Things that were good, but not any more 11:27 - Oct 10 with 7122 viewswkj

Had a penguin today as part of lunch (we have no kitchen right now, so we're basically on packed lunch food for a few days). These are terrible vs what they once were. I know as time goes by they tweak recipes to cost cut in order to slow the effects of inflation on their price point but there is no way I should have just had a biscuit instead this time.

Please add to the list of things you feel qualify under the subject line so we can "have this discussion once again"

Mars milk drink. They quietly took the sugar out. No longer worth drinking.

Quality Street and Roses.

More recent and topical: McDonalds straws. Soggy cardboard and ruin whichever drink you have. I understand the plastic ones were recyclable, the new ones are not. Mad!

That was better when it was tied in with 'good' and 'ugly'.

Chocolate silk? We all have our fetishes I suppose, but the fact you'd have one for Killroy surprises me.

Films starring Robert DeNiro or Al Pacino.

Heat, 1996, was the last either were any good.

You must be looking forward to Brexit in order to make things great again?

My hobbies include being quiet during trips, clapping with songs, and diabetes.

I can’t include vesta curry (beef) because I’ve not had one since they were an exotic, expensive treat in the 1970s, but I suspect disappointment would hove into view. The first five I tried relatively recently when a friend at work brought in old fashioned food for his birthday. Great fun.

I miss Nutty bars.
For those you who don't know what that is, they had a creamy fudge caramel centre with peanuts stuck on the outside.

* not to be confused with the american nutty bar - different thing.

Couldn't agree with you more. In my opinion, the party was at its peak between 1983 and 1992.


1945 - 1951

Yes, I know that was a long time ago!

Women under 25.

One of the great things about getting older is that the women you're insanely attracted to also get older. And the younger ones tend to be beautiful but just don't seem as sexy anymore

It may be my brain lying to me and easing the cruel slow march towards death but I'm all for it.

Most chocolate, just too sickly and bitter now, thanks to the cocoa solids they use.

Also Johnson's Baby lotion - since they changed the formula, it's sticky and hard to use. Now use the Boots own brand.

They have taken the parabens out (whatever they are) and even the smell is different. People been complaining about it on their website!

I've literally just eaten a penguin and thought it was delightful.

The biscuit part crumbled delightfully while the creamy part was like chocolate silk.

Not sure what you're on about lad!
