Chocolate marshmallows. Made by Jacobs? Not seen nor eaten one for years. I was also partial to an ice cream wafer shaped slab dunked in American Cream Soda, not sure the digestion would accommodate one, especially after a few pints of Blue Moon.

Westler's tinned beefburgers in onion gravy. Served with peas, tinned potatoes and bread and butter. Heaven..,.

Mmm, not sure I’d call that heaven, but each to their own lol.

Well that`s wrong straight away, they should be home baked and filled with tiny prawns from the cord en blue freezer place and marie sauce from salad cream and DADDIES tom ketchup. Maybe just maybe 5 sprinkles of paprika.

Correct.
The other filling is chicken and mushroom- diced chicken breast, with a tin of Campbell's condensed cream of mushroom soup stirred in.

I loved them!

Nik-Naks (scampi and lemon flavour, obvs)
Those Gob-stopper things (hard sugar casing with chewing-gum middle).
Lion bars.
Wheat Crunchies
Creme Eggs.
Juicy Fruit chewing gum
Kinder surprise
Milky bar kid

All of these things are still with us. I'm struggling to think of something that genuinely disappeared that I used to eat.

I was really young in the 80s

The Cadbury Criss Cross bar - a corn based snack bar that had a cheese praline in the centre. The smokey bacon one was fantastic.

dragging up an old post i know but i was searching for these and landed here, i would love another criss cross snack.

The Cadbury’s thingies that looked like a Pringle covered in chocolate. They were awesome!

 

[jpaul]

Abbey crunch - genuinely disappeared RIP.
Club biscuits - with thick chocolate on the outside
Golden Nuggets ... original incarnation were large pillows, doubt new ones taste the same.

Were fritters not a thing back then also. Can't even remember what they are, I think you got hamburger's in tins also. All tinned stuff.

These biscuits may still do them though.

And these

Can never beat your custard creams though.
