    What's the obsession with Lucky Charms? They're foul things. Even when I can get them for $2 I think they're overpriced.

    These bad boys.



    ADORED them as a kid but there's not a single trace of them anymore :(

    Fresca.
    It was a can of fizzy drink, which tasted exactly the same way that I imagine antifreeze would, and despite it being on sale for many years in my youth, every single can I ever saw had a bit of rust on it.

    Those little salty biscuity things shaped like fishes, not seen them in years, I used to like those chocolate covered pretzels but they are so hard to find nowadays.

    Fish-shaped snacks are still available, I saw them at a playgroup on Tuesday.

    Meanwhile, in my head...

    Do you remember - chalk hearts melting on a playground wall?
    Do you remember - dawn escapes from moon washed college halls?
    Do you remember - that cherry blossom in the market square?
    Do you remember - I thought it was confetti in our hair?
    By the way, didn't I break your heart?
    Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart.
    So sorry, I never meant to break your heart.
    But you broke mine...

    Can you still get Dime bars?

    Pacers were, indeed, the bomb. Wash them down with a can of Quatro.

    Just back from Tesco and noticed Hersheys Reese's "Shell".

    You put it on your ice cream and it "Freezes in Seconds"

    Google it! It's look disgustingly good!

    Sorry not really sorry. It was doing my head in, so I had to pass it on like the runes in Night of the Demon.

    Nowt wrong with a bit of Marillion. The flat we've been staying at in copenhagen this week has all their fish-era cds in it. The missus banned me from playing them. :(

    Bizarrely, a few nights ago I dreamt about queing for fish tickets and bumping into him for a chat. I blame the cds here.

    On topic, I also mourn the passing of Texan bars. Their brief re-release a few years back made me very happy. I even bought a box of them to tide me over once it stopped.

    Golden Nuggets were 6 year-old Jeepers' amphetamine. Washed down with a quarter bag of lemon-flavoured granulated sugar from the sweetshop.

    Tudor Specials Roast Beef And Pickle crisps. If I won the lotto I'd pay half my winnings for a box.

    The original Ringo crisps, either cheese and onion or salt and vinegar. But mainly cheese and onion. They were the dogs

    Anyone ever have a can of Simpsons lemonade before?

    I remember forcing my mum to buy me the only visible can in Asda because it came in a clear can and had a handful of tiny yellow spherical bits of jelly inside aswell. Really odd and I've never heard anyone mention them before . Can't seem to find Amy trace of them on t'internet either.

    Findus Crispy Pancakes...

    Although I suspect that there's a Co-Op, somewhere on the Isle Of Wight, which seems to be stuck in a 70's timewarp, that probably still has some in the bottom of the freezer.

    I remember that! It was rank, and as you drink it the jelly would make it feel like you're drinking frogspawn (or what I would imagine that's like).
