Tudor pickled onion crisps
Cabana bar (a bit like a Bounty with added cherries)
Riley's chocolate toffee rolls

Linda McCartney crispy-coated 'chicken' filets.
Practically lived on these 20 years ago - then they were gone Sad

Lots already said eg Pacers, Funny Feet (and Funny faces choc and vainlla)
also those mento type sweets in choc mint flavour. I saw some recently diff packaging similar concept tasted terrible.

M&S soft seeded roll with prawns and egg mayo.
Loved that so much.

I have seen Tutti Fruities recently.

Terry's Neapolitans.

I miss them so much Sad

TwoleftUggs · 04/02/2020 15:36

I’d love to see Piglets, and Potato Puffs again. I loved potato puffs cos you got loads in the packet, and piglets cos they were just sooo tasty.

mbosnz · 04/02/2020 15:37

Mine is one only other Kiwis of a certain age would get - frying saucers!

Oh God I miss those. . .

Texan Bar on behalf of my DH.
Pacers for me.

BammBamm · 04/02/2020 15:40

I saw your thread title and came on to say Cadbury's marble! I loved them. Cadbury's just isn't the same anymore though, I hardly ever buy it now.

lilgreen · 04/02/2020 15:41

Spangles!!!!!!

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 04/02/2020 15:41

Cream Foam - was the weirdest thing. Like a cross between cream soda and refreshers sweets - amazing!

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 04/02/2020 15:42

And also Ice Magic for ice cream toppings Smile

BronteSisters · 04/02/2020 15:43

Salt and vinegar discos that make your tongue so sore with just one packet.

BronteSisters · 04/02/2020 15:44

But really, I'd just like the proper size chocolate bars back. These days it's either giant ones or multipacks for a quid or one that's closer to a bloody fun size bar.

lilgreen · 04/02/2020 15:46

McDonald’s root beer.

dodobookends · 04/02/2020 15:47

M&S soft seeded roll with prawns and egg mayo OMG yes, I loved these!

@BronteSisters salt and vinegar discos still exist ?
Multi packs in Home Bargains etc

earlydoors42 · 04/02/2020 15:48

Golden oaties cereal

Goldengroveunleaving · 04/02/2020 15:49

Not the first to say it, but Ribena with no artificial sweeteners. Lilt likewise (it's many years since a full-sugar version of Lilt was available). I hardly ever bought either of them (my usual non-alcoholic drinks are either tea, without sugar, or water, so not one for sweet drinks at all usually) but sometimes nothing else hits the spot. And now the first thing I taste if I try either is the sweeteners - bleuuggghh!

Also, McDonald's toffee sundaes as a pp mentioned. Once again, bought them about twice a year, but absolutely loved them.

TheCakeCrusader · 04/02/2020 15:50

The original Kellogg’s Special K 😋

OlaEliza · 04/02/2020 15:51

@GingerbreadTeen you can get mozzarella pancakes now, in a blue box, and other ones (I can't remember what colour box) that might have tomato and pepperoni in too.

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 04/02/2020 15:52

The McRib.

coffeeagogo · 04/02/2020 15:54

M&S chicken tikka thighs - they were amazing (circa 1995) the crappy reconstituted fillets offered now are rubbish!

WendyMoiraAngelaDarling · 04/02/2020 15:54

Chocolate mint and/or chocolate orange angel delight.

EngagedAgain · 04/02/2020 15:54

BronteSisters, well yes, the other trouble with multi packs is too easy to scoff the lot! Yy to the Macdonald's toffee sundaes, delish 😋
