Premature Comestible Withdrawal

I was surprised to find that you can no longer buy Shield soap, my armpits need this to get rid of my hideous funk. Over the years some of my favourite groceries have disappeared such as Start breakfast cereal and Vesta Chow Mein (fair enough it was horrible) has anyone else suffered from discontinuation of favoured requisites, or is it just a sign of my old age.

    That toothpaste is weird. I don't know why - but whenever I use it I get great stringy bits of flob in my gob.

    I hope it's toothpaste anyway?!?

    oh no, when my wife kept saying Sainsbury's didn't have it I just thought it was sold out but you are right they have stopped making it, back in 2018 !! Not a happy bunny finding that out.

    looks like Shield is still available for your funky armpits, Morrisons, Asda, Sainsbury's, Tesco, Wilkinson and even Ocado. Home - Shield Soap

    I can't stand peppermint or spearmint, I put up with it because there ain't a lot of choice, but I chuck my guts up most mornings and nights using normal toothpaste.

    I think it was a good idea to remove Shield from the shops if people thought it was a comestible.

    Get involved in some Euthymol mate. Burns the fuck out of your gob and tastes like what you'd think deep heat tastes like.

    I absolutely love this stuff . It does to your mouth what the mint version of original source shower gel does to your parts.

    Watneys, my old uncle used to say, “don’t take the piss out of watneys, it needs all the flavour it can get”. Probably a common joke in the 70’s.
