Which sweets did you used to enjoy as a child, which are no longer available. For me it has to be Dinosour eggs and space dust.

Texan Bar, always a winner if you had a wobbly tooth and could do with 50p.

Some of the ones from there are not quite the same as the original versions. The white chocolate skull things are filled with a solid fondant, they used to have a liquid / jelly filling, for example.

Always found a bowl of dry Cornflakes were good for that. Was a £1 for me though.
