Aztec bar ( Cadbury's version of a Mars bar) Cabana ( like a bounty but with toffee and cherries in it) Old Jamaica ( rum and raisin choc) KP Discos ( flat version of pringles) Bar six ( bit like a kit kat) When were disco’s discontinued? I used to love them. I’m sure they were selling them in a petrol station near me a few months back

I have fond memories of Mackintosh's Mint Cracknel. It was a very long time ago though, and I'm sure if I were able to try it now, I'd probably be disappointed.

Will now be looking out for them. Same with old Jamaica.

Oh my god forgot all about ice breakers! Loved them! (Oh and breaker malt liquor as well! Lol but that's for anothwr thread 😅) Breaker and Colt 45. . school disco refreshments Counters with a camel on the packet Nudge and Catch bars but think may have been Ireland only Tom''s Yankee Bar There was a crisp with a football card in. All Stars? Was it called Ruffle? A raspberry flavoured bar Ruffles are Premier League quality. B&Ms still do them in multipacks. Old Jamaica, as someone mentioned earlier, my daughter got me one the other week. First time I'd seen one since I used to get them off the 'shop van' in about 1982.

Crisps I remember hedgehog flavour. They were unusual. I used to like the crisps with the little blue bag of salt.

My Mum used to insist on getting biscuits called Happy Faces. Were a smiley face sandwich with honey and cream inside, man, they were horrible. Always wanted Garibaldi, Gypsy creams or Jamborees.

Our local ‘big’ supermarkets have varying levels of ‘international’ food isles.
The posh one has a smattering of Cadburys chocolate biscuits, jelly tots, Aeros. Also Robinsons Lemon Barley and, occasionally Ribena.

Found a Waitrose aisle in a supermarket in Koh Samui recently, I'd managed to avoid chocolate biscuits for 2 whole weeks up until then, sadly I fell off the wagon big time

Tudor Crisps and Jamaica Rum and Raisin bar - the latter I can never understand why it was ditched. Bazooka Joe - with some sort of comic thing inside is a childhood memory but probably hate them now. Trio bars were indeed good and a shame they've gone.

Looks like the Rum and Raisin bar is now branded as "Bourneville" (but still Cadburys) and can be found in Morrisons etc.
