Defintely agree with the peanut butter KitKats!! And I really miss garlic butter savoury rice. I think they were Batchelors.

AbigailS try Soap and Glory for good lipstick. They smell amazing, aren't filled with bloody glitter and they moisturise really well.

peanut butter KitKats!?!? You're shitting me.

cherrypieplum · 17/04/2012 15:16

That they existed or have gone? They were heaven!

Bodyshop Green tomatoes shower gel.

Also just in the last month Asda have stopped stocking this lemon yogurt in the individual pot sizes

Benefit's True Fiction foundation. I don't like the feeling of foundation on my skin and then prefer something very light so when I went to get some a few days before my wedding as the last lot had pretty much dried up I almost had a meltdown when I found out it had been discontinued.

I ended up finding the Armani Face Fabric foundation as a result though, which I think might be even better. However, it took me until late night shopping on the Thursday before my Saturday wedding to find something that worked for me, so it was all a bit frantic!

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 17/04/2012 15:28

Sorry, that they existed. I've never heard of them. How did they pass me by?

Are they at all like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups?

I might try CyberCandy or one of those online 'nostalgia' sweetshops.

M & S garlic and herb crisps. They came in a large bag in light blue and they were delicious. A few weeks after I discovered them they vanished Sad.

IDontWantToBeFatAnymore · 17/04/2012 15:38

I remember options magazine. Also real and me that have gone and SHE has gone recently Shock.

I miss pacers too and nearly passed out with delight when a discovered a shop near my inlaws sells chewing nuts. Not quite as a remember as a kid but they will do as once in a while treat.

Thorntons chocolate flavoured toffee - not the chocolate coated dreck - actual chocolate toffee. I haven't seen it for years and it was so lovely.

Body shop rassoul mud soap - made dh smell very nice (better than the coal tar soap he uses now).

Chocolate cigarettes.

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 17/04/2012 16:02

Oh, chocolate cigarettes!

Actually, even better, chocolate cigars ? the ones wrapped in purple paper.

LadyClarice They were much, much better! Less artificial tasting!

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 17/04/2012 16:16

Now steady on! I LOVE Reese's. But am definitely going to try to find peanut KitKats.

cherrypieplum · 17/04/2012 16:18

My apologies! But seriously, seriously good. It's such a swine as a) they aren't about any more and b)I'm craving them like mad but shouldn't be eating peanut butter as 28 weeks pregnant.

lynniep · 17/04/2012 16:54

going back to the subject of lush/cosmetics to go - we used to get this body wash called 'happy hippy'. Twas grapefruit scented and rather refreshing. the smell lingered too (whilst I love original source smells - they seem to disappear as soon as you rinse)

CrystalTits · 17/04/2012 16:54

Diet Coke Vanilla (I've even resorted to adding vanilla extract to regular diet coke, but it's shite)

lynniep · 17/04/2012 16:54

OMG that macaroni cheese pie was FAB. You've taken me straight back to my student days Goldrill

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 17/04/2012 16:56

lynniep, they still have that on the Lush website.

WandaDoff · 17/04/2012 17:12

We still have macaroni cheese pies in Greggs in Glasgow.

Do they not have them in other places? Shock

redlac · 17/04/2012 17:15

Have maccy pies in greggs in Stirling - obviously the Scoitish arm of greggs know how popular they are
