Lost Xmas food

[lookluv]

Xmas nostalgia has been bad this weekend - why will someone not bring back mignons morceaux, cheese moments, worcester sauce crisps, cream and cheesy niknaks and those massive KP bignuts

It really is not Xmas without them!

I think that’s because people stock up on them when they come in. When I bought mine (1 tin) other people were grabbing them quickly, (I saw one guy get 4!) and when I looked again the shelf was empty!

You can still get all of these apart from the weekend chocolate box

I’ve just opened the box of M&S big mix I had carefully stashed away thanks to this thread!
so far they are delicious and very reminiscent of old style Roses.

The after eight selection box has a couple that are similar !

Loved these! The people who owned the company that made Phileas Fogg lived in our village, they sold out at some point in the 90s and I've never eaten the delicious garlicy nuggets since😭

I have been trying to remember what these were called for months! Loved them, but they just disappeared. :-(

OK I just googled M&S Big Mix and this came up....
it's
a
THOUSAND
POUNDS

I mean, it does have a limited-edition tea towel in, so probably totally worth it

Oh, the mignons morceaux! But also Phileas Fogg Corn Chips!

I love some of the old school food but, i must admit that i dont recognise any of what you have listed.
Whereabouts do you live in the Country? I'm in London.

I’ve been hunting for cheese footballs without success 😞

Ohhh - i used to love these too X

Coffee creams and a packet of Sobranie, dad’s standard Christmas present from my aunt, a cigarette to match your dress! Bloody awful fags, actually, but they looked incredibly sophisticated.

Oh i have to have these.

Proper Christmas cake. Homemade with thick hard white icing over marzipan.

Is the only answer

@Chiefangel and @pandagirl93 and other fellow Mingles missers- After Eight have this new collection out which fills the gap! (Photo will load)

Mingles chocolates💔

Yes! Bloody twiglets! They used to be the best thing ever and now they’re disappointing flavourless sticks of misery. It’s an absolute national disgrace and I don’t know why people are not rioting.

These haven’t gone away, can get them at Tesco etc

I still miss Toffo's now, it was the banana one - perfection!

Good lord they were SO garlicky! 😋

Cheese footballs and babycham/snowballs

Thank you! I’ve not seen them in my local sainsburys or Tesco so I’ll try a bigger branch.

Weirdly, saw dark choc brazils at a service station Waitrose yesterday. If have a Waitrose nearby?

Cheesy balls at tesco, sell them all year and a huge bag at Christmas... :-)
