5. Dunkaroos

Remember the good old days of Dunkaroos, those delightful cookies with creamy icing dip? If you’re in Canada, you might miss them even more!

Sadly, Dunkaroos were discontinued in the United States in 2012 due to some reasons, and they didn’t stick around in Canada much longer, meeting a similar fate in 2017.
