I miss alot of pop that I think may have been unique to the Chicago area: Canfield's Cream Soda, Shasta, Green River (lemon-lime, very sweet and green), Mr Pibb (tasted like Dr Pepper), and the Jewel grocery store sold a generic version of canned pop in just about every flavor; black cherry was the best. I also miss Jay's potato chips, which I also think was a Chicago thing, and Dean's Frozen Yogurt.
I think I found out about it on this forum. Can't remember but I looked it up at Frito Lay.com and found out they were stocked over in my local wal mart.
They were around for about six months or so.
One of the Frito Lay distributors never stopped making them and I think they are out in the upper midwest.
