You can still get crispy pancakes! I occasionally get the cheese ones and feel absolutely filthy Grin

Birds eye potato fritters Smile

AyeAyeFishyPie · 25/03/2018 18:09

Where do I start?
Cadbury Spira and Fuse bars
Cadbury Dairy Milk with orange - it was so nice
Cadbury Dairy Milk in foil - chocolate is unrecognisable now
Secret bars
Wotsit Waffles (they might have been called wafflers?!)

I feel sad now!

Tesco own brand ready salted chip sticks. They were fucking delicious. I would do anything to have them again!

KimberlyS2 · 25/03/2018 18:11

First thing I thought of when I saw the thread was cartoonies so will have to look out for those.

Think most have already been said;

Romantica (still available in Portugal I think)
Chicken Dinosaurs
Knorr Stir It Up - Mexican Fajita & Jamaican Jerk
Blue Raspberry Panda Pop
Salt & Vinegar Quavers
Maryland Big & Chunky Choc Chunk and Flapjack.

Got really excited to see Trios back in Asda but my tastes must of changed because I really didn’t like them.

ALongHardWinter · 25/03/2018 19:17

I didn't know there was ever such a thing as Salt and Vinegar Quavers or Beef Doritos!

SargeantAngua · 25/03/2018 19:18

Did anyone else have powdered orange juice as a kid? Wasn't very nice but still, haven't seen it for years.

Kellogg Just Right used to be really nice. Probably had sugar in...
There was a Ready Brek with sort of muesli mixed in it that was lovely too.

As lots of pp have said, Cadbury's chocolate and lots of the old bars.

skippykips · 25/03/2018 19:20

Cheesy snaps!
Turkey Twizzlers (screw you Jamie)

Bippitybopityboo · 25/03/2018 19:24

EarlyNinetiesDecor · 25/03/2018 19:25

Shout out for McVities Abbey Crunch biscuits! They were amazing with a glass of cold milk.

And I miss a Muller Crunch Corner that had smooth strawberry yoghurt, and chocolate and orange coloured crunchy balls.

I think Force still exists in health food shops.

ALongHardWinter · 25/03/2018 19:36

SargeantAngua I remember having powdered orange juice! It was in the mid 70s,and I'm pretty sure it was called 'Apeel' (or Apeal,not entirely sure!). We thought it was very sophisticated at the time,but looking back,I think it was pretty disgusting.

JustDanceAddict · 25/03/2018 19:37

Sorry, not Force, was thinking of a different one.
