Stealing and idea from the main board because it was interesting and I'm hungry.
What foods do you miss?
Corn Pops cereal.
Those yoghurts that came in a doughnut shaped pot and in the hole in the middle there would be a Kinder egg style toy alien. They also did a line of chocolate UFOs filled with yoghurt.
The Sunny Delight that made kids violent.
The fizzy drinks with the tapioca balls in it. Orbz? Something like that.

Oh god you just reminded me of the existence of Frufoos. I was absolutely addicted to the yoghurt filled chocolate ones. Best thing ever. I was gonna post this in the US thread yesterday but nobody there will know the brand. Batchelor's King Prawn noodles were the best noodles and they stopped making them for no reason a few years ago. I'm still not over it. I can't even find any prawn flavoured noodles by any other brand either as an alternative which sucks.  |

Those yoghurts your mention - Onken Frufoo Yoghurt - s always my immediate answer when this question pops up.
Also:
Spaghetti sauce flavour Monster Munch
Kellogg's Banana Bubbles (the cereal that thinks its a milkshake!)
I also remember enjoying red Sunny Delight and a green one.
And the grandaddy of the all...
CREAMOLA FOAM.

Frufoo! That was it!
Am I correct in thinking that Nice n Spicy Pot Noodle has ceased to be?
A petrol station near us used to sell these sweets that were shaped like pieces of fruit and had Daffy Duck on the bag. Those were great.

Marble chocolate bar made by Cadbury, although it has since been rereleased in Australia so I had some imported a few months back.
Pickled Onion flavoured Discos, used to be my favourite crisp growing up along with the Salt & Vinegar ones. They were replaced with a Prawn Cocktail version which is still quite nice but not a touch on the Pickled Onion ones.
Milkybar milkshake. Have tried to replicate it and also been to those milkshake places where you add candy in them but nothing has come close.
I can’t remember the name but it was a football themed Lime flavoured ice lolly with Cola flavour inside. Every lolly would have ‘GOAL’ or ‘SAVE’ or something on the lolly.

Dairy Milk Dream bars were always my favourite, but I don’t think they make them now.

When I lived in France there were a few cereals that we didn't have. One was called Frosties: Grrrrr and were around for about 5 years before we ever got Krave cereal and were exactly the same but with tiger stripes on the cereal pillows. I was so happy when we finally got a similar cereal because they were so tasty. They also had a cereal called Crisp-X which were honey-glazed corn-based lattices. Very tasty. We never had them over here but I believe I tried them in America and just found they do have a version. I don't think the French version exists anymore but would love them to be sold over here  |

Old Jamaiica thought you lads want know it, it was out when I was a bin lid then stopped, well nothing lasts forever even me. just Googled it turns out they came back at the start of the year under a different wrapper sooner have the old wrapper, utter madness 2020 again. it was the size of a multi bar me and two older Brothers use to share a bar it's fking Gorgeous . Europe look down there noises at are Chocolate say it as to much Vegetable fat in it . Belgium is Famous for the best Chocolate , don't know know what the Ameriican stuffs like. Cadbury has announced it’s bringing back a favourite from days of yore – the Old Jamaica bar. It’s all down to a Facebook petition from followers of Cadbury. The brand asked their fans which vintage chocolate bar they’d like back on the shelves, and the result was overwhelming.

Asda used to make an own brand flavour in the 90's which I ate all the time too. I just don't get why this flavour doesn't exist anymore when Batchelor's have like 6 variations on chicken which all taste the same. |

I'm the same vein there's an acid reflux pill I used to take called ridiatine or something they've recently discontinued that with no reason too, when I tried finding out why I couldn't find anything at all, but it's banned by the FDA in the US. |

Could be, I do recall some food additive getting banned by the EU a few years back because it was found to have carcinogenic properties. The sweet and sour sauce we got from the Chinese takeaway became distinctly less red after that. |
