Snack Sandwich (the one that's got a kinda "Rich Tea" biscuit inside it):



I also recall at one point seeing another variant of the "Snack" range, many a year ago... in a magenta/burgundy coloured wrapper?

At any rate, I thought these had fallen by the wayside, but turns out they're big business after you've had... er... a swim!


I LOVE these! They only seem to sell them in Ireland, though I do remember a few years ago when they were around in England for a bit. I always buy tonnes to bring home with me when I go over!

Are you thinking of the waffer snack in the purple and pink wrapper? It's sortof like a timeout.

TotoMimo, I have come to the conclusion that you like to discuss food. A lot.

Which isn't a bad thing :biggrin:


Food is my absolute passion (beyond videogame development/illustration), and I could talk food all day! Ironic that I suffer from a restrictive type of anxiety-based eating disorder... I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles, right?

Oh, man... cookies...

Speaking of which, I thought "Bubbaloo" were discontinued until I saw them in the Spar the other day. Same as Caramacs.



I reckon the Spar is like the last bastion that forgotten snacks go to in order to avoid extinction.

Spar is like Madagascar.

Lol same here. I would also like to know if Pingui exists in UK as well. Anybody have any clues about this?

EDIT - Apparently you can buy it in the UK from http://www.backhaus.co.uk/ but the postage costs are massive. £8.30 for up to 9kg. (But still cheaper than going to Germany)

I was on a night out recently, and there is a Spar near the bus stop on the way home. I woke up the next day with like 4 Caramacs in my bag. :lol: I must've bought them to 'stock up', I thought I'd struck gold!

Haha, brilliant!! The thing is, I'm not even fond of Caramacs, but because they were there I HAD to buy them! Why do we do that?


:love:
Tesco crisps. They vanished along with Tesco. Then, one day...
IT WILL CONTINUE

Because biting into them brings a feeling of pure nostalgia. :biggrin: At least for me anyway!

They sell these, and many more varieties of Kinder in France where my family live, but I've never seen these ones in Britain.

They do these ones like the Kinder Maxi but with cereal, it's AMAZING.

Tbh I don't think anyone likes them. They're like the original Pokemon games; they were rubbish, but nostalgia demands we buy them.
