I don’t have a hugely sweet tooth but lately I’ve been really craving a Feast ice cream.
I’ve probably not eaten one since the 90’s btw!
The chocolate centre is about the third of the size than I remember, I wanted to feel very indulged with a naughty treat and it’s not even touched the sides!

Ooh shots! I'd forgotten those. Yum!

For the past couple of years I've really wanted raspberry ripple. I've found it in Iceland now but I'm slightly afraid to try it in case I'm disappointed. Also raspberry splits - why can't I find any? Always strawberry now.Sad

Nobbly bobblys are the best, hands down. I may have accidentally eaten a box of 8 of them in 3 days Blush

Solero?
I once used my paper round money to buy a magnum (took nearly all of my wages). I unwrapped it outside and promptly dropped it on the path.
Did I pick it up and eat it? Yes. Yes I did

Birds eye (I think) used to do potato fritters. They looked like smiley faces but without the smiley face! They tasted so much nicer than the smiley face things! Especially dipped on salad cream.

LilacWine yes I do and the advert with the red indians!

Anyone remember a big chocolate bar and each segment was a different flavour? Think one was rum? Can’t remember the name of the bar!

I would love a Wibbly Wobbly Wonder

Anyone remember Pacers? Green and white striped opal fruit- style (or whatever they are called nowadays) .

Am distressed by the Angel Delight posts - we were discussing it the other day so I have bought a packet of the banana flavour - would have preferred butterscotch but thought if I bought banana I could add slices of real banana, thus making it a “healthy option” Grin. Am I going to be disappointed?

And I used to like Mivvis - like Splits but bigger.

Ohmygodohmygodohmygod
My local ice cream van says it sells Zaps (or Zzapp!).
If i had any money on me at the time
I would have cheerfully exceeded my overdraft stocking up. I LOVED those things (caveat: i probably last had one in 1994).

Think the multi-centre chocolate referred to above was the Fry’s Five Centre. As an indicisive person, i’ve always whistfully wished they’d bring that one back.

Steala · 01/06/2018 17:14

I threw up every single time I had a Fry's soft centre. Without fail.

Full-size Magnums are just too big,

A Magnum could be the size of my (admittedly small) house and still not be too big.

Although I will never forgive them for stopping making the ones that were covered with chocolate that was like Caramac...

StealthPolarBear · 01/06/2018 22:17

I don't remember chocolate on the funny feet toes! I assume they're either strawberry or raspberry but very nice. It was at an English heritage place I had one

A Magnum could be the size of my (admittedly small) house and still not be too big.

They could be the size of Buckingham Palace and still not be big enough! My current favourites are raspberry, coconut, peanut butter, mint and almond.

OK, I admit it, I'm addicted and the only ones I don't like are espresso as I don't like coffee!

Davros · 03/06/2018 18:18

Oh yes, I remember Pacers
