Or just can't get for whatever reason.

Currently really fancying the ww chicken & wedges, it was in a nice tomato sauce but I also really miss the slimming world tomato and bean soup that came in a pouch.

I realise these are both diet foods and tomato based, maybe I should just go and make a tomato salad 😂

Way back in the Seventies M&S used to sell mallows on biscuits with an apricot jam filling, they were lush.

Oh and Cafe Noir biscuits, haven't seen those in years. My favourite.

Sara Lee Pecan Danish Pastry - it was available in the late 80s early 90s. It was the most amazing dessert.

M&S released their own version but neither has been seen since I was about 15/16 (1996).

Came on to say this!

Proper twiglets. The ones that came in a box and were about three times as long as these burnt offerings you get now.

It's the tangy (Worcester sauce) flavour twiglets I miss. They were on a different level.

I loved brannigans crisps!! Devastated!

Not that long ago, Home Bargains sold them. I loved them also.

Mammyloveswine · 20/08/2023 17:46

@Startyabastard can't even find any out of date packs on eBay 😂

TheThingIsYeah · 20/08/2023 17:56

Those big yogurt pots you can buy, well Aldi used to do an apple and cinnamon flavour one that was something else. Discontinued about 10 years ago.

And more recently Lidl used to sell little individually wrapped swirls that were like pannatone bread. Perfect for breakfast. They don't do them anymore, the pain au chocolats are so dry in comparison.

You can get tinned cream surely? Here in NZ it's a food staple as they make an abomination of a dip by mixing tinned cream with packet onion soup.

It's absolutely revolting but it appears everywhere and as it's called 'Kiwi Dip' people look at you like you've burned the flag in front of them if you say you don't like it.
