Oh bacon Wotsits were lovely as were the bbq beef.

I also miss the salt and vinegar and bacon quavers. And cheese quavers from the late 80s/ early 90s. Before they became the new and improved even cheesier abomination they are today!

Were mint yo-yos not just viscount biscuits? Lovely!

I loved these (local to Northern Ireland) although I think there was an English version too! And I would love pickled onion and spring onion bikers to make a come back!!

Cadbury's Spira
"Really Ruthless" crisps. Szechuan were the absolute highlight of the range.

BakedBeans47 · 25/03/2018 15:14

Ready salted chipsticks. I don’t like salt and vinegar :( last time I was in France the LeClerc sold big bags of own brand ones that were about 50c, I stocked up

DwangelaForever · 25/03/2018 15:15

@Carouselfish book a flight to Belfast we still have mint crisp 😍 - there's also golden crisp, tiffin and Turkish delight and it's the old Cadbury's recipe as it's from the factory in the Republic of Ireland that makes them!

Purplerain101 · 25/03/2018 15:16

@dwanangela jealous you can still get the Cadbury Tiffin bars. They were so yummy!

Melon and Ginger yoghurt, blackcurrant ski yougurt. Loads of other yoghurt flavours!

Supermarkets had dozens of flavours in the late 1970s and early 80s and they changed regularly. Now it's the same 4 everywhere

liloleme · 25/03/2018 15:19

Purplerain Sainsbury's sell Cadbury's tiffin.

Amanduh · 25/03/2018 15:19

Walkers lamb and mint crisps (are out again but as ltd edition only)
Mcdonalds chocolate sundae with the warm fudge sauce - don’t know why they stopped them in the uk :( with others on the sara lee double choc gateau!

FilthyforFirth · 25/03/2018 15:29
