A pretty good list here. They failed to mention Jell-O Gelatin Pops, which I loved. For a more local thing, I miss Canfield's sodas, in particular their Swiss Cream cream soda.

What are some foods you miss that are no longer produced/available in your area?

Cadbury's fuse bars...... Easily the greatest chocolate bar ever.

Friggin' Jamaican meat patties. I haven't had one since I was in the Bahamas in 2008. They must exist in western supermarkets somewhere but I haven't been lucky enough to find them.

PB Crisps! Omg I loved those. And the Mario/Zelda cereal...

I miss Ice Cubes.. They're an old fashion-y type of cubed chocolate my mom and I loved. They still make it, but you gotta order on like Amazon..

Not a commercial food, but I really miss my mom's cooking. ;_;

Since we're on the subject of how cheap Cadbury's is, how about we get back the larger Creme Eggs.

I wish we could still just buy popping candy on its own, but I haven't see it at the grocery store in forever. There are probably specialty confectionery places around here that stock it but I'm not sure. The closest thing I can buy nowadays at the store are popping candy Freddos and while they are delicious, it's just not the same, and I can't use that for cooking.

As for that list, I don't recognise like any of the foods on it.

The ice cream thread just reminded me of a vanilla ice cream with orange glaze and chocolate chips that sainsbury's used to do, I still look for it in any shop that sells ice cream, not even the specialist shops do anything similar.

I don't recognise anything in that list.

I miss Lucky Charms

It could be either you're both too young, or that the list is very American-centric, because, you know, the world revolves around US.

Jess, are you talking about the cereal w/ the little marshmallows? It's still available here. Maybe the Brits didn't take to a cereal w/ a leprechaun mascot. ​They're magically Catholic!

[Miss Mae]

I'm going to guess it's because the list is American-centric.

omg.

Remember Handi Snacks!?

The little crackers or crispy breadsticks that came with a tiny ass cup of cheeze whiz!? And it was only enough for like 2 crackers when 4 came in the pack!?

[StarCross1988]

OMG PB CRISPS! And Squeezits!

I'm surprised the 3D Doritos aren't on that list, I really loved those when I was younger too.

Squeeze Its, oh my god ;________________________; Best fruit punch ever growing up! I liked the commercials with the four different faces and that there was always a grumpy one.

These were considered "expensive drinks" in my family so whenever we got a pack, I savored the trout out of it.
