Food you don’t often see anymore

[BigJanette]

What dishes did you used to eat, but don’t really see around anymore?

I’ve just remembered a M&S ready meal I ate quite regularly in my student days (this would’ve been in the mid 90s) but haven’t seen since.
Smoked haddock kedgeree.
Anyone else remember it?
I used to make it every so often, but haven’t done in years.
I think it’s time to remedy that and get it back on the menu.

Any easy recipes welcome!

You’ve just brought back a really vivid memory. My mum used to buy the long spaghetti. I’d forgotten all about the blue paper - can still see it now, lying on the kitchen counter ready to go in the pan on Spag Bol night.

Jusrol - pack of 18- Morrisons

Chocolate Olivers
Barmouth Biscuits

BaraBrithBread

Chocolate Garibaldis

M&S shortcrust pastry minced beef roll. If we went on a shopping trip to the nearest city, we always had that for tea. I don't eat meat now but reminisce with DH as it was a staple of both our childhoods.

There's a James Martin Spud u Like at the Trafford Centre.

Vol au vents had their heyday in the 70s

Suet pastry - delicious on a meat and potato pie.
DP says corned beef hash. Actually corned beef is one I remember, didn't particularly like and wouldn't choose to eat now. I can taste it if I think about it.

Spud U Like!

Cauldron's tofu - it's all oddly shaped Tofoo now. Also, The Vegetarian Butcher's Little Willies. I loved them! 😁

My late DH loved them.

Kunzle cakes!

OMG yes! The best biscuits ever.
Why did they stop making them?

I remember this as well. Though DM would bought it in Asda. Did a chicken one too.

I know this isn’t really the question but still to this day I daydream about these items which have been discontinued

secret chocolate bar
golden cup chocolate bar
drifter
potato puffs
ready salted chipsticks

I’ve started many petitions and written various sternly worded emails to these companies but never had a reply.

I often think about Golden cups the large bars were a "treat " growing up so I'd savour it.

Bath Olivers

Unfortunately Burton's potato puff's will never be made again as the machinery used was scrapped.
Cheese and tomato and beef were my favourites.

Spam fritters....used to have them at school dinners, recall them being a bit greasy...

A bit???

Remember pushing the fork down on the batter and watching cooking oil piss out of them.🤮

They still say these but only 2 in a packet now!!

@Mickeychampionwhatgoodami , I don't think I ever actually tasted it, but I remember the grease.

My favourite school dinner. Full of salty, greasy loveliness.

Does anyone remember the boxes of small chocolate cakes, covered in chocolate, that Cadbury used to make? From what I remember, there were 5 or 6 different ones in a box - a sort of cake selection box. And their chocolate covered sponge and Swiss Rolls? I haven't seen those for years.
