    What childhood food do you miss or still indulge in?

    I've started this as we were taking the US food thread off at a tangent.
    We were talking about breakfast cereals, golden syrup on Ready Brek, and Shreddies, Weetabix etc.
    Someone mentioned dippy eggs and soldiers - which I still have now and again!
    What do you remember that you don't see around anymore?
