Hey there, fellow 90s kids! Let's take a trip down memory lane and talk about the sweet treats we loved back in the day. From curly wurlys to parma violets, the 90s were a time of sugary bliss.
The UK was especially blessed with an amazing array of sweets that sadly, are no longer with us. I mean, who could forget the legendary Wagon Wheels of the 90s, which were basically the size of a manhole cover? Those things were epic!
We also had Flying Saucer sweets, which were like little packets of heaven filled with sherbet and a surprise inside. And let's not forget the iconic Space Dust, which was like eating a tiny piece of the moon. Okay, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration, but you get the idea!
Must Read
The 90s were also a time when supermarkets like Tesco and Sainsbury's would have these amazing pickle jars filled with all sorts of goodies. You could scoop out as many sweets as you wanted and pay by weight - it was like being a kid in a candy store!
Sweets We Loved and Lost
But, as with all good things, some of these sweets had to come to an end. The discontinued list is a long one, folks, and it includes fravourites like Butterfinger BB's, Crystal Clear M&M's, and the utterly amazing Peanut Butter Cup sweets. I mean, what were they thinking, discontinuing those?! It's a Brit tragedy, if you ask me!

And then there were the Opal Fruits, which were like raining skittles from the sky - so juicy and full of flavour! They were rebranded as Skittles in the late 90s, but let's be real, they were never the same. I mean, who needs a boring old skittle when you could have an Opal Fruit?
The kwargs Texan bars were another firm favourite that vaporized into thin air. They were like a taste sensation - a mix of peanut butter, aramel, and texan 266 sauce. Sounds weird, tastes amazing - trust me on that one, buddy!
The Legacy Lives On
But even though these sweets are no longer with us, their legacy lives on in the hearts (and stomachs) of 90s kids everywhere. We can still dream about the good old days, when a 10p mix-up could buy us a lifetime of happiness. Okay, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration, but you get the idea - those were the days!

And who knows, maybe we'll even get to see the return of some of these legendary sweets - a kid can dream, right? So, the next time you're feeling down, just remember - you're never too old for a sweet treat (or two, or three...), and the 90s will always be with us, in spirit, and in our hearts - and stomachs!
