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

Piglets - they were bacon flavoured crisps but shaped as tiny 3D pigs

Fuse bar. Why of why did that have to go? But if it has to have modern Dairy Milk I'll choose the return of Symington's vanilla tablecream.

Cadbury Secret

There was some kind of processed pork chop around in the 2000’s that I LOVED, I’ve searched all over but I can’t figure out what it is so I assume they no longer make them😭 It was a reddish-brown colour, shaped sort of like a foot and had indents in the top to make it look like it had been grilled. Probably Birdseye or similar, it was the food of the gods.

These definitely still exist but they are really rare. Like snow leopards.

Show quote history

I had a friend who works in grocery buying enquire and the company stopped making them.

Either Vesta paella or giant 10p wham bars with fizzy bits.

Actually it wasn’t Cadbury. Secret bar in the gold wrapper.

Huhsaywhat · 18/04/2023 17:45

Tooty Frootie sweets were also a favourite of mine.

I came here to say that tooty frooties must be due a vegan revival.

Also, Ben and Jerry's Jamaica me Crazy sorbet 🤤

Phileas Fogg Mignon Morceaux - my most favourite snack ever, gone 😭

I came on to say exactly this! I have never ever found anything that comes close.

(The tortilla chips were lovely too- properly chilli flavoured- not like the Doritos-esque versions they came out with when they 're-launched' a few years back (briefly).

Walkers Sensations Mexican Fiery Chipotle crisps. I was obsessed

Oh my god YES I remember those, they were amazing!

Also - Peperami Cheesy (like a peperami but made of hard processed spicy cheese). They weren’t around for long and I’ve never met a single person who remembers them.

Also - Bernard Matthews Turkey burgers that had a layer of cheese under the breadcrumbs. My mum used to get them from Bejam in the 80s.

Ribena... original recipe not the horrible one now only available.

Sorry but I need a second one- coconut boosts from Cadbury

McDonald’s Breakfast Wrap. It disappeared from the menu when they re-opened after COVID and has never returned. 😢😢

Were they the ones like mini garlic bread slices? If so YES I loved those
