Products they stopped that need to come back

[TreeSturgeon]

Many years ago Marks & Spencer sold a cheese and apple sandwich. It was grated cheese mixed with some kind of mayonnaise and with chunks of apple. It was amazing. Then it stopped and it never returned.

Would I be unreasonable to email their head office to ask for them to reintroduce it?

You can still get bearnaise sauce in a jar in French supermarkets, but not Maille. Get a friend to bring you some back from France!

Original Sosmix. Disappeared when we banned GM products. We used to take it camping, with the kids, it made really tasty veggie sausages.

You can buy Sosmix from one online retailer but it isn’t at all the same.

It's Bendicks white chocolate mints for me!

I'm a chocolate fiend and dislike all other forms of sweets. Except Joosters! They definitely need to reappear. :-)

I remember those, they were lush. DD had a Saturday job in a Coop and they were incorrectly priced as (say) 20p instead of £2, and were also on a BOGOF. We were eating them for weeks.

Strawberry Callipo - available elsewhere just not in uk

tandoori flavour crisps, came in a purple packet but cannot remember which brand.

M and S smoked ham and chicken sandwich, loved that

I used to love Lux soap flakes!

I Also loved the M&S cheese and celery sandwich. I don't often buy prepackaged sandwiches but when I do, it's that that I want.

I hrtft but nestle clusters were my all time favourite, they discontinued around 2021 and they got me through two hyperemesis pregnancies and I miss them.

also yes to Spira’s, elite chocolate bar

Worcestershire sauce Walker's are back! Can't help with the beer though.

Oh and solero shots, now I have to settle for a callipo and it’s not the same!

Cream cheese Nik Naks
Wickers prawn cocktail crisps
Pacers
Tesco bean and cheese wrap

Aqua Manda oatmeal soap. It was basically gritty soap, but it worked a treat on teenage skin. No idea why that popped into my head.

I’m sure this is still on the go but pricey.
Lidl does a pretty good dupe called Suddenly Cotton Blue for about £5.99

I didn't realise Cherry Garcia had gone. Maybe it's just a UK thing. My favourite ice cream in the world is Ben and Jerry's Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz which you used to be able to get here bit now only overseas. We always make a beeline for B&J when in the US

I have these in my freezer, the crispy pancake is still very much a thing!

They still do!

M&S Sandwiches again! Loved their poached salmon and watercress ones and also the fresh crab - haven't seen these for years. Also loved their Duchesse potatoes - lovely and such a pain to make yourself - chicken cordon bleu before they messed about with it and added smoky bacon!

Nivea soap - used it for years and it has suddenly disappeared. You used to be able to buy Nivea shampoo and conditioner in Spain but that has sadly gone too.

Lyons Lemon and Orange cup cakes - delicious - and McVitie's Mallows - so much nicer than today's version.

Nobody has said Cadbury's Milk Tray bar - my favourite ever choc bar - guess it would be very expensive to produce these days!

Tesco Raspberry Rapture Cheesecake!

Yes! I used to really like this one!

Entemann's carrot cake was divine.

Does anyone remember a tarragon mayonnaise? I can’t recall who made it but I used to buy it in Tescos in the early 2000’s. It was amazing!

Andrew’s Liver Salts was great for indigestion and mildly laxative

The original yellow metanium cream

its the only cream that worked on really sore bottoms

Weight watchers tinned spaghetti. Its the only tinned spaghetti I would eat but it was lovely, discontinued a couple years ago.
That and Haywards strong pickled onions, haven't found one comparable since, farmers markets can get close but they often put chillies in which changes the flavour. Even tried making my own and they just aren't the same.
