I'm in the Republic of Ireland and it's in all the main supermarkets @Exitstrategist

This was only ever meant to be limited edition, but they brought out a champagne flavoured Crunchie to celebrate the millennium which I loved and still remember even after all these years.

In terms of staple items though I think I’m gonna go for Campinos as I was thinking about them only last night. Although it was a toss up between them, pizza flavoured cheesestrings and Bisc&.

Leontine · 05/02/2020 20:44

Oh and I also really miss the non cheese flavours of Wotsits and Quavers.

Plus technically Campinos are still available in some parts of Europe....argh so much good stuff to choose from!

Cadbury's Snowflake bars

Mignons morceaux - garlicky snacks that were a little bit of heaven when paired with a glass of chilled white wine.

They used to do these cheesy potato things covered in breadcrumbs. I'm pretty sure they were called Cheesy Feet. I'd love to have them again to see if they're as good as my childhood tastebuds remember...

@MsBH I remember the sweets my tiny little corner shop used to mix the colours together we used to get loads for very little expense .Also mojos there were loads of different flavours again shop mixed them and charged a penny for 4 we would go in on a Saturday with our pocket money the little old lady must have really loved us kids cos we never once heard her complain about counting out the sweets

JammyGem · 05/02/2020 21:01

Also, wagamama's Surrendra Curry. No idea why they discontinued it, it was amazing. I asked them if it would ever come back and they said never say never, but I don't think it is. I've not even found a decent recipe to replicate it at home.

Proper non veg percy pigs, the veg ones are vile

Proper lucosade before they messed it up with sweetners

No way!!! Checking flights to Ireland ASAP!!!

Casiloco · 05/02/2020 21:11

One that still exists but you rarely see it - Dark chocolate Bounty bars

And one I don't know if they still produce - M&S used to stock little orange and dark chocolate desserts - the orange was slightly tart (almost like marmalade). Yummy.

And yes, dark chocolate does feature in both, of course.

Guccidowntothesocks · 05/02/2020 21:15

Campino sweets!

mrshousty · 05/02/2020 21:18
