Adam's Ale - I've not heard that for yearsI removed the shell from my racing snail, but now it's more sluggish than ever.1

A._Badger said:Less a product that has vanished than an entire type that has been ruined. Both Waitrose and Morrisons used to sell 'premium' sausages with a high meat content (I suspect they might have come from the same source). A while ago both were reformulated with something called 'pea flour' as a substitute for breadcrumbs. A lot of other premium sausages have gone the same way.
Whether this was done for reasons of cost or (as I suspect) to appease all the misguided people who think 'gluten free' means 'better' I have no idea but it has resulted in the sausages having a really nasty, rubbery texture. It's now hard to find a good quality sausage that hasn't been similarly spoiled.
At least my local butcher hasn't followed suit - yet!0 -
Forgot to mention this one: bottles of Knorr Concentrated Chicken Stock. We used to always keep a bottle of it in the fridge and it was brilliant for adding to home cooking. You could just add a spoonful to a dish for two.

I used to use it until I saw how little chicken was in it so now I make stock and freeze but I know what you mean, it was really convenient.
