    I have fond memories of eating Black Forest Gateau in the early 80's which was the big dessert of the time, sadly this has been condemmed to the food fashion grave yard since then.

    You can still get Texan bars (well at least until last year - haven't seen one more recently). Found them in an Indian corner shop in Woking.

    I miss:

    Puffa Puffa Rice breakfast cereal

    Original Birdseye Fish Fingers (the ones with proper breadcrumbs which would brown up nicely and you could strip em off and save them til last.

    Detective Cheroots - chocolate flavour candy sticks.

    Cider for 60p / pint (when I was at college)

    My granny, may God rest her soul, used to make these. Nowadays, hardly anyone knows these foods even exist (sigh!).

    There was one thing that I missed really really bad. But with the kindness and generosity of someone here, I was able to get back the taste of pomme frites (french fries) that I used to get in Germany.

    The old Pizza Hut recipe, from about 10 years ago. They seemed to use much better ingredients back then, and much more of them too! These days you get so little cheese.

    Got a Papa Johns on the way, now that's a pizza!

    Funny you should mention that just as I'm drinking this amazing drink I only discovered last week! It's incredible!

    5% alcohol iced tea ftw. On the bottle it says 'Works like beer, but tastes like tea!'

    yes but he has something you don't have, Swedish women and no food could substitute that. Swedish women vs fruity pebbles I know what I'll chose.
