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.

Re. Surcare capsules - I use the Surcare liquid (Waitrose or Tesco stock it).

Amazon and eBay sometimes stock these disappearing things but because they know you can't get them, they are usually expensive.

Thank yes I do too, but it’s so messy. The capsules have just gone kaput !

Coleman's cheese sauce powder.

Tesco dropped it a while ago but Asda still had it, haven't seen it recently though

Sainsburys have a cheese sauce powder it's quite nice 👍🏻

Campbells condensed mushroom soup, managed to find it in Home Bargains the other week after it disappeared from all supermarkets

Yes, thanks for the Home Bargains info, I'll have a look

I don't buy this often so not sure how long it has been gone but I went to buy my DS a tin of Sainsbury's baked beans with veggie sausages in. There were none. Had to buy the Heinz version which was £2!

Simple brand roll-on deodorant. Have used it for years as it's unscented and cannot find it anywhere

I think it's discontinued but mum do an unscented one

I know. Its the basis of so many recipes

@Theraffarian is the Bachelor's one any good?

I don’t think I’ve tried that one, but I have tried so many different types 🤢

theskyispurple · 15/02/2024 21:03

@thisiswheretheseagullfliesaway thank you thank you thank you!! Ordered Grin

ParanoidGynodroid · 15/02/2024 21:04

Own brand peppermint tea. Twinings costs 4x as much.

Anchovies

Barley.

I always buy bite and sting cream which has 1% hydrocortisone, just for the hydrocortisone…. Aaaand a quick look on Asda tells me it’s out of stock 😞

I live in the middle of nowhere so it may well be just a local issue (as it usually is here) but I can't get frozen hash browns for love nor money. I remember the bags getting low on lidl in December and realising that I thought it was just me buying a bag a week as could count the bags each week. I took the last one before Christmas and they haven't restocked! I keep checking. I even drove the ten miles to the next lidls and found none. It's crazy but I may trek to the city for the four hour round trip just to find them.

darksideofhull · 15/02/2024 21:07

Dark choc bounty and Mintola :(

The aldi cheesy hash browns are INSANELY good.

I saw these in sainsburys at the weekend.

Dove powder scent deodorant stick. You can get the spray but it's not effective for me. Ordered roll ons from amazon but preferred the sticks and obviously ££ ordering from amazon Sad

Tescos thin bleach (the watery stuff) in a large white plastic bottle. Used to cost about 50p a go.

I found this in Morrisons - it's their Saver range and comes in a 2L bottle. Sainsbury's occasionally does it - it's called House 24/7.

PollywithaP · 15/02/2024 21:11

Chicken tonight Spanish Chicken Sauce and Campbells condensed tomato soup.

Kendodd · 15/02/2024 21:11

Topic bars.
So delicious but now gone.

sagalooshoe · 15/02/2024 21:12

Crawfords salt and vinegar savouries.

I love them, they are my holy grail. I am always searching, never finding. The unrequited crisp love is driving me loopy 😢

If anyone knows where they are in a shop please PM me
