Rubisco is totally right, WTF did they get rid of those? They disappeared from most shops back in the late 80’s but my local Somerfield used to sell them thru till about ‘95. I am now forced to eat real curry made with proper chicken and stuff….

Crispy Pancakes have been dead to me for years, ever since they stopped doing the chicken curry ones.

“Newcastle Productions, owners of Findus”, no they don’t own Findus, they just produce and distribute all theFindus products in Britain, The real owners of the Findus brand are Lion Capital.

Ah, crispy pancakes, the height of 70’s sophistication, not only did they taste like shit, they also burnt the roof off your mouth, goodbye you vile hellspawn.

Mike, rest assured you can still nip down to your financially secure Tesco’s and pick up a tray of sushi before rushing home to scoff it on your DFS chaise longue. Make sure you don’t get wasabi on the cushions, unless you’ve got the stain protection in which case go crazy.
