By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

Discontinued sweets, crisps, chocolate bars and fizzy drinks. Personally I’ve not seen time out bars in years. There’s got to be plenty more that have been discontinued that we all liked to eat and drink. If you could bring any of them back what would it be?

I think it was called Big Deal or something like that... But a quick Google hasn't shown up anything, so I'm forced to accept the possibility that I imagined the whole thing. Either that, or our local pub was running bootleg chocolate bars

Time Outs are still going but they changed the thin chocolate flake middle to a chocolate cream thing. I was so annoyed by this travesty I actually emailed Cadbury to voice my displeasure Got me nowhere but it did make me feel a bit better
