Totino's
Note: Several products lack confirmed dates because Totino's doesn't publicly document most discontinuations.
Discontinued: 1963
Rose and Jim Totino launched their frozen pasta line in 1962 as their first venture beyond the restaurant business. They invested $50,000 into producing lasagna, spaghetti, and similar Italian meals for home freezers. These frozen pasta meals failed almost immediately.
High ingredient costs, slow production, and poor taste quality created a financial disaster that cost them roughly $150,000 within a year. The company nearly filed for bankruptcy.
This failure pushed the Totinos toward frozen pizza instead, which became their breakthrough product and eventually made them the top-selling frozen pizza brand by the 1970s.
Discontinued: 2018
Jeno's Crisp 'N Tasty Pizza entered the market in the late 1960s as a budget-friendly option priced around one dollar per pizza.
The round pizzas featured pepperoni cubes and a crispy crust that produced less grease than Totino's Party Pizzas.
Pillsbury acquired the Jeno's brand in 1985, bringing it under the same corporate umbrella as Totino's.
The company confirmed the frozen pizza discontinuation on Twitter. Devoted customers protested that Totino's Party Pizzas weren't equivalent replacements despite the company's claims that the products were nearly identical aside from shape.
Discontinued: Unknown (before 2020s)
Totino's Pizza Slices appeared sometime during the 1970s or 1980s as rectangular single servings sold in boxes of six.
The format resembled school cafeteria pizza and allowed consumers to eat one slice at a time rather than cooking an entire pizza.
The product vanished from store shelves without any official announcement or explanation.
Discontinued: 2007
Totino's Mexican Style Party Pizza combined taco-seasoned chicken and beef with green peppers, onions, and cheese on their standard pizza crust.
A guy named David Hlavac created a Facebook page campaigning for its return after the 2007 discontinuation, attracting over 700 followers. His effort succeeded.
General Mills brought the pizza back for a limited run in 2013 and surprised Hlavac with a mariachi band, a year's supply of pizza, and $500 in Box Tops for Education for his children's school.
Discontinued: 2014
Totino's Pizza Stuffers launched in 2011 as empanada-shaped pizza pockets larger than Pizza Rolls.
The product featured a soft golden crust and came in three flavors: Cheese, Pepperoni, and Combination.
Despite their popularity, the company eliminated them after just three years. Pizza Stuffers returned in 2020 after a six-year absence, but only in the Triple Cheese flavor initially.
Discontinued: Unknown
Totino's offered Hamburger Pizza Rolls (including Cheeseburger flavor) at some point in the brand's history, though no specific release or discontinuation dates exist in public records. These rolls had a filling of beef and reduced-fat cheddar cheese designed to evoke burger flavors.
Today, you can still get a similar pizza called Hamburger Pizza Party.
Discontinued: Unknown
Totino's Ham & Cheese Pizza Rolls existed as part of the brand's flavor rotation at one point, though the company never documented when production started or ended. The flavor has since vanished from store shelves.
Discontinued: 2020
Totino's Sausage Pizza Rolls were available for years as part of the standard Pizza Rolls lineup. The company confirmed via Twitter in late 2024 that they discontinued the flavor in 2020, likely as part of an effort to streamline their product offerings.
Discontinued: Unknown
Totino's Mini Snack Mix combined Pizza Rolls with other savory snacks in a single bag format.
The product likely appeared during the 2010s, though exact dates remain unclear.
Like other Rolls products, this one has since been axed as well.
