I realised yesterday that I have not had any cream and cheesey Nik Naks for ages due to them no longer making them and they also stopped making Wispa Golds again after they remade them for a brief period.
What do you miss?

I'm not sure if you can still get these or not. I haven't seen them for a long time though. Vice Versa sweets and Ringo crisps.

I have a childhood memory of eating a packet of sweets called 'Pacers' and loving them.
I may have imagined this though.

Nope. Green and white striped chewy mints. Individually wrapped, too. We used to buy these great big chews off the penny tray. I'm bloody sure that they were called McEWAN'S, but can't seem to find any history.

You can still get it. Try the freezer section in any supermarket.

Get her fĂșcking told then lad. If she won't get you some throw a tantrum, tell her you hate her and slam a few doors.
If that doesn't work go the shop yourself you lazy bastard.

I would have thought India was a more likely destination.
