Things you can't get anymore

    I have a request for after hours. I'm looking for somewhere in Dublin that sells M&M's Cookie Ice cream. They were a pair of cookies, full of M&Ms, with ice cream in the middle. Like an iceberger for the obese.

    Does anywhere still sell them? I've been looking for ages and no luck :(

    In that spirit, what do you miss that you can't get anymore? I love rhubarb and custards, the soft sweets, not boiled, but I can't get them anywhere and the odd time I find them, haribo don't use 'evil' colours and flavourings anymore, so they aren't bright happy sweets, they're the colour of vomit/slime. Damn nanny sweet companies, sweets are bad for you, stop trying to make them slightly less bad for some kids with bad parents who think their kids have ADD

    Fuse Bars! Heaven!!

    And all your talk of M&Ms reminded me of a special type of Twix bar out years ago that was flat with a thin layer of chocolate and caramel and M&Ms on top....

    Dammit now I'm hungry!!:mad::P

    yeah freddo's had caramel, froggo's were pure chocolate, an absolute steal at 10p!
    edit, what they said above.. still though, 10p!!!

    The thing I miss are freshers, they were sweets like silvermints but fruit flavoured, delish! Also, vice-versas, they were a chocolate treat for the gods themselves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 358 ✭✭milkycoffey


    I used to love those m&m icecream cookies. Now I just buy smarties cookies and fill them up with icecream. The chewier the cookies the better.

    I miss jelly stars; the best biscuit in the world. Now they can only be got when you buy a whole tin/box of USA biscuits :(

    Cadburys Astros

    Cadburys shots are almost as nice, but they lack the sugaryness.
    Cadbury's Top-Deck

    Loved top decks.

    They didn't have a long life span but Cadbury Crunchie Nuggets don't seem to be available anymore.

    Postman Pat penny sweets

    &

    Twix ice cream in a tub. Like the mars and malteasers tubs only it was Twix. Can't find it anywhere!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,481 ✭✭✭✭cson


    The only thing better than Postman Pat sweets were Woppa Bars [Red, not the Green mint abomination].

    I know they can probably found on ebay, but you can't get them in shops anymore.

    Wow, I REALLY want one of those M&M ice creams now :( Used to love them. You could definitely make your own version though. Screw study, that's my weekend plan!

    You can and I have. Not quite the same though. Still lovely.

    I recommend a pre-made cookie mix, betty crocker or something like that, then throw in a bag of m&ms instead of chocolate chips and stick some ice cream between 2. Nom nom nom. Easy as pie cookies.
