Whatever happened to…?

As a child I loved Bird’s Instant Whip. Then they changed it to Angel Delight, totally different and sickly sweet.

Creamola was a favourite in our house.

Toast Toppers. Whatever happened to those?

Nibbits - little puffed potato pieces with tomato flavouring. Light and crispy and utterly more-ish.

Braine's Faggots?

Think you might still be able to get Brain's Faggots, Maw. We saw some somewhere recently - DH got really excited. I, on the other hand, didn't.

Braine's Faggots?

You can still get these.

Sorry, kitty! It's just me jumping in commiting the sin of Not Reading The Whole Thread again 😂

Does commiting have two tt?

MAW:I got Brains faggots with my Tesco delivery the other week
NotToOld: We went to a wedding a few years ago at the reception they came around with Canapes, I would swear it was Toast Toppers on small pieces of toast. Ham & cheese flavour.
What about frozen Savoury pancakes, with either a beef mince in gravy or cheese. My daughter and I used to love them.

Wow! @ 62Granny and others… result!
I loved them AND they’re cheap as chips (or were …..)

Maw Iceland do them and there's 10% off on a Tuesday, must admit I prefer them to fresh ones which is DH's preference.

As a child I loved Koolose, a fizzy orangey flavoured powder that you mixed with water to make a delicious drink. It came in a jar wrapped in orange cellophane.
Also Clarnico peppermint creams.

I used to love toast toppers too 62Granny.
you can still buy the frozen savoury crispy pancakes in supermarkets but they're made by Bird's Eye now where as the original ones were Findus.

Toast toppers my favourites years ago I make my own version now. Brains faggots still available in the shops freezer section. Frozen pancakes are too neither of these products are as they were. Does anyone remember curry and rice in a tin beef curry one end rice the other. My mum used to boil the tin in a pan it was in the 70s about the time Vesta dried meal were popular.

I used to love something that no one’s ever heard of Biscuits called Dads Cookies

Ha! Redhead56 the Duo can. I wonder what it is they do to products that get “reintroduced” after many years that renders them not as good…cheaper ingredients or missing ingredient etc. Of course “they’re” unlikely to reveal the secrets😏

I like tinned fruit in syrup rather than in juice which sneakily often turns out to be other than the fruits natural juice, commonly grape juice😡
I suspect that there are many products discontinued here but still sold all over the world because of the conglomerates that own the brands.

My children used to love Savoury Pancakes with Minced Beef filling - so did I 😂

My Mothercare by BeRo flour...can you still get it?

St Ivel Lactic Cheese Spread, as a child I used to love it on cream crackers for supper.

Cheese Whiz. Made by Kraft. I loved this as a child, but it disappeared at about the time we joined the EU. I think it may have had ingredients banned in Europe.

I find many popular food items disappear. Marks used to sell minced lamb kebabs and tandoori chicken. No longer.

I do love Brains faggots but often end up with the 6 pack. OH isn’t a fan, so I only need two.

Astral soap. Loved the smell and the unusual shape which fitted nearly in the hand.
