Me first: in the early 80s, I remember the Vons supermarket chain had their own brand of sour cream dip for potato chips, one flavor that people I know loved was fresh pismo clam, it still had chunks of clam meat in there. One day it got yanked from the shelves and I’ve never seen it again.
More recently, about a decade ago, Trader Joe’s carried cheddar-and-horseradish potato chips, then one day they were gone.
I would love… LOVE… to dip those horseradish chips into that clam dip… sigh.
Oh, you just reminded me of one.
Back in the 90s and up until the early 00s, at diners I used to ask for a Dr Pepper and when the waitress said - “is Mr Pibb okay?”, I’d answer - “even better!”
Then they changed the formula and name to Pibb Xtra or some stupid thing like that.
