What discontinued food do you miss?

I 'd rather buy a small tin of salmon and mashit up with black pepper and salad cream. Very nice on a toasted half roll.
There is very little food I actively dislike. Tripe I hate the look of all those holes.

Alexa - remember your cream cookies very well! My mother always had them ordered from the baker's van that came round and as an extra treat she would open them up and put in a spoonfull of homemade rasp jam. Heaven! They had a shiny top on them which I think was a syrup glaze.

That's right Jacq10. I remember the brown glaze on top. Those cookies were also nice plain and split and spread with jam. Homemade rasp jam is wonderful!

Royal Scot biscuits!

Where has all the Puffed Wheat gone?

Grumppa it's gone out of fashion - haven't you heard? Everyone's got gluten intolerance now!

Definitely Heinz Vegetable Salad in a tin and those yummy Lyons individual apple or strawberry pies. Where is Lyons these days?
The small six in a box fruit tarts available now are nothing like.

I have not heard of half of the items mentioned- maybe I led a sheltered life. I miss nothing.

Green and Black's dark chocolate with sour cherries disappeared quite suddenly. Neither of us has a sweet tooth but we both loved it. Most confectionary is just too sweet.

Kunzle cups for me too. The ones with the coconut filling, like Bounty Bars. I still hanker after them! It was a Sunday treat after church.
You can still get cream cookies in our local bakers, Alexa.

Lincoln biscuits - yum. I agree with others about the heinz salad on a tin. I also remember, for a time, you could get Heinz tomato ketchup with onion. It was delicious but must not have been very popular as suddenly it was gone.

Oooo I had forgotten about acid drop spangles! They were so delicious. My mouth is watering at the memory.

What a great thread this is, brings back so many memories, and is an antidote to the many gloomy threads we have had on GN in the last year.
Never had cremola though, or heard of Barmouth biscuits, and how do you all come to have such good memories?
I loved the veg salad in a tin as a child, and also the tinned cream, Nestles?I even loved Carnation evap.
We had a breakfast called fru-logs which was bought at a health food shop ( considered a bit weird in those days) they were malty and yummy with hot milk.
Butchers used to sell delicious potted meat from tubs in their shop, long gone I expect ( that was in Yorkshire.)

Butchers also sold fab dripping ( mouth waters at the thought) and black pudding ( which does seem to have made a comeback.)

Tomato flavoured crisps

Another one here who loved Heinz vegetable salad in a tin!
Does anyone remember a cracker type biscuit called something like Saltines? I think they came in a sheet and you snapped them apart.

Chocolate lovelies, bloody gorgeous

Butterscotch Instant Whip. We used to put dried coconut in it - very decadent.

Sterilized milk - I don't like milk, but loved a glass of "sterra."

McVities chocolate Vienna biscuits and Dorset creams☺

Cremola and Heinz vegetable salad bring back such memories. Does anyone remember Bengers Food? Mother practically force fed us with it whenever we were ill. I didn’t mind, I loved it.

Vanilla Instant whip/Angel Delight. Used instead of cold custard (which I loathe) on trifles and similar cold deserts.

I keep frozen runner beans in my freezer. Purchased from Sainsbury's, also think that Iceland do them

Puffed Wheat, yes! Fru-Grains, St Ivel Lactic Cheese, Vita-Wheat and Macvita, like Ryvita but nicer; Thin Wine and Small Rich Tea biscuits. Can you still get junket? I didn't particularly like it though.

Pineapple slices from Fergusons restaurant in Glasgow.1955+
