Trio (I made the mistake of showing my 8 year-old the adverts on YouTube)
drifter - though tunnocks do a wafer bar which is similar I think) (caramel wafer)
(and not chocolate but curry crispy pancakes)

I used to do any odd chore I could, and even scout the streets for dropped pennies, just so that I could pop to the local shop and feed my unholy addiction to Texan bars.
To this day, I dream of that chewy goodness.
Edit: Wikipedia informs be that they stopped Texans in 1984 but did a limited edition relaunch in 2005. I didn't know! Further heartbreak.
You'd think given that "A 2004 survey of sweet shops' customers rated the Texas bar their favourite sweet of all time, by a large margin" that they'd bring it back permanently.
I can dream.

We pined for those. They brought them back recently but they were just not the same.

Yeah? Bars of Cadbury's Dream (white chocolate) imported from Australia selling for over double the price of a bar of Cadburys white chocolate which you can pick up in Asda. Wonder if B&M dropped those overpriced Aussie Caramilk bars now that they are available in the UK.

Anyone seen those Nestle Crunch bars - small white ones?

Try Home Bargains, they had some the other week but I imagine they sold out very quickly. I didn't see any when I was in my local one the other day.To buy Milkway crispy rolls

Probably going to have to look online or find a black market.
Clearly they're in demand!
Australian chocolate is mostly better than what we get here (both in taste and sheer variety, their KitKats are amazing) and B&M charges a lot less than the imported snack websites do, but yes the plain Aussie Caramilk bars don't seem to appear any more.
Seems you can still get Rocky's.

Probably already said but Cadburys DM, before Kraft/mondolez whoever ruined it. Then told us we preferred the new stuff. Like ... we do.
Also Maverick bars.

Spira for me - have never been a fan of milk chocolate but Spira was a major exception for me - loved it

Drifter, for sure. It was always the superior 2 finger chocolate bare when put against the Twix - not that I dislike Twix.
But I don't miss them as much as I miss Beef 'n' Onion crisps from Walkers. OT, I know, but I was over the moon when they brought them back in 2014, after years of "Steak and onion" rubbish. Then they went and discontinued them again.
