Does any one know which supermarket still sells it? It has disappeared off the face of the Earth and was very popular when I was a teenager.

Many thanks in advance.

I think it is sold in just about every supermarket here and a few of the Health food shops sell it too..My favourite is M&S's version, very nice and not too spicy..I'm a wimp when it comes to spicy stuff!

I used to really, really love Tescos Bombay mix, but they changed their recipe so I'm now looking for another. Will give the M&S one a try.

Asda's Bombay Mix is very nice indeed.

Too nice.

Morrisons and Tesco flog it here, and Holland & Barrett health shops do their own. Karachi Crunch is damn fine too.

Definitely Asian places. The place I go to has about 15 different types. I get a big bag for next to nothing, tends to last me a couple weeks.

Cofresh is the best, you find it on the ethnic aisle in Tesco's or Sainsbury's.

I prefer Balti Mix, its the same ingredients, just hotter.

Yeah like a lack of French day trippers has made a difference.

My area has a big Asian community, so the local Asda stocks many types of Bombay Mix and similar savoury snacks.

Cofresh is the best, Tesco and Asda usually sell it in the "world foods" aisle, there's lots of other similar products in the Cofresh range.
