Johnnies long life (in foil pack) all day breakfast potato fry up - not seen it for years.

Also microwave kebabs - filth, but perfection when stoned.

Look in the halal section of your nearest giga-sized supermarket.

There are chicken tikka ones as well that are actually reeeeally nice.

And yes. Drug foods.

IIRC, it's crispy pancakes (pref minced beef'n'onion, but cheese would *sigh* do) with spaghetti hoops and potato waffles (or oven chips). An occasional Nom, a definite WIN. But one I hope not to pass to my son, as it is shit food.

Mmm. Might have to try Poptarts next, it must be about 15 years since I had one.

What supermarkets still have them? What section are they found in? Cereals?

The only memories of Findus Crispy Pancakes I have were how bland they tasted and how hot the "sauce" could be.

Oh man, in my teenage years I used to eat Crispy Pancakes at least once a week, although back then I wasn't as keen on waffles so it was usually mashed potato and (Sainsburys) noodles as the companions on the plate.

It's the air trapped inside getting hot that causes the seepage problem.

Tesco definitely have them as I bought some just before xmas. In ours they are on the same aisle as the cereals, along the end by the alpen bars and stuff like that.

All of them.

In my Tesco it's in the row with the cereal bars and crisps. Assuming Tesco have a standard shop layout, it's in the rows opposite the cereal, one row over from the beer and fizzy drinks bit.

Don't burn them, or they'll burn you back. Think of them as little pockets of sugary napalm.

Right. I managed to get hold of some chavtastic Pop Tarts. The more or less local Tesco did not have them, probably a bit small and too posh, but luckily you can always trust ASDA on these sort of things.

Results: 3 out of 3 children do NOT prefer Pop Tarts. It was difficult even make some of them to try them.

Impressions: Bland and sweet with extra sugar on top. That jam in the middle has not seen any fruit. Like a giant bad hot Jammy Dodger. Sloppily made too, that sugar icing and hundreds and thousands were all over the place.
