Swiss Miss Pudding Bars, 1982
It's hard to compete with Jell-O, a company known for making pudding. It's even harder to do so when that company has Bill Cosby hawking its frozen-pudding-on-a-stick product. Why even bother? Well, if you're a cocoa company with a few marionettes at your mercy, why the hell not?

RC Cola, also known as Royal Crown Cola, is a cola-flavored soft drink developed in 1905 by Claud A. Hatcher, a pharmacist in Columbus, Georgia, United States.

Oh man, RC Cola is considered "forgotten" now?:(

The part of Alabama I am from RC was the main cola back then. My Great Grand Father owned a little corner store, so he kept the family pumped with damn RC Cola!:lol: It wasn't until my family moved here to TN and we really couldn't find RC on the regular that we switched. Got on Pepsi then. Never was a Coke man.

Every now and then, I might see a RC in a store and might get one every now and then (I don't drink hardly any sodas anymore).
