A sad, melancholy thread, but what foodstuffs did you genuinely love and were heartbroken when they stopped them?
For me:
Marmite Gold. Why make it a limited edition? Why?!?!
Thorntons Eden chocolates
Cadbury Dairy Milk Silvery Creme bar. Stupid "Olympics" edition. Why finish just because the Olympics did?
*sob*

Frys Turkish delight..
Not the dreadful Cadbury offering we get now.
I used to like Cabana bars.. Like a single bounty with cherries in.
And Nutty bars, fudge, jam coating, covered in peanuts!

"Breakfast in bed.
Not sure if it's actually been discontinued or not - but it's been a fucking age since I've seen it!
A"
When my husband and I were dating, he used to get me (and him) McDonalds breakfasts in bed, as I lived very near one.
Those were discontinued long ago, but I still have the memories!
Good times. |

Heinz baked beans, before they started fiddling with the sauce recipe. Don't say they haven't because they have. The baked beans they sell today are not the same as they were 30 years ago. |

"Cadbury spira. Miss suckling my cuppa tea through them  "
This for me but I liked them with cold milk. There's a definite gap in the market for chocolate that can be used as a straw! |

The old fashioned sweet shop down here sells the proper midget gems and when I go in I get them put as many black ones in as they can. Was totally gutted when they put the blackcurrent ones in the Maynards packs. |

"Spangles.
Can you still get those biscuits with sports figures on them, I used to like those as a child to see what sport I got. "
Morrisons gave them, and Foxs do them. |
