I'm so hungry reading this thread Grin

I really miss:

Walkers Sensations Slow Roasted Lamb and Moroccan Spices. So delicious. I really don't know why Walkers stopped making them Sad

Ready Salted Chip Sticks. Salt and Vinegar just aren't quite as nice.

Galaxy Truffles in the Celebrations tin. Replaced by Bounty Hmm I'm still not over it Grin

SuperLoveFuzz - YES! Bachelor's Mushroom & Wine pasta n sauce was the only flavour I liked. I miss it regularly.
They have brought out a new one recently tho which is almost as nice - Gorgonzola & Mushroom.

RE M&M brownies, I went to school next village from a McVities factory where they made M&M brownies, galaxy and jaffa muffins etc. You could buy them by the crate... and M&Ms by the jar from the baker attached to the factory. My gran gave them to us with ice cream every Easter and Christmas.

In P6/7 ish we did Burns nights once sponsored by McVities (they may have made mistakes or shortbread). As a thank you they delivered 2-3 crates of those Brownies and muffins.. School sold them as tuck for 50p each. Divine. Tiny wee school with only 40 of us so lasted a long time! I've seen them in WHSmith since..

AdultHumanFemale · 25/03/2018 23:57

Fru Grains cereal. I think they made a 'new' version of the original, but it was rubbish.

shouldnthavesaid · 25/03/2018 23:57

In fact googling - that wee factory was responsible for making those brownies for the entire country - that's why they tasted so good ! It shut down by 2003 or so who must be some other place doing it now.

goose1964 · 25/03/2018 23:58

Aztec bars, rum and raisin bar like a topic

RedWineAllMine · 26/03/2018 00:00

Bloody Lidl Baywood red wine. Loved it, now it's gone forever. Baywood if you read this....why?? 😥

RedWineAllMine · 26/03/2018 00:02

Oh just noticed food products... A liquid lunch counts as a food product surely?

jmh740 · 26/03/2018 00:07

Most of mine have already been mentioned.
Romantica icecream I loved it
Biscuit viennetta
Snow flake bar
Pot rice
I'm sure there was something made by baileys in a tall bottle a bit like a baileys milkshake

sanityisamyth · 26/03/2018 00:33

Gino Ginelli ice cream, especially the Tutti Fruity 😍😍😍

Ten years or so ago, Tesco used to do a Mexican cheese and bean wrap in the sandwich selection. It always was the first to sell out at lunch times so why did they stop making it?!

RhodaBorrocks · 26/03/2018 00:52

Cadburys Old Jamaica chocolate
Fry's Peppermint Cream

Probably more, but I thought about those yesterday.

RhodaBorrocks · 26/03/2018 00:53

Oh, and Pret's Tuna Niçoise sandwiches. They were the tits.

RhodaBorrocks · 26/03/2018 00:56

Finally, Seabrooks wasabi crisps.

Ok, I'm leaving this thread now as I'm getting hungry.
