I think you may have remembered Piglets flavour a bit wrong (well it was a long time ago ) they were Smoky bacon or Pickled onion. I never really enjoyed them, because they were so fragile you always ended up with half a bag of bits, funny I can still imagine crunching on those funny little hollow things....
What about these:
Well whatever flavour they were, they were yummy I know what you mean about a bag full of bits though, these always used to end up as a bag full of crumbs too:What about these:

Apparently there was a petition to bring it back a few years ago, but Birds declided.

Nando's crisps. It says on their website that you can get them from all well known supermarkets, but I've checked sainsburys, morrisons, Tesco, and asda (shudder)and I can't get them anywhere. I used to be able to get them from my local sainsburys but they haven't stocked them in a nearly a year or so.
Crisps available at Ocado on offer £1.50 a large baghttps://www.ocado.com/webshop/getSearchProducts.do...

Anyone remember John Smith's Lager from the 80's ?

I'm afraid not, but didn't Courage do a Simmond's bitter? It wasn't very well liked IIRC. You could add Hofmeister and Skol to the list I suspect, and I haven't seren Harp for years, once everywhere, although a local pub still does Kaltenburg, which I'd not seen for a long time.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dssz1gS90lU
One sadly missed beer in Kent is Fremlins. Quite a distinctive taste, until it was bought by Whitbread, when it tasted like Whitbread. On the site of the brewery is now a shopping centre.
I remember Good'n'Crunchy crisps made by KP. A bit like Discos but thicker
Simmers Abernethy biscuits. Haven't seen them in years, they were like a sweet tasting digestive, not sure if they are still on sale

McEwans Lager. Was horrible chemical tasting stuff anyway.
Tennents SD Lager. This was a shortlived "smooth draught" lager. Consistency of something like John Smiths or a Scottish "heavy", but was actually a lager. I had one pint of it, that was enough. I don't remember seeing it for sale in the supermarket, only in pubs.
Kestrel Lager. Disappeared in the 80's but apparently it is going to be resurrected and sold in Tesco.
Youngers Tartan Special. Do you still get that? It was the kind of beer your granddad would drink. I seem to remember it being sold in my local 15 years ago, but I don't think they have it now.
