Favourite lines disappearing from shops

I've not seen butterscotch, can't remember the name but they were rectangular and had posh gold wrappers.

kittylester I think it was. I used to love Moffat toffee which we got as a treat when we visited my Grandma, we passed through Moffat on the way. Does it still exist? ( the toffee I mean, not Moffat)!

I'd forgotten about Moffat toffee (much to the delight of my teeth lol), but you can buy it online. I'm resisting the temptation for now, but I suspect, now that the seed has been planted, an order will be placed before the weekend comes

In the 'not just food' bracket...Boots Royal Jelly

Anyone remember Walkers having cheese flavoured crisps ? Just cheese & not cheese & onion ... they were lovely & really tasty

And my nearest (to Oxford) is Aylesbury....boohoo
I shall check when I next go anywhere else.

Oxon70 I can still get those pressed dates in Morrison's.

what about Callard and Bowsers nougat neatly wrapped in rice paper then embossed foiled and then BOXED.

Cari I keep buying Caramac in the hope that it tastes the same but either I've changed or it has!

And those blocks of pressed dates that were so useful for cooking. anyone know where/if you can still get them?

Another thing; I used to get a little tin of Cheese Flaps = cheese ravioli. Can't remember who made them, when did they go?

Terrys Old Gold and Black Magic were our Xmas favourites, now taste bland. I loved Spangles - Acid Drop ones and Blackcurrant being the best. Thank god Pink bathrooms are out - I've only liked white bathroom suites. The original Hovis - not the soft type we have now - though Cranks brown loaf is ok.

Last time I stopped in Moffat the toffees were still there. I don't risk them because I have a mouth full of crowns and bridges.

Was it Bluebird toffee that came in a tray with a little hammer. We used to have the brazil nut one. And Caramac which now has some completely different confection in its place Did Fry's chocolates have the boys wearing caps on the front or was that something else?

And Bluebird toffees, chocolate covered caramels in blue wrappers, sold individually in our school tuck shop.

Palm toffee, with a picture of a palm tree on the wrapper, mmmmm! Used to get awful sticky though as I ate my way through it.

Or even "buy"

I think I do raggyI used to by highland toffees, I think they were two for a penny, and they glued your jaw together nicely!

Does anyone remember Palm Toffee bars? Great for pulling your fillings out! Banana split was my favourite. I used to spend my bus fare on a bar and then walk home from school.

Not sure about the pies yoga,but the corned beef was veerrrrry lean
Jingle Thanks for the tip I will be looking out for polpaplu

yoga - Fray Bentos pies are still available. We recently put together a bag of 60's /70's foodstuffs as a prize for a charity competiton and included one of them. Also had several items mentioned on this thread!

You can get Fray Bentos pies in the tin in the pound shop. We can't eat them these days though because they are loaded with fat. But still delicious!

Cirio tomatos come in a carton now. They call them Polpapiu. (?!) Good if you only use half a carton though. You can put the other half in freezer without decanting.

Was it Fray Bentos who used to make the pies in a tin, all you had to do was take the lid off the tin then cook the pie

I Have missed Fray Bentos corned beef and Cirio tomatoes
