    Is it my imagination or have they disappeared out of shops this summer?

    Aldi do their own brand version if that's any use to you ;)

    I had one a few days ago. Still miss mint Feast though. That was much better than the regular chocolate version.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 638 ✭✭✭Estrellita


    I haven't seen feasts in shop freezers at all this summer. Slowly but surely my youth is erasing behind me. First Marathon became snickers. Then today I discovered monster munch are now mighty munch. What the actual fúck is going on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,153 ✭✭✭jimbobaloobob


    Havent seen Feasts in any shop over the summer on the western seaboard anyhow.

    I picked up Feast multipacks in Dunnes a few weeks ago. Way smaller than I remember :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,275 ✭✭✭Your Face


    In going to check the shops tomorrow.
    Haven't had one in awhile.

    What a fascinating post I wrote.

    I love feasts (especially the little chocolate bar in the centre) but they are very hard to get these days - There was one local shop that had them but that was about 3 months ago.

    I think they had gotten smaller anyway.

    I don't like that bit. I love the chocolate ice cream and the crunchy shell, but I eat that all off and then my wife has the rest.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,360 ✭✭✭Lorelli!


    I prefer a Choc Pop which is similiar to a Mint Feast but without the block of chocolate inside. Haven't seen them for years.

    Had a Loop de Loop a while ago and the top part fell off! That always happens with those :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,417 ✭✭✭ToddyDoody


    They're so gay though... oh wait I'm thinking of brunches.

    Feasts are really nice, I'd like to see them up the quality of the chocolate flavoured coating / centre though. Maybe try a white chocolate version too.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 13,102 Mod ✭✭✭✭JupiterKid


    I remember when Feast was launched - way back in 1984/85, when I was a wee lad. Loved them then, especially the mint feast.:)

    Haven't had one in ages. But please tell me they aren't gone!:(

    Has the Milky Way gone from shops? I haven't seen bars of Milky Way in ages and all that's left is the rip-off Milky Way pouch of "stars" that are rubbish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,705 ✭✭✭Mountainsandh


    Not a big fan of ice cream, but Feasts are my choice, always. What will I do if they're gone ? Magnums are way too fatty and rich for me.

    You can get milky way fun size bags of 14.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,813 ✭✭✭Noveight


    I've never had a mint Feast but if they're better than the regular ones then they must be good!

    I rarely enough have ice-cream, but a Magnum Almond or Twister does the job for me.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,615 ✭✭✭✭DrPhilG

    Not a feast to be found in shops around Galway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,807 ✭✭✭Badly Drunk Boy


    I had a couple of Feasts this year so they're definitely still around. I prefer the icier ice-pops, in particular, Calippo-type ones. I'm eating a Jiggly Pop at the moment though, the Aldi version of the Wibbly Wobbly Wonder.

    I hate when people come out with these comments! We've had great weather this year! May and June were great, with 3 good weeks for every bad one.

    As somebody else said, that's the gay version of the Feast. :pac:

    Feasts are still around, they are just so f*cking small now you can hardly see them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,812 ✭✭✭✭sbsquarepants


    I used to love feasts - but then they started getting smaller and smaller, especially the chocolate bit inside the ice-cream. Now they've gotten so small you can't actually see them with the naked eye.
    I blame brexit or possibly trump, or could be those blacks or the gypos maybe, I don't know, I just want a fúcking ice pop, it doesn't make me Hitler:mad:

    They just make them smaller now to save money. They also use cheaper chocolate as well which doesn't taste as good.

    I don't know what the hell it is they pass off as ice cream in their ice pops, but ice cream it ain't - the kids left one sitting on a table in another room the other day, must have been there for about 3 or 4 hours before it was copped yet it hadn't melted. Still looked like ice cream, but had held it's shape despite being room temperature:confused::confused:

    I spoke to a rep this summer when I was doing an order and when I ordered Feasts I was told they are discontinued!
    I have seen them in Multi packs in Dunnes though.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    I'm writing a letter of complaint to HB. They can't just stop making delicious ice creams and not tell us :mad: First Orange super splits and now Feasts. It's war!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,153 ✭✭✭jimbobaloobob


    Ahh disappointing to learn they are discontinued. Will have to find a new fix so.
