21 extinct snacks that'll give you childhood flashbacks

9 June 2017 at 9:30 am

Corn Pops with limited edition Take That sticker. 1994 was a golden year.

They marketed this product so hard! There were stickers, comics and little plastic thingies to put on your bike spokes!

Milkybar choo. Exquisitely weird.

Geri Halliwell flavour Walkers. Just kidding, they were cheese & chives.

Plastic cup drinks. 15p and worth the wait in the dinner queue.

I want a Trio and I want one now.

Secret bar. Tasted like a walnut whip. It just wasn’t meant to be.

Just some legit alcohol kids were allowed to drink.

Prawn cocktail Wotsits.

Mini polos.

Cadbury’s snow flake.

No hedgehogs were used in the making of these crisps!

RIP Joosters. Taken too soon.

Dweebs.

Gino, oh Gino Ginelli! Not tutti frutti though, it was minging.

How can a pancake be crispy? Ew.

PK chewing gum no longer haunts our shelves. Came in liquorice flavour. Enough said.

Bird’s Ice Magic. Went hard on ice cream. More of a game than a snack.

Frufoo yogurts. Had little collectable space characters in the centre which were every child’s incentive to nag the hell out of their mum to buy them.

Bendicks’ attempt to make after dinner mints more ‘everyday’. Didn’t work. Never mind, Bendicks.

Flipz. Pretzels covered in chocolate. Had that sweet/salty thing going on. It worked.

Reminisce about the good old days with this collection of discontinued snacks from the 80s and 90s.

From Geri Halliwell-flavoured crisps (???) to alcohol for kids, there’s some real good ones in this bunch.

Enjoy!
