Walkers Worcester Sauce crisps, don't taste strong anymore. Pah, complete let down.
It was more Slalom Lager than Skol or Fosters when we were foraging for our first beers!
Malvern RiderIt’s not Terry’s, it’s a soft palm-oily shiteball made in the shape of a nectarine.

I had a Terry’s Chocolate Satsuma the other Christmas. Not only are they the size of a large marble these days, but the cheeky bastards have made one side of each segment concave so you’re getting even less chocolate than it appears.
Yes, horrible texture and you no longer get the satisfying core in the middle, just a pathetic little spindle.
Proper grapefruit. Most places now only sell watered down pink or red.
Ha, so 70s! Grapefruit doused overnight in sugar to make it vaguely edible, with a glacé cherry on top. 😂
turns out he didn’t fix it for children’s dreams to come true at all.
Apart from one wee boy who got to milk a cow whilst blindfold
Turns out it was perchy, and he's already replied in this thread. Small world.
These used to be dangerous! Now the flavour has been dumbed down for the modern taste for the insipid.
Try using marmite as a dip with twiglets for a fuller flavour
Fosters has always been cooking lager, surely?
Can I also add the reborn Ringos to the list of crisp-related disappointments. A tasteless shadow of their former selves...
On the flip side, these bad boys still have enough salt and vinegar to turn your lips white!!
Blue Rasberryade no longer induces a hallucinatory trip, nor is your entire digestive tract stained purple for weeks.
However apparently Burger King have got you covered...

These are still up to scratch too
Sorry, didnt mean to shout up there. My iPad has taken to defaulting to bold.
I'm still looking for somewhere that sell cans of Breaker - for the ultimate test I'm going to pour it into a glass and try to taste it. It will be nasty but I will not care
Ahh were you on the show too Perchy?
He fixed it for me to learn how to peel a bannana with my mouth while blindfolded too. It took bloody ages, and by the end of it the bannana was just mush and I got it all over my face. Tasted nice though. 😋
Too much? 😁
Can’t argue with that, popping one into your mouth and feeling it dissolve away leaving the sherbet hasn’t lost its charm since I was a kid.
Note to self: must buy a bag of sherbet flying saucers on Saturday.
Nah, they're just cardboard with sherbet inside. Might as well cut open the saucer, pour out the sherbet and ditch the cardboard part.
In which vein, sherbet fountains are now plastic! WTAF

Do they still leak everywhere owing to being sealed only with a licorice stick and some careful folding?
I bought a Mars from Boots and the man on the till held it for a moment after scanning it, looked at me and said "they're not what they used to be, are they?"
I nodded in agreement and we went our separate ways to ponder the disappointments of life.
And we now have walnut-less whips...
...which is actually great for me who doesn't like nuts.
Not in the S&V squares/Brannigans level of kick, but these deliver a satisfying tongue-tingle.

Also a bargain at 72p for 6 packs.

Yeah, but there's about 20 crisps in the pack.

See above.
In any case,
What happened to:
a) Nibbits Wheelz (onion and vinegar) and
b) Really Ruthless Crisps?
In a strange twist of fate I'm sat in the Moselle valley at the moment, had some early holidays here as kids and we were all excited by seeing the train going past all the time, now I'm just hoping the bloody train packs in soon and doesn't start too early tomorrow.
Fosters lager. Used to be the teenage connoisseurs choice.
Thunderbird "Wine" and Mad Dog were our go-tos for a cheap thrill as a teenager. Not missed 🤢
