So following on from the shops you used to remember that are now closed, what food stuffs do you remember that you can't get these days?

Along with Woolworths pick and mix that I saw on the other thread, I'll go with Vitalite margarine

The pancakes doesn't surprise me but Smash does - would have thought it had died a death years ago.

Toast toppers were wonderful although had a nasty habit of scalding the top of your mouth
