There was a short boom of all different kinds of Fassbrause here in Germany. Fassbrause is a carbonated drink, that gets its carbonation from brewing, is made of grain malt and fruits and non-alcoholic (literally barrel-fizz).
It was then followed by a short trend of every rapper and streamer making their own iced tea and now the trend still going on is energy drinks.
I miss the selection of Fassbrause. It was not to sweet, malty and fruity, just perfect. Now I have to look for what feels like the two last brands still producing.
They introduced two new peanut flip flavours. One was Mexican and the other was oriental or something. They kept the Mexican one and ditched the superior oriental for some reason. Still thinking about them from time to time.
A few years ago, Morningstar used to have a vegetarian rib patty. Once I realized its potential as a vegetarian McRib, I bought a pack. It was delicious. I bought another pack.
And then it was gone from shelves in every store that had it.
Yes!! Riblets! I haven’t seen them anywhere in years and I miss them so much :(
They’re (kinda) back!! I haven’t tried them yet, but I will.
In Germany we had a joghurt back in the 90s called “Frufo” (a portmanteau of Frucht (fruit) and UFO), which was basically just a strawberry joghurt in a flat, round package with a hole in the middle for a small toy. They even released pralines, which were filled with the same joghurt and were pure delish, especially cold out of the fridge on a hot summer day.
Everywhere I go, people my age miss that. It just needs the question “Hey, remember Frufo?” to send them to memory lane :)
For me it’s the miracoli pasta sets we could buy here when I was a kid. I have plenty fond memories of that stuff when I was little, but as it turns out they don’t make them any more because it’s more profitable to sell the Sauce alone… not to mention the other flavors like the cheese and herb farfalle pasta they used to have :(
But they actually do! Or I had luck and got a limited edition from kaufland just yesterday. You should go and check out if they are still available :)
😳 i shop at Kaufland frequently, I’ll definitely have a thorough look next time was sure they had only the sauce in jars.
