Alan Cynic Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 cremola foamWhen I saw the thread title this is what came to mind! I'm surprised it was recent enough for you to remember! (I though it went belly up in the 80s..like myself!).I miss all the 'dangerous' stuff...lucky tatties with throat-jamming toys, corn flakes with free submarines, smoking canies(sp?), tonibell miniballs (ice cream in a plastic football...well it was dangerous when you ended up slide tackling folk on concrete pitches!).Plus, as a drink....Blue Lagoon....I liked the stuff, but it got banned because it was the same colour as petrol, and the powers-that-be assumed that kids would be knocking back gallons of Shell and BP by mistake o_O ?( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psydoll Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 And as for beef and mustard brannigans they were a meal on there own.I'm almost certain you still get those quite widely as well, I vividly remember stinking up my girlfriend's flat and invoking her rage with them this very year. I'm vaguely certain that The Moorings sells them behind the bar non? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue Denim.. Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 I don't think the Moorings sells Beef and Mustard crisps. They still do Space Raiders (all 3 flavours). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pogofish Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Cremola Foam fans may be heartened to know that after an appeal on BBC Scotland a few weeks back, they have successfuly located a tin of the stuff & have sent it off for analysis! So, maybe sometime soon, we will see it for sale again & hopefully, the company won't lose the recipie!In the meantime, how about one of my St Denis tarts: This thread inspired me to dig-out my grannie's old recipie book & try my hand at some. Not had one for years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Gold Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 It'll be a bit strange having a recipe based on a 9 year old minimum tub of Cremola foam...Wispas are gone now, as is the not bad but not that special Snickers Crunch.Ah, and lemon polos and giant smarties.

Kai Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 What about Vice-Versas? A crunchy white chocolate shell that was dark on the inside and, well, vice-versa.Also, McCain Pizza Rollers; tiny dough balls filled with pizza topping. They tasted fine but were withdrawn because they got so hot in the centre, people kept severely burning themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogofish Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 It'll be a bit strange having a recipe based on a 9 year old minimum tub of Cremola foam...Better still, they suggested it may even have been found at Dounreay! o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cynic Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Sorry to be pedantic but it was the same colour as "esso blue" paraffin, petrol isnt blue!!I sit corrected.....no petrol head me....I walk mostly. I still should've remembered though, as I have fond memories of swallowing pints of the stuff when my mechanic dad taught me to siphon petrol as a nipper.

Mr.Mike Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 honeycomb yorkie's, the ones in the golden wrapper, and um bungo.just thinking, perhaps the disappearance of um bungo is related to some form of U.N trade sanction enforced on the congo (or whatever it's called now)?
