What do you still buy that you're convinced no one else still does?

[SomewhereInbetween1]

Title may have been a slight exaggeration, but is there anything you continue to purchase ( be it groceries, cleaning products, home bits etc) that is maybe seen as outdated, useless, old fashioned or just generally unliked by the masses , that you continue to buy?

Mine is Fisherman's Friend. I love them but have never found anyone else who still buys them!

Corned beef

Also buy liquid furniture polish in a bottle, rather than beeswax. Hate spray polish with a vengeance.

Does lipcote still sting when you brush it on.

Steak Canadians. Really thin slices of 'meat' that you grilled and put in a sandwich!! Looked like donner meat!!

@TeaAddict235
Can I ask where you buy your kohlrabi from? I've searched everywhere and can't find it here. I can only get it when I go home 😭

Yes @DobbyTheHouseElk 😬

@MarkinTime bless you. We buy it in Germany. DH goes bonkers and buys more than we can cook in soups, casseroles etc. I feel like a lobster buying 6 in one go when we get to the tills. I don't get the love unfortunately. But it's nostalgic for him. Where are you?

@MarkinTime excellent. It used to dry my lips out so much I stopped using it. But it was the dogs do da’s for keeping lipstick on.

Hold on @MarkinTime , you must be my soul sista!

Evaporated milk! Amazing
Brillo pads- every kitchen should have them!
Lions midget gems! Food of the gods.

Now if only I could find proper American hard gums.....

Just remembered Shippam's Salmon and Shrimp paste - it was THE thing to have on small squares of bread at kids' parties when I was young. It was delicious but dread to think what it was made of!!

I'm in the UK at the moment @TeaAddict235. Will be going home for good next year, so will be able to eat delicious kohlrabi till I pop 😁

Lidl might have American hard gums on their American week @TeaAddict235
I'm pretty sure I've seen them in there on my home visits. I don't know if they're the proper ones though.

I buy kohlrabi in the Birmingham open market. It's great to live in such a multi-cultural area. Goats legs,anyone?
That steak canadians - is that like new york strip I buy in N.C.?
Back to my secret passion, tho..shippams salmon & shrimp paste sandwiches.Glorious!

Honestly - is washing powder in a cardboard box all that rare? Hopefully more people will convert back when they cotton on to the amount of plastic they are consuming by choosing liquid or liquitabs.

I remove my makeup with soap (Dove) and warm water and a flannel. Works beautifully and mildly exfoliates at the same time.

Stardrops cleaner, flaked rice to make rice pudding, custard powder, Cherry Blossom shoe polish, Bisto (not granules), vegetables with mud on them, sherry, Turkish Delight and ginger wine at Christmas.

@DobbyTheHouseElk
I swear if a nuclear bomb went off, you would find my lips with unsmudged lippy with a coating of lipcote on them 😂

Oh! I see MilkTrayLimeBarrel's just mentioned my secret pasion
I buy it at Morries.

@SpinneyHill please tell me where you can still buy crispy pancakes ❤️❤️

Royster's T-bone steak crisps.

Tinned fruit salad - so bad it’s good! Staple of my childhood (total treat, especially if you got a cherry!)

A lot of people i know use washing liquid or capsules for their machines so I do think washing powder is seen as a bit naff and old fashioned

Joyful little hippo
I love bar soap
My cheapie is imperial leather
When I push the boat out I see what tk max have in

Oh god I love green ginger wine as well. It's lovely with loads of ice and a twist of lime. I suppose it is old-fashioned, I hadn't really thought about it before! Definitely a Christmas thing.

Lions midget gems.. the real deal not the fake ones
My aunties treat 2oz after weigh in at weight watchers
She weighed 9 st ringing wet

You’ve reminded me to take home some povidona
I use it on insect bites
In canaries at the moment

Green ginger wine at Christmas,Marmite any time, Powdered washing powder and Fabulous Pink Camay (3 bars for 1.00.) I'm just an old fashioned gal
