Which would you choose? Mine would be the Cadbury Marble bar from the 90s/00s but it would need to be the original recipe as Cadbury chocolate isn’t as good anymore

Cabana bars. I feel sorry for people too young to have experienced them.
Also the cheese spread that came in a jar

Heinz cream of celery soup.

This ^ Tried making some but it just wasn't as nice!

Also, Nutty bars, Topic and Bovril crisps (marmite flavour are similar but not exactly the same, imho). DH and I always reminisce about the last place we bought Bovril crisps - Fleet services, although can't recall the year.

Never heard of a Spira....

I also loved Marble, OP!

My choice would be Cadbury Flake Snow.

AchillesElbow · 18/04/2023 16:47

Heinz curried beans, the ones with raisins mixed in. I had them regularly on toast as a snack or solo dinner. So sad they’re gone.

The closest match I have managed is Campbells celery soup....

Spira

LickYouLikeACrispPacket · 18/04/2023 16:51

@Bongosbanjo you can still get topics. They sell them in b&m/home bargains and also in a lot of corner shops. They are so good!

mine would be M&S deltas and fuse bars. Oh and spiras. Used to get a hot chocolate from the school vending machine and suck it through a spira. Mmmm

Beanfeast. I think about how much I miss beanfeast often.

I looked it up, but didn't recognise it - when were they a thing?

Crunchymum · 18/04/2023 16:52

M&S chicken escalopes. They were always perfect.

Either topic or toastie toppers

I came here to say toast toppers too 😂 was literally thinking about them yesterday

VonWeasel · 18/04/2023 16:53

Lidl stopped doing their amazing dark chocolate and coconut cookies about a year or so ago. I am still sad as they were amazing. The other flavours are good but no way near as nice. Sad times.

Fresh Minty Eggs

Mmmm I loved Minty Eggs.

JesusMaryAndJosephAndTheWeeDon · 18/04/2023 16:54

Sainsbury's garlic rice (in a packet, add water and boil on the hob)
Pyramint

Heavensalongwayaway · 18/04/2023 16:54

Omg, yes to cabanas! Also Texan bars. I also loved m and s French style set yoghurts. This makes me feel old.

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 18/04/2023 16:55

It hasn't gone out of production but I can't get it in Ireland anymore, Philadelphia lactose-free cream cheese. I miss it, and I miss having a cream cheese and smoked salmon bagel without consequences.
