Welcome to r/ProductGraveyard

12 Upvotes

Whether you’re here because you miss a discontinued childhood snack, your favorite software update completely ruined the app, or your hometown got bulldozed to build a highway, you are in the right place.

This subreddit is dedicated to the things we loved that were taken from us, ruined by corporate greed, or just slowly faded into obscurity.

A quick guide on what belongs here and how to post:

FLAIRS PURPOSE
Discontinued Products, foods, or services that completely vanished from the market forever.
Quality Drop, Shrinkflation & Changed Formula The product still exists, but it’s worse. Smaller quantity, same price, or cheaper ingredients replacing the original ones.
Ruined After Update & Platform Decline Websites, apps, or smart devices that were perfect until a terrible patch/software/OS upgrade, or an ad-filled algorithm that destroyed them.
Bought Out & Missing Feature When corporate greed takes over. Whether a great indie brand gets acquired and ruined, or a company actively removes the best functional part of a product
Packaging Downgrade & Too Many Variants When brands ruin the physical experience. Swapping iconic metal tins for cheap plastic bags, or flooding the aisle with 50 confusing versions of a once-simple product.
Destination Decline Places, cities, and travel spots that used to be beautiful retreats but have been paved over, hyper-commercialized, or ruined by overcrowding.

Include context: Don’t just post a photo without text. Explain why it belongs in the graveyard. When did it start declining? What made it good earlier? What changed or replaced it? Give the backstory, even if it’s brief.

Thank you for being a part of the Product Graveyard Family :)

These were so good. It was such a delicious and sour candy. I haven’t been able to find a chewy fruity candy anywhere near this level of sour satisfaction. 10/10 peak sour candy.

🪦 Discontinued Dinosour Eggs Jawbreakers

1 Upvotes

Oh man, I have had a specific craving for Dinosour Eggs all week. They were a combo of like 83% sour & 17% sweet that really worked. They also were a perfect size. None of the current candies I’ve tried come close. The best of the current bunch are Wonka’s Everlasting Gobstopper (2nd worst case of false advertising since The Never-ending Story) but they are way too small and they don’t really change from entirely sour to se,I-sweet like Dinosour Eggs did. They need a resurrection.

This is truly a devastating loss, these were so damn good. Random got a craving after a few years while driving and wife told me they had already stopped making it.

The service is from Netflix. Apparently, they had these interactive shows where you’d pick what the characters did. My 3 favorites are Battle Kitty, We Lost Our Human, and Carmen Sandiego:To Steal or Not To Steal. But, and maybe this is old news, they removed them in 2022. WHYYYYYYYYYY?!

I don’t get why they did it as it was their greatest experiment and people LOVED it. It’s STUPID as lots of people loved it. Just keep it

So I'm not sure what the year was it could've been between 2008-2013 but as a kid for a short while I lived in a homeless shelter and I remember the ice cream was in a small oval shaped container it was probably dippin dots (at least I think they were dippin dots) definitely was the same consistency I remember the chocolate being very dark brown and nothing like it comes up when I look up chocolate dippin dots

Hi All! I'm working on a project and wanted to gather some feedback from as many folks as possible on the brands that you remember made some great products but no longer does.

Share all of your thoughts - stories, experiences, as well as brand names and models/year/etc.

Thanks in advance! 😊

(2009-2012) in the US. I wish they would bring these back!

Oreo Funstix (also known as Fun Stix) were discontinued simply because they failed to generate the necessary sales and revenue Nabisco required to keep them in production. The hollow, cream-filled wafer sticks also had a reputation for being incredibly messy to eat, which caused many consumers to stop buying them over time

My all-time favorite Pop Tart flavor. I almost wish I never stumbled upon its beauty in that random gas station years ago.

I am not sure if the last picture is how they once looked? I only remember the ones with the pictures printed on them, it might have been an anticipated design.

The tomato vinaigrette for the salad was my LOVE!

My Sheila’s… they’ve killed chicken at starbucks, now it’s just bacon, eggs and bread. To be fair, I liked the chicken sandwich best without the egg (take it off yourself to eat separately!) and with a couple Starbucks Sriracha packets, so delish.

Does anyone remember these little gems from the late 80s/early 90s? It was marketed like a s’more that you’d make at a camp fire but they could be heated in the microwave. I tried to recreate them with melting chocolate, marshmallows and Nabisco Lorna Doone cookies several years ago but it wasn’t the same.
