Anyone remember Alligator Soup? It was packet soup, tomato with little pasta alligator shapes in it. Used to love it as a child, haven't seen it in many years though.

Really miss TK Cream Soda, although that only disappeared recently. It didn't taste like cream soda from anywhere else (the others taste terrible to me).
