    I have never forgiven king for cutting off my Crunchos

    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.

    (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 :)

    Fuse bars!

    Cadbury did them and they were divine. Had raisins and bits of other stuff in them. They used to do a similar sweet in Roses for a while (pink wrapper) but they're gone too.

    Heinz potato salad - I was craving it so badly when I was pregnant with my daughter that I rang up the company about it.

    There was a semi-dry ham an cheese torteloni (forget the brand) that you used to be able to get in Sperquinn years ago but I have not seem it anywhere in Ireland in years. When I go abroad I stock up on it.

    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.

    What a weird way to put it! Front and back? It's top and bottom! :p

    The salad was the stuff in the tin - it tastes like potato salad with salad cream instead of mayonaise.

    Monster munch, and those halloween type speghetti hoops, you know the ones that used to have witches and ghosts instead of hoops! They were yum!

    I loved these also. Few others seemed to though :(

    They had the small versions in Miniature Heroes for quite a while after the full-size bar was discontinued. Then those ran out too. Sad day.

    Anyone looking for scampi fries, bacon fries or cheese moments.

    Peach flavour Angel Delight. Texan Bars. Skullcrushers, they were a white chocolate skull shaped sweet, with strawberry filling. Dunhill Devils jelly sweets, in the shape of a devil, body and head two different colours, 2p I think. Fizzle sticks. 3p chocolate mice, filled with rock hard toffee, your jaws got some workout:). Hellas bars, big bars of chocolate, with mint or strawberry filling. Busker bars. Coffee Roses, they were my favourite, Roses have gone to the dogs, all too samey. Used to get these cheese and ham grill yokes, covered in breadcrumbs, processed to the last, but lovely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,354 ✭✭✭cjmcork


    obviously fizzle sticks!

    but also cadburys used to make a cookies and cream bar about 10 years ago that was sinful, it was white chocolate with brown biscuit bits in it (it had a pink and cream wrapper)..................delicious

    also I used to love smokey bacon flavoured sam spudz in school...........happy days!

    It was Cola Cao, strangely enough. Does anyone remember Impress? It was a dried chocolate drink too, but granulated (like freeze-dried coffee) rather than powdered. It rocked.

    Yorkies when they used to have 6 squares and came in foil, they were much nicer than today
    How do you mean, foil? As in like the inner layer that used to be in Cadbury's eight-piece bars?

    Saw a seven-piece Yorkie in a shop recently. Bought it immediately of course :)

    Really? My local Chinese take-away here in England is lovely! :)

    I miss the old tins of roses, the ones that had the strawberry creams, orange creams and coffee creams :( I love my caramel sweets but Cadbury's ruined Roses by making sure that nearly 50% of the sweets in the tins are some sort of caramel :(

    Vice Versas were gorgeous. Like Minstrels, except the bag was mixed and some had white chocolate in a brown crispy shell, and others had milk chocolate with a white crispy shell. Oh YUM.

    Jives. Moo Bars. Tangle Bars. Peanut Lions. Mint or Orange Drifters. Mint Wispas. Orangina. Bubbalicious! Cadbury's 3 Wishes. Hula Hoops potato rings (they were like chips, but round like hula hoops, and NYOM). Fat Frogs. I'm sure there's more. Oh, and that Kelloggs cereal, the Cornpops one. Tooth-rottingly tasty.
