Favourite food you can't get anymore?

Hurricane-Dean · 2011-08-06 18:30:10

Had a bag of the teddy bear crisps earlier and nowhere seems to do the salt and vinegar flavour anymore!! What foods did you like that you can't get anymore? Also not selling lucky charms here anymore is a joke!!

Crunchos. Hot Dog flavoured snacks. Awesome.

I remember I used to eat 10 bags of them every sunday and wash it down with a bottle of coke. It's a wonder I'm still alive.

Nah I never liked double deckers! Cadburys Top deck were like dairy milks except with white chocolate on the front and milk chocolate on the back.

Oh and almond Mars Bars were lovely too!

Scampi Fries.

I only know two pubs that do them - one in Birmingham, one in Coventry. The serving of scampi fries has a huge impact on my opinion of any drinking establishment.

Lucky charms are not difficult to get ffs.

Where the hell are these shops that still sell them? They're not in Lucan anyway

You can get lucky charms, jolly ranchers et all in that Happy Pills sweet shop in Temple Bar! They also sell nerds and gobstoppers...nyom.

Speaking of which, I've never once seen them anywhere, do Cheese Moments actually exist?

Bingo bars!

Mint toffos?

And for a few years back there Caramac bars, but then I once again saw them being sold and quite frankly I was extremely disappointed, I suppose cheap chocolate just tastes better when you're a child.

What shops were selling lucky charms, I only saw them in that specialty food shop off south georges st they were about 9 euro.

I'm actually not a sugar fiend as this post makes me out to be :~)

I was wondering where they went alright. I thought I was mixing them up with nik nak's.

Now I'm going to have to get a packet of nik nak's to go along with my Walnut whip.... Its a good thing I haven't eaten any crap in ages. I feel this thread is going to have me looking around the shop for nice not made any more substitutes.

Alien Spacers

(they were a type of crisps that came in a foil bag had 3x diff shaped crisps - and possibly diff flavours in the one bag?)

I remember them from the 80s - there were orange and white crisps in one bag - not sure if they were diff flavours but I remember I really liked them!! nom nom

I know this isn't necessarily a food...

But as an adult, I wish the cereal I bought had toys in them, just sometimes sigh.
And because I live without siblings now I wouldn't even have to be a filthy little scummy thing and rifle through the box at arms length to get the freebie

I apologise for how unrelated this is,
I hate the way you can't just win a promotion anymore you have to log on or text in. boo.

Apologies
