Has anything you usually buy recently just disappeared from shops?

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.

I can get them from our local butchers but they aren't pennies anymore. They are huge and sold by the weight. I used to occasionally get marrow bones from supermarkets, but they are much more expensive now and harder to get hold of.

Some pet shops sell dried (real) bones - usually independent shops - for around £1.50-£2 (near me in Hampshire). Farm shops sometimes have them as well - dried and frozen.

I tried 6 different supermarkets and couldn't find brandy snaps or baskets. My DP thinks I've made their existence up as he's never heard of them 😂

If you are close visit when Hull fair is on. Plenty of brandy snaps.

Chicken Bovril
Bisto gravy powder in the large box
Pea shoots (though fortunately I can start growing some soon)
