Go Rounds-Made by Kellogg's up until 1976. They were the sister product to Pop-Tarts. Basiclly they were tubes of Pop-Tart dough, filled with Pop-Tart filling. Then wound into an oval shape and slathered with white Pop-Tart frosting. Came packed 4 to a box. I could EASILY scarf down a box in one sitting. Kellogg's claims that the product was discontinued because the product tended to break in transportation.

Movies, you say...?
I haven't heard of a Beach Movie being made in years, surely discontinued...they were extremely popular in late-50s Eisenhower America - the 'innocent' age as some call it...
Plots (if any) usually centered around a, er...beach, and normally starred Frankie Avalon & Annette Funicello (ask your mother. or possibly grandmother...!!)

I remember Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers ice cream bars from the late 80s-early 90s. And Jetsons and Batman cereals from around that same time. (not together of course.)
And another discontinued product: what about those brownies that had bites already taken out of them? I remember buying those a whole lot during that time. I think they were called Chewy Chewy Chompers or something...... :-\\
Hope I helped a little! :)

Marathon Bar
Funny Face Drink Mix
The King from Burger King. When I was a kid the king was a cartoon character then was replaced by a real person.
How about the characters from McDonalds that aren't used anymore, Mayor McCheese and those Fry Guys that look like mops.
