I know they have been gone a long time but I still to this day miss the Secret bar. It was just so yummy. No modern chocolate bar has even come close to it.

Fun size snickers used to come in a papery wrapper. I'm convinced they tasted better cos they didn't sweat in the plastic.

There was a Cadbury bar that had just little balls of biscuit in the chocolate. Man they were addictive...

Haven't been able to find small single serving tubs of Ben and Jerrys ice cream anywhere this summer, have had to buy the large tubs instead, problem with those is I just cant stop once I start into one of those

Also McCain Southern Fries seem to have disappeared. Replaced everywhere with 'French Fries' which in my opinion are much inferior

While I'm not a fan, my GF loves em. Gets them in Tesco and Dunnes Maynooth no problem. All the big Tesco seem to have them, only ever a facing or two so can be hard to spot.

TEXAN bars, I remember as a small kid being bought one by my dad and the shop keeper saying I wasn't old enough for a Texan bar and shop keeper then suggested a 5 pence pink panther bar (which were also a favourite of mine in the past).

But I stuck with my Texan choice and I left the shop feeling dead impressed with myself and my "mature choice" in confectionary ! but I'd imagine if I had one now they'd probably be horrible.

J.R Icepops were the best ever, followed by fat frogs , I still hanker after a JR , also I have never forgiven HB for changing the taste and size of the loop the loop about 10 yrs ago , they remain second rate still , why the hell do they do this !

I think it was the backlash to artificial colours and flavourings. Certainly the lime part was never as green again once they used natural colourings!!

Loop the Loops are a mere shadow of their former selves unfortunately...

My Dad worked for Urney which became HB Chocolates. We had millions of Two and Two bars, Catch Bars, Rovals (the Irish Equivalent of Rolos) and Beanos (The irish equivalent of Smarties)

Two and Two and Mint Catch were always my favourites. HB chocolates closed in 1979!!

Hi ballinasloex, we generally ask that people don't bump threads that haven't been posted in for more than 6 months. As there is a very similar, but active, thread running in After Hours right now (http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057382563), I'm going to lock this thread.
