Bring back one snack from your childhood

What about the shops that sold sweets by weight. "quarter of chocolate nibbles/rhubarb and custard/Choc Crumble please. I know there's some niche shops knocking about now, but the prices are shocking. You could go in with your measly pocket money back in the day, come out with a huge bag of sweets and still have a bit to spend.

Oh, and the shops that used to slice the cooked meat, and sell cream cakes and what not.

Miss all that.

I miss them so much :(

I've thought this for years then went to a wedding in Glasgow two years ago and popped out to a shop for a lighter or something and there they were, just a full box of them nonchalantly sitting there.

I bought as many packs as I could carry and took them back to the wedding only to be unfairly accused of being stoned and ruining my sister's day.
 
If you watch the Footage Detectives on TTVP ever Sunday or record it 5 pm on Sundays these oldie goldie snacks are a feature at the beginning of the show etc....
