I cannot find 'cook at home' poppadums anywhere. Used to be in most supermarkets. I used to buy them all the time. I go to my local Indian shop for them sometimes but they've usually only got flavours I don't favour. The ready made ones aren't as nice and are usually in a load of plastic non-recylcable packaging which doesn't please me either.

I don't mean products that have been discontinued a long time ago, more so things that still exist but you just can't buy anywhere from recently!

Own brand coffee creamer is another one. Don't use it myself but I've heard people at work saying this often.

Don’t know if this will count as it’s not a year round product but galaxy enchanted eggs!! They are my go to after they ruined mini eggs and this year they are no where to be found.

Couldn’t find campbells condensed chicken soup anywhere , but did find batchelors condensed soup in home bargains . Didn’t even realise it was a different brand until I got it home.

Twining's Earl Grey tea. The bloody shelves are empty, had to buy Sainsbury's own. Well miffed.

in the last 6 months or so I seem to be struggling to find the capsule versions of Paracetamol and also the same for Ibuprofen. the powdery coating on the tablets makes me gag. I realise that this is probably what would be classed as a first world problem.

It isn’t on Amazon at the minute but I’ve only been checking for about a week, must have just missed it!

Also not in any local supermarkets or chemist, I can order from boots for nearly double the price so I’m waiting to see if it pops back up on Amazon (silly really as it’s only 2 quid more expensive at boots)

Simple brand soap was impossible to find for about 6 months but seems to be making a comeback.
