In the UK you can get shaped frozen potato products, but none of them are coloured and the most popular one is McCain's Smileys, which are shaped as smiley faces. Coloured snacks belong in the chips ( called crisps in the UK) not fries ( called chips in the UK) aisle, but even those have never taken off in the UK, because we did once have blue potato snacks; apart from vegetables ones made out of beetroots, etc.

I used to work at Blockbuster, and I remember we got this product called Coke Black, which was basically Coke mixed with coffee. We only had it in stock for a year, and we literally only sold 3 cans during that time.

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! The funky French fries segment reminded me of the oven cooked curly fries I ate so much back in the 90s. I just googled and found they still make those..!! Yummy..!!

Celery jello was intended to make gelatin salads with.

These were popular during the earlier 1800s or so, and consisted of various foods suspended in ordinary unflavored gelatin.

These were made in copper gelatin molds and served at elaborate feasts held by the rich

I feel like there’s more products that bombed horribly upon arrival so much so that you can make multiple videos

Celery jello... ffs celery tastes like water.

They need to bring back colored ketchup I miss it so much

[Thetechnolady]

funky fries was the BEST. the cool blue one with the colorful ketchup at the time?? top tier

Baby food was one of my grandmother's staples when she had an upset stomach. Fruit baby food isn't bad at all; I remember that from when my niece was a baby and I fed her. Blueberry brickle was one of her favorites and I gotta say, it was pretty damn tasty. lol

Colgate probably would have done ok on the tv dinners if they had just created a new name to put on them. Lots of companies have sub-brands, like Proctor and Gamble who make Colgate's main competitor- Crest.

Jello was a standard in my family. About 10 years ago my mom made lime jello with green olives (with pimentos) and pearl onions. We were all expected to take a serving. My ex-brother in-law looked up after his first bite and told my mom that he didn’t think it was a keeper. We all cringed since we knew better than to say anything. She never made it again. Imagine if she’d had some vegetable flavored jello. Still wouldn’t have been a keeper.

I'd personally say that new coke was the biggest fail out of all of these entries

[ran_d_d]

I loved purple ketchup. Should totally bring it back.

Was that Fred the Dunkin Donuts Baker in the Reddi-Bacon ad? Northeast MA representin

6:27 "You betta put some water on that damn shit!!!" Lol
