Which discontinued items of the past would you like to see return?

I'm sure I can think of a few others, but I currently have a craving for a Honeycombe Yorkie. I cannae see them anywhere.

I never even saw a bloody wispa. i searched high and low for the damn things and found no sign on them anywhere. grrrr.

Kit Kat Caramac. Legend.

Spangles.

Nestle chocolate is gash now. I can't eat a Kit-Kat because they taste waxy and bitter.

It's because KitKats are made using the tears of orphans. Since my office at this fine institution is opposite a Student union filled with idiots who have no sense of rational debate, I buy Nestle products on principle. And Coca cola. And then I eat whale whenever I can just for good measure. Someone has to balance out their boycotts, after all.

Anyway, bring back top hats.

So you have a top hat that pops up? That's the pinnacle of chic to me gav, I have to say.

And Tab Clear - it was like shite but my god it was transparent and that's what mattered.

Hmm, just tap it with his cane and he's ready to step out. There's a double entendre somewhere in that. If you're going to revive top hats (which should include stovepipe hats also, the thinking man's hat of choice) then can we bring tails, waxed moustaches and muttonchops back also? Make for a stunning combo let me tell you.

I'm ashamed to say I can't pull off the facial foliage look, but definitely tails. Tails are fab.

Nothing dodgy about that statement.

Chic it is. Dates from the 1950s. Was used famously on stage by one Stanley Baxter.

So there you go.
