M&S chicken baguette that you cooked in the packet - think probably in the early 90's.
Also M&S - they used to do biscuits with a chocolate topping and a buttery honeycomb base. I remember my dad often went to M&S on a Wednesday as it was his half day and he used to bring them back.
This is a recent one - I haven't seen multipacks of different flavoured nik naks recently, even in b&m and Poundland.
Dr Oetker's carbonara pizza.

Years ago... Marks & Spencer's did a Teletubbies range, I would LOVE it if they did the Tubby Toast again! Blush
It was like a flat croissant in the shape of a smiley face and was the most delicious thing. They also did Tubby Custard too.
