Once the plants stopped making it and people thought it was worth a lot of money to collectors, they didn't drink what they had bought and saved it for years. Even to this day there's plenty of unopened cans out there. You can even get them on ebay.
Same also goes for M*A*S*H beer and JR beer, both made from the popularity of TV shows, but turned out to be pretty lousy beers. However, as with Billy Beer there's this recurring idea that the cans are worth a lot of money to collectors.
A lot of people started hording Twinkies when Hostess went out of business late last year. Now we have the same product from the company of "Hostess Brands". Indistinguishable from the old type of twinkie.
But that doesn't make twinkies worthless. It's a freaking twinky! Inherent worth right there.
Everything I needed to know about life I learned on Dagobah.
