To be heartbroken at yet ANOTHER fave product being discontinued?

I have just discovered Thorntons have discontinued their strawberry fondant chocolate pigs, and I am quite frankly devastated. These have been my fave little treat since I was about 12, and now they are no more!

It's the latest in a long line of favourite products being discontinued - does anyone else get unreasonably irritated by this?! I'll start a list, feel free to add to it...

  • Thorntons strawberry fondant pigs (sob)
  • Benefit 'So Hooked on Carmella' perfume
  • Lush Aqua Mirabilis (my thighs will never be the same again)

M & S lamb lollipops, only sold during "summer". They were fabulous, used to buy them in bulk and put them in the freezer.

Aveda used to do giant glass bottles of a clear botanical moisturiser which was completely lovely. I really miss it.

Also was gutted when sports mixtures changed the black one from liquorice flavour to black currant

Black Magic (in Australia anyway, can't get it here anymore)
Lux used to make a neroli and ylang ylang body wash that I loved

Kettle crisps in Louisiana hot sauce flavour. Anybody remember those? They were lovely, really hot & spicy. They were around in the early 2000's

It was worse when Starburst amalgamated the Lemon and Lime sweets into one, and introduced the blackcurrant ones.

I still haven't got over the loss of the Mint Cracknel.

Haven’t RTFT but:

Cadbury’s Icebreaker, Pacers, Pyramint, Cadbury’s Silk bars, Terry’s strawberry cream yoghurt, Nero Lemon & Poppyseed muffins (their Sicilian lemon one is nowhere near as good), Wizard mousse, Breezers (no one ever remembers these), Cadbury’s Chunky (only out at Christmas, not the same as the one you get in the US), Cadbury Nut Crisp, Cherry 7up, ordinary 7 up without sweeteners, strawberry Poppets, mint Wispa.

Body Shop Fuzzy Peach & Dewberry fragranced stuff, ditto their ‘Calypso’ perfume. Boots used to have a collection that was sweet-themed; mint choc body scrub and a strawberry swirl moisturiser were particular favourites. Haven’t seen Anatomicals in the shops for ages (John Lewis used to have them).

Oh, I also loved Benefit Playstix, used to get loads of compliments on my skin and so easy and quick to use. Still not found another stick foundation that even comes close 🙁
