This happened to me last year. I think they are trying to make the healthy! Tastes like cardboard  |

A crisp sandwich these days is often shite. Regular taytos has become near tasteless. Kings aren't much better. Then the prices do my head in, the Christmas boxes should be available year round. I think Pringles aren't half bad besides being extremely expensive and unhealthy. |

I find the Lidl nuts nicer but even then the salted peanuts aren’t as salty anymore. |

"It all started when they took the alcohol out of gripe water.
It's been downhill since.
Cadet Shandy, late seventies, 0.2% alcohol but they had to take even that from us. Bastards!  "
Was it not club shandy in the brown coloured can
Kids version of Smithwicks |

Seem to remember it was still available in Newry and I was asked to buy a few bottles when I was up there |

Cadet used to do it in bottles back in the day. I'm half wondering now if it was Cadet or a relatively local drinks manufacturer that did it in the little bottles? It was dirt cheap but it didn't seem to be around for long. I remember we used to buy it on the way home from U12 matches. I think by the time I got to U14 it had already gone. The Club Shandy seems later to me and a much more polished product, as well as being twice the price.  |

Club was made in Ballyfermot and the factory is still there
Cadet was made on the long Mile road from what I can remember |

There used to be a load of other smaller drinks manufacturers dotted around the country. Beside us in the northwest we had Drino and close enough in the other direction was Cavan Mineral Waters who made that glorious drink known as Cavan Cola... Had a head like Guinness with a possibly vanilla flavour? Glorious stuff! There was at least two more smaller companies supplying into the area at the time. |

They are now after Aldi changed theirs but the Lidl are also not what they used to be.
If anyone knows where one can find actually nice dry roasted peanuts, please share  .
