Old foods that you loved that no longer exist.

[Soubriquet]

I was remembering back when I was kid, my Nan would pick us up from school, and take us back to her house where we would have a small tea.

One thing we loved was tidgy puds and gravy. I was gutted when they stopped doing tidgy puds

Yes, sosmix! I also bought some from that store, a few years ago. My taste buds had changed though and althought it was the same, it didn't taste as good to me as it did in 1989!

Creamola rice - similar to semolina but bright yellow

Desperate Dan chew bars - with the black sugar bits in

Gino ginelli tutti fruitti ice cream

Chewing gum in stick form

Biscuits- Royal Scot, Cafe Noir, Lincoln.
Fruit pies I think made by Lyons. The apricot one in particular.
Toast Toppers
Vesta curries.

Not really a good as such but I miss getting fish and chips with loads of salt and vinegar wrapped in actual newspaper. The combination of smells was epic.

Hubba bubba soda drink in a can, toffee and mallow eggs and chocolate tools sold loose for something like 3/5p each

The Co-op used to make a milk biscuit, they were lovely, also miss Royal Scot biscuits.

Angel delight pudding whip.

Oh my goodness yes. They were DELICIOUS

Like a previous poster, mine are all chocolatey ones:

Terry's Neapolitans

Mingles

Something I can't remember the name of made by Marabou. I discovered them in the 1980s at the same time as Daim bars (which I absolutely love) but they had a white softer centre.

Milk and Plain sandwich bars. I can't remember who used to make them but basically they were three thin layers of chocolate in a sandwich: either plain on both outside layers and milk in the middle, or the other way round. I loved them both but haven't seen them since the 1970s.

This. This was great.

It seems hard to get nice 'orange creme' anything these days. Or orange cream or orange ice cream.

Anyone missing the cheesey niknaks... Cheetos crunchy are the same things! That properly sweaty feet cheese!

@walnutmarzipan that brought back memories (dairy milk). I remember space raiders looking and tasting completely different too (pickled onion flavour). Boost bars (not sure they still exist).

@HappySonHappyMum thanks for the heads up. I will try them. Whether they will live up to my memory remains to be seen!
I used to like it spread thickly on the white crust of a loaf with a glass of milk. I can also remember getting home from school and mum had made me a chocolate spread sandwich with a milky coffee and cuddling up to her watching Peyton Place! Giving my age away now😂

United chocolate biscuit bars. Yum yum

My two are children's yoghurts...favourite came in pots similar size to Petit Filous and the pots were solid colours (yellow/pink/red I think). Tasted amazing, can still taste them now.

Also ones in larger pots, with monster faces on them - think each flavour was a different monster. Was almost never allowed these but always wanted them.

Think one of these was called munch bunch???

Aztec bars Cadburys I think.

My mum used to by a block of chocolate mousse and lemon mousse from Bejam. She sliced it the same as a block of ice cream. Reading other posts maybe it was supposed to thaw a little. We loved it straight out of the freezer

Heinz toast toppers, bacon and mushroom or chicken and mushroom.
Burnt my tongue most times I had them, but OMG they were delicious.

Heinz should rethink their decision.Says they have been discontinued since 2015. I can still see them and taste them when I close my eyes.

They are! Widely!! Pm me if you'd like me to post you some!!

Also a Mushroom and Wine pasta n sauce fan here. And the old style cheese and leek one which was much cheesier than the newer version.

YES!!!!!!! This! And wasnt it low fat too, or they did a low fat version - can't believe someone else loved it too 😁
