Too many to fucking list.

Crunchie nuggets, they were fucking gold, then got discontinued and replaced with this shitty crunchie rock which doesnt even taste half as good.

Old cadburys milk chocolate creme eggs, KRAFT replaced them with a shitty american style chocolate

outsourcing dairy milk being made in poland, creates a distinct flavor thing too. so RIP DAIRY MILK

I find all cereal to be totally tasteless now. I think they removed all the sugar the same time they took the toys out.

I always crave a few bowls of sugary cereal when I've had a drink at home but nothing on the shelf really fits the bill anymore.

Cinnamon grahams are probably closest

Does anyone remember a type of chew that was similar to a Fruittella but had a sherbert sort of thing mixed in with the pieces? They came in foil and were stacked side by side instead of stacked on top of each other like you normally find in chew sweets.

one vivid memory I have growing up is sitting in the back of a Vauxhall Cavalier in a BP petrol station forecourt on a red hot summer day.

Pot Noodles are now so shit. When they reduced the ingredients, mainly reduction in salt, the flavour just never seemed right. They were supposed to be unhealthy trash food, no one buys a pot noodle and thinks about their health or nutritional content.
