Discontinued foods you still think about

[bmrising]

Mine is McDonald's Breakfast Wrap & the Chicken Legend 🥲 still think about those a lot!

So pleased about all the Pacers comments! I loved them - even made a song up about them for car journeys:
walk another pace with a pacer, walk another pacer with a pace. Walk another pacer with a pacer, and I'll come rolling home!

Thought of another one:

circa 1994/5 Sainsburys sold a Chinese chicken sandwich: it was delicious. I always look for it if ever I’m buying a sandwich. 🥲

Exactly my thoughts.
A plain chipstich is a wonderful thing!
And don't get me started on fruit gums.
In a roll pack,thin things with dimples on top... Can never be beaten!

Does anyone remember the cauldron foods cheese and spinach pate?
It went around 2007 I think and I still miss it 💔

Findus cheese crispy pancakes

As others have said, drifters, spira, beef and mustard brannigans.
M&S used to do a sort of fish curry - called prawn and monkfish stew I think. Expensive and in a round foil tray. Heavy on the coriander - I loved it! There is something similar these days but it isn't half as good.

I've seen toffos in the last year or so but they were broken and tasted stale - unsure if that was the recipe or the fact I got them from a little newsagent.
I can't seem to find American handguns anymore. Is this due to everyone being vegan and halal? I loved the texture and the flavour of the white ones.

Another vote for Pacers.
Tiger Tots (mini liquorice all sorts in the same range as Jelly Tots & Dolly Mixtures, or were they Dolly Tots in the 70s?).
Cabana bars.
Topics.
McVitie’s Tunis Cake.
Those packet cake mixes that would separate in the oven into cake on the top & custard/sauce on the bottom.
Crawford’s Iced Biscuits.
Texan bars.
Burton’s Puffs and baked bean Piglets.

Perhaps this is the 70s childhood DNA’s epigenetic causation of my diabetes today lol!

I forgot the turd like 70s wonder candy that was the Nutty (in the brown cellophane wrapper). I’d bite off the peanuts for that glorious fudge middle.

US PayDay candy is a close second place substitute, but it’s not the same. And a once a year treat since the beetus diagnosis lol.

McDonalds Still Fanta and Big Breakfast.
Nestle Clusters cereal and
Mars planets

God there are some right good discontinued foods on here!!!

Spira and start ceral were amazing!

M&S used to go white chocolate freeze dried strawberries and they were delightful!

I used to love the cakes in the tin, god they were beautiful!

Agreed! I liked the pink one, think it was chicken perhaps curry?! Loved it 🥰

Pacers sweets
Tooty Fruities

M&s Deltas - little puffed up potato triangles of salty joy. They've been gone for over 20 years and I still miss them.

Fuse bar

Colin the caterpillar butterfly sweets! They could have knocked a good 5 years off my lifespan should they have continued.

Gregg's cheese and and ham pastry

I can't quite remember what it actually was, but it tasted like a freeze-dried strawberry bar coated in yogurt from Boots in the early 90s. Does anyone else remember them?

OMG yes!

M&S used to do a chicken tikka sandwich half pocket pitta type thing. That rocked my world.

Tooth Frootys still exist.

Hot crunch pudding! It was like an instant custard you made with boiling water, then a separate sachet of crunchy biscuits crumb type topping. Childhood nostalgia right there 😋

M &S used to do Thai prawn crackers that were amazing. I could scoff a whole big pack in about 5 minutes. Sadly disappeared about 25 years ago.

Lyons Showboats.

Mignons morceaux. Where did they go to?

They still sell topic bars

Shipham’s Bloater Paste 😋

Hot crunch pudding! It was like an instant custard you made with boiling water, then a separate sachet of crunchy biscuits crumb type topping. Childhood nostalgia right there 😋

I remember having this in the late 90's but can't remember when it disappeared.
