Chicken rissoles from the 1970's. Can't remember the brand but they were delicious and probably full of banned flavourings. Preceded by a bag of Burton's Potato Puffs then washed down with a glass of luminous green Cresta.
I know, it still exists but not as we know it .....
I used to enjoy a Fray Bentos Steak and Kidney Pie. A couple of years ago, presumably so that they could continue to be sold in the Pound Shops, they effectively took out pretty much all the meat, leaving just the pastry and some gravy with a few indeterminate bits floating around - gross.

Just warm some precooked meat in the microwave and add it while serving!
The proper Cheeselets, not the terrible modern treelets or whatever they call the fake intruders
Are Cheese Footballs not as good as they used to be as well? Or perhaps I'm just more discerning/less drunk these days. (I see they are made by KP not Peek Freans.)

St Ivel Lactic Cheese - a soft cheese with a salty acidic bite, which came wrapped in foil inside a distinctive dark blue box with white printing . Delicious on toast or water biscuits.

Bloody loved that stuff and I'd pay good money to have some again with a homemade Scotch Egg.

Far better than the biscuit, & the peanut variants. God knows what Cadburys were thinking when they brought in guarana boost! 🤨
I loved those. Very sad when they disappeared.
I used to enjoy settling down with one, whilst watching Quantum Leap on a Tuesday night. (Bizarre ritual, funny old memory)
I don't think the skin at the top of my mouth has ever grown back after biting into them lava pouches.
Another one gone is the Tongue Twister ice lolly(ice cream lolly), basically a neapolitan on a stick. Better than the Twister of today.
Can only be enjoyed on your own!
Can confirm - tastes exactly like they did 35 years ago 😁
They were so, so good.
