Or she could get a whole tub from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Lemonhead-150ct-Tub-Individually-Wrapped/dp/B009D8ZE06/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406828785&sr=8-1&keywords=lemonheads !


Thanks. I used to be able to get them at 5 Below but recently they only had ones called Appleheads. Appalling. ;(

I had seen them on Amazon but I can't imagine eating them in bulk.


What is with the proliferation of green apple flavored everything? Who likes this? I am still annoyed that the green Skittles are now apple instead of lime.

So many people want Flex shampoo to come back. I loved it, and many guys I knew loved it. It reminded me of a type of sandalwood.

Suave used to have a line called Professionals, and one of them had the loveliest soft cedar fragrance. Long gone.

I miss the Spanish soap made by Maja, in the fragrance that was called Promesa de Amor. It reminded me of mimosa and cedar. They came out with a totally different reformulation of their fragrances at some point, blech.

I miss Crabtree & Evelyn's Gardenia line.

I make my own, but they're not the same without that thin layer of ice that you could slide off with your tongue.


EXACTLY! That was an integral part of the experience. I ate that off first, then got to the pudding part. *sigh*

They must've given you the shredded chicken, but they still offer the chunks!

Cover Girl did a line with christie Brinkley for about a year. I think it was make-up targeted to women 50+. They had the absolute best under-eye concealer I've ever used. And I've tried all the fancy expensive ones. Anyone 45+ find one they like?

Soft n Dri will help hide...when you're nervous inside! That was my deodorant in high school in 1985! Love that smell.

Anyone remember Faberge Organics shampoo? Ahhhh...that stuff was amazing with such a great scent. I swear it was a volumizer well ahead of its time. It was perfect for the big hair hairstyles of the 80s. Fab edge was discontinued, then I switched to Halsa marigold for blonde hair. Part of a whole line specifically for your hair color. Again, the scent! Gone by 1989. Never have found a favorite since.

And, Carnation Breakfast Bars. The first, ahead of their time, breakfast bar. The delicious, dry and crumbly goodness.




OMG, I looooooooved those. I was never much of a breakfast eater but these were the best! I still like the instant breakfast, but only chocolate. Which is available at Costco.

If anyone else on here is also mourning -- any suggestions for substitutions for either?


Also Clinique's Dramatically Different lotion. It's been 15 years and still I mourn it.


The yellow stuff for your face? I think they still make that.


Nope, they absolutely do not still make it. I have badgered cosmetic counter people all over the eastern seaboard. Nada. Nowhere.


Too bad you went all over the Eastern seaboard when all you had to do was go online to Clinique or Sephora or Nordstrom or...anywhere. I see it in every department store, too, all the time. Are you talking about an old formulation? This lotion is literally everywhere, all the time, on every seaboard.

It's a new formulation - notice the "+" added to the label. They no longer make the original kind - very sad for many of us.

The original Febreeze scent circa 2000 or so. I found an old bottle while moving and it's much better than what they now make.
