Products of yesteryear you would like to see return

[westozfalcon]

This is similar to the 'Whatever happened to' thread that was active for a while but I was wondering what products there were that you used to buy in the shops that you'd like to see back on shop shelves. Here's a handful of ones for mine:-

Uncle Sam deodorant spray
Freedent chewing gum
Leed lemonade
Red Rooster's 'Chicketti'
VB and Fosters 750ml cans
Ipana toothpaste
Mello Yellow soft drink

Don't know if it was ever sold over there but a few years back SunPat (the peanut butter people) did a cheddar cheese spread in a jar. I loved that...was similar consistancy to Dairylea but with a much more grown-up taste of mature cheddar.

Saw them in Big W before Christmas

Candy floss on a stick...if you have a different name for it I mean the pink spun sugar you get a fairgrounds etc. I know the sticks are probably extremely dangerous but a polythene bag of it just doesn't have the same childhood delight and magic as trying to eat it from a stick and getting covered in it

When I look around the shops there are a few things I could have done without being brought back...

Flares
Platform shoes
Cheesecloth
Leggings (especially in much larger sizes)
Leg warmers

They brought them back a while ago but only as a temporary thing. I bought stacks but now they're gone again sadly... Nothing better than 2 bushies with a slab of butter in between... mmm...
