I'll be getting a few Whispas in next week, I also miss :
Nutty Bars
Dinasour Eggs
Pacers (Remegel Spearmint are a good supstitute)
Spangles (esp Old English ones)
Fresca
Quattro
Top Deck
Tudor Crisps
Hedgehog & Dragon Flavour Crisps
Texans (had a fair few of those during their limited release a tear or so ago)
Were they not effectively relaunched as Flyte bars?
I lost weight when I was 15 lost about 4 stone, I got introduced to these flyte bars because they were lower in fat and sugar, Because they were lower in fat I ate twice as much and got addicted to them, They were yummy....And yup I started eating all the crap again and hey presto I am a fat ass again :D
Umbongo! That was a nice drink for kids. I never see it anymore
way down deep in the middle of the congo the hippos took an apricot a guava and a mango he put them all together and he danced a dainty tango ...cant remember the rest
You can get scampi flavoured nik naks in multi packs in poundland !! Also just happened to notice you can also still get Beef flavoured Monster Munch but again in multi packs sold in Icelands - shame you cant buy them individually anymore tho !
You can get dinosaur eggs in Marks and Spencers and my local shop still sells Kellogs Country Store.
Every single time one of these threads comes up Cabanas are mentioned.
Who used to make them - surely there can be a petition to get them re-launched? They were basically a bounty with cherry pieces and caramel on top - can't be too difficult can it?
They must have been gone for nearly 30 years too!!!!!! :eek:
ETA: Link doesn't seem to work, so type 'nerds' into Wiki
my mouth started watering as soon as the page loaded
"Nerds Cereal, a now discontinued breakfast cereal that, like the candy, featured 2 separated flavors to a box. The cereal came with a mail-in offer for a Nerds cereal bowl, which also could be divided in two. "
wow
I also love sour skittles, I used to eat a LOT of them when I was younger, they still sell them in a lot of the shops I go in.
I miss spaghetti flavour monster munch! you could only get them in the multipack along with roat beef flavour. does anyone else know what i'm on about?

Here you go:
Way down deep in the middle of the Congo,
A hippo took an apricot, a guava and a mango.
He stuck it with the others, and he danced a dainty tango.
The rhino said, "I know, we'll call it Um Bongo"
Um Bongo, Um Bongo, They drink it in the Congo.
The python picked the passion fruit, the marmoset the mandarin.
The parrot painted packets, that the whole caboodle landed in.
So when it comes to sun and fun and goodness in the jungle,
They all prefer the sunny funny one they call Um Bongo!

You can order them online at cadbury-world. £24 for a crate of 48.
Not that anyone typing this has ordered any
Nothing like a good bit of nostalgia. They'd better still taste as good...
I used to love Nerds too! According to Wikipedia, they're still going but Dweebs aren't (don't remember them)

You can still get Scampi Nik-Naks; there is one garage in Aber that sells them... but you can't get them in any supermarkets around here.

Vice Versa's
Mmmmm
I have no idea whether it has been discontinued but I haven't seen it for years!!
I bought a wispa yesterday. First time i have seen it in years, although did they not change it to cadbury's bubbly?
Apart from being great for sandwiches, it had the amazing property of making your pee a fluorescent yellow colour a few hours after eating some.
I loved them so much! They ceased production now, i should have stockpiled bags and put them in an airtight room :mad:
I remember a turquoise lolly, not ice pop, that was blackcurrant flavoured and turned my mouth blue:D
Pink Panther chocolate bars - soooo pink:)
Also, we sold an ice cream called Hearts - that was a heart shaped choc ice on a stick that had vanilla ice cream and raspberry ripple inside.
I am sure about 20 years ago there was an orange ice lolly that contained vanilla ice cream in the centre.
Anyone remember a Lord Toffingham?
