    Chocolate covered pretzels, where did they go? And Willy Wonka nerds, runts and everlasting gobstoppers. I think they were banned, can only get them in the usa now 

    I remember those runts and gobstoppers by Willy Wonka. I can't see why they got banned :-/

    Another thing I miss were those magnetic marbles from around 1990. All the corner shops sold them, guaranteed. Now they're pretty much extinct unless you get lucky on eBay.

    diet vanilla coke

    i was told this was discontinued due to the amount of vanilla used making it made it very environmentally unfriendly.

    it was luch though, i loved it so much that the year it came out i opened my birthday present from my sister and it was a case of it:yum:

    So no teddy grahams either? :(;)

    The best thing I could find is a digestive biscuit. I read in a cookbook published in the UK a crust for a pie (dessert type of pie) made from digestive biscuits that looked similar to making a graham cracker pie crust so maybe they could be used for smores too... I dont know though, I've never had a digestive biscuit.

    :yes:

    The British equivalent of a graham cracker is a digestive biscuit.

    No, you can defiantly still get those! They sell them in a post office near me, and in the corner shop and the sweet shops.

    Quite a few food products.

    Refreshers & Blackjack drinks
    Cream soda hubba bubba
    I think there was a lollypop that had a cola or cherry outside and a chocolate filling, it had the crackling sweets in it as well. I think it was called a bang lolly

    I worked in a Bank in London Bridge years ago (office not retail), anyway, I used to sometimes bring a can of cream soda into work in the mornings to nurse a hangover with the sugar....one day a senior manager called me in outraged as she thought I was drinking lager at my desk - she apologised when I explained it was merely - cream soda....
