oh god the rissoles!

Also, Mackintosh Mint Cracknel and the Dairy Milk chocolate bars that had about 8 chocolates fused together in.

My dad used to love mint crack bell. And Terry’s burnt almonds and Sainsbury’s breakfast sausage.

M&S Deltas and their ChocCorn.

I think as soon as they find out I love something they stop making it.

yes, yes yes, M&S Deltas, the absolute best potato snack

Mini hoola hoops. They used to come in a cube shaped packet. Starburst joosters. Iceland used to sell jelly baby ice lollies which were amazing.

Yes the pickled onion flavour mini hula hoops. I was addicted at one point and must have ate a thousand packs 🤣
Spira is another for me
Ben shaws cream soda ( not food but a drink)
Real toffee crumble- the old school stuff that used to get weighed out at the paper shop, not that brand you can buy it in bags from home bargains etc. it’s just not the same!

PleaseAndThankYou12 · 13/06/2025 20:37

M&S cream cheese and ham pinwheels. They had healing powers.

Definitely true. Almost a grown up Lunchable 🤣
M & S also discontinued their cheese filled crepes which were a kind of little crispy pillow with a cheddar “paste” inside. Still feel aggrieved tbh.

Runnyyolkplease · 13/06/2025 20:44

Cheese flavour snaps - they discontinued them but kept the tomato flavour ones 😭

original milky ways before they changed the filling to be white - flyte bar filled the gap for a while but then got discontinued too!

Worcester sauce Twiglets
Pickled onion Discos
Cadbury Fuse bars

Also this hasn’t been discontinued but it’s pretty much impossible to find Caerphilly cheese now.

Maverick bars
Flyte bars
Definitely drifter bars!
Spicy tomato wheat crunchies (or are they still a thing!)

Ezesonfire · 13/06/2025 20:52

Worcestershire sauce twiglets.

It was a bonus if you got a really strong bag too, the dust at the bottom of it was lush and took a layer of membrane from the inside of your mouth. Heaven.
