So grumpy about this !

The latest of my faves to suffer this fate is the most amazing Chai Teabags. I love them .

It ALWAYS happens to the food and drink I like! So unfair. I surely can't be the only person who liked these delicious products???????

Chai tea bags are everywhere by so many different tea providers. I use Twinings.

Twinings were the ones I loved . They've changed the recipe and they're now called "Spicy Chai" and cost the same but for 5 less bags per box which are nowhere near as nice sadly.

I tried the Pukka ones and they are a good 2nd choice Cathh70 .

The other (admittedly obscure) range of products which I LOVED and then suddenly disappeared off the shelves are:

1)Sainsbury's Chunky Paprika Squid

2) Amy's Kitchen did an AMAZING pea & paneer plus channa dhal curry ready meal thing (surprisingly healthy) which Asda used to sell

Hold your breath, I'm sure I'll be able to remember some other discontinued gems ......

It's a sign of getting old. It will get worse and spread to every area of stuff you buy. You loved that perfume - gone, Your favorite cosmetics - gone, Your favorite underwear - gone, or now strangely made out of itchy material.

And then there's anything that has a "New improved recipe" label on it. It wont be.

This is your future. It will piss you off

I'm gutted. I've just been told that Kelloggs have discontinued my favourite cereal, Honey Pops Pillows. My local asda were selling them off at £1 a few weeks ago. Wish I'd bought more at the time

Same here. Sainsbury used to sell Root Beer but it was discontinued a few years back now I can't get root beer anywhere and its one of my favourite soft drinks.

If you're really desperate for it you can get it on Amazon - http://www.amazon.co.uk/A-W-Root-Beer-24/dp/B000G2OWBU

Yuck! I tried it a couple of years ago because they were always drinking it on american programs. It just tasted like cough medicine.😞

You can buy root beer extract from Amazon or brewers shops and make your own.

Sodastream also do root beer.

Totally agree with both the crisps. There have been many many limited edition crisp flavours come and go which i much prefer to the usual boring ones! Mostly curry ones admitedly!!

Also Sharwoods did a limited edition Bhut Jolokia curry sauce which was gorgeous. Gone!
Pataks made beautiful vindaloo curry sauce and then a "new improved" version came along which isn't a patch on the original.
I could rant on for ages on this subject!!
