McChicken Premieres. Its been years and I'm still cross they were discontinued. Legends are just not the same!!!

Oinks 10p crisps I don't know what these were but it made me think of Piglets –essentially the bubble that you find in a normal crisp, with tiny feet, snout and ears, bacon flavour.

We had a multipack of Fry's Orange Creme in the house only a couple of weeks ago. DH brought it in so unfortunately I can't give any clues about its provenance other than Smalltown, UK.
Today I fancy bringing back Blobs, which for the youngsters were boiled sweets in different flavours that came in packs about the same size and shape as Toffos. Apple pear and banana ones were my favourite, though I did occasionally dally with strawberry and cream or toffee apple.

The mini pot noodles that were aimed at kids.The containers were smaller and had smaller noodles which didn't slip off your fork.

Oinks were good, they were the hollow pig shaped snacks iirc. I just looked up creamola foam because I never heard of it, it seems its from back in the day and the description of it is yuk!

I dont know if anyone remembers these but in asda when i was a kid you could buy this salmon paste that came in a pale pink colour sort of polony wrapper. Needed to be kept in the fridge. I loved it but it got discontinued and ive never found a salmon paste i liked since.
