Starburst Joosters!

Burger King used to do an ice cream with Joosters in it. Better than any McFlurry flavour ever.

Original sunny D!

Wheat crunchies ?

newtb · 25/06/2022 01:20

Really ruthless crisps, varying degrees of chilli, but no added sugar. They came in bags coloured yellow, orange and red. Think the firm that made them were in Skem, used to get them in Booths.

Those smoky bacon crisps shaped like 3d pigs.
Wheat Crunchies.
Applause bars.
Cadburys Secret.

I thought Nestle made the Secret bar?

It was bloody lovely though!

Campinos! .. rainbow dust, fruit winders, push pops, bubble jugs, chocolate ciggies, brain lickers 🤪

Campinos got me through my GCSE revision. Loved those. They used to come in red and white or orange and white. Teeth are aching just remembering them.

Jolly Ranchers as well.

90s fromage frais were thick, creamy and cheesy. I can still remember the taste. Not like the watered down shit nowadays.

Iced shortie biscuits, cartoonies, ready salted chipsticks.

Loved ready salted chipsticks. Why on earth don’t they make them anymore when they still make the salt and vinegar ones!

3D Doritos.
Those yoghurts with sprinkles in the lid that you could tip in.
Fruit toffos.
Fruit polos.

Burtons Puffs, I liked Golden Wonder Sausage and Tomato too. Cabana bars, Spira bars, Pacer mints.

SandyWedges · 25/06/2022 06:54

Potato puffs

AmazingBouncingFerret · 25/06/2022 07:03

Hardly anyone else remembers this, I usually get blank looks when I mention them but salt and vinegar discos used to have a version that had “flava enhancer” in them. A little sachet of extra vinegary salt that you could shake into the packet.
they would make my lips turn blue. They were the best.

Vampirethriller · 25/06/2022 07:06

Worcester sauce twiglets.

MarianosOnHisWay · 25/06/2022 07:20

My memory is so bad. Does anyone remember the gum that has the strawberry goo in the middle? I thiink it came in a big red bag, all individually wrapped.

Or those clear syrupy drinks with all the little multicoloured blobs in it?

Bubbaloo gum!!!

Lex345 · 25/06/2022 07:23

These have already been mentioned but potato puffs and starburst joosters were both amazing.

StridTheKiller · 25/06/2022 08:45

I live for the day gino ginelli mint chocolate chip ice cream, Bobolli Pizza, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles pizza and Secret bars are relaunched. The 90s were the best for everything.
