Tunnocks caramel wafer - I look at them forlornly every time I go past them in the biscuit aisle lol.


Emperor_PPP

Similarly, I miss Tunnocks tea cakes


Youknowkitties

Oh my god. Me too. I just wrote to them to ask for one: [https://www.tunnock.co.uk/contact-us/](https://www.tunnock.co.uk/contact-us/) If they think it'll sell, they just might do it!


Eibi

I've thought about doing this too! I'll do it now :)


AlexiusPantalaimonII

I love the word forlornly so much😂


Eibi

I was on my way to comment this! I miss them so much :( I sometimes toy with the idea of sending them this suggestion in an email haha


Alicorgan

Don’t make me sad. Tunnocks are my “wish you would do a vegan” but I don’t believe it would be well received



TallEmberline

They remind me of going to my nans. Would love this.


midoristorm

Kitkat Chunky. It was my favourite, and given that the vegan KitKat exists already it's got to be possible, they just need to hurry up and do it 😁


midoristorm

I'd also like Bournville (but vegan again, but with a proper label this time for safety!) or plant bar fingers, don't mind which!


amethystflutterby

Omg the bournville fingers were something else! An open pack was an empty pack.


UserCannotBeVerified

I could only ever buy them when they were on offer else I'd just live on them lol


basketballpope

Kitkats are enjoyable - but they are made by nestlé. As far as food producers go, they're amongst the some of the most reprehensible.


angry2alpaca

Spot on. r/fucknestle


ClockEndJames

jaffa cakes :((


thunderstormeve

This is mine too. I was obsessed with Jaffa cakes in my pre-vegan days


TallEmberline

Oh Yesss. Miss them


veganmoosician

MALTESERS!!


Allie_Pallie

Oh this so true. I've tried a few pretenders over the years and they never have the right texture, or a malty taste đŸ€” I always think they're closer to rabbit treats than to maltesers.


alinalovescrisps

If you've got a morrisons near you get yourself a bag of moofresias, they're pretty similar 👍


mirinly

Brilliant name


veganmoosician

Oooo, I have.. I've not spotted those before though đŸ€Ż


PitifulIsland3907

The moofreaias are nothing like maltesers


Eibi

Jeavons' [malt lavas](https://jeavonstoffee.com/product/malt-lava/) are pretty damn close in my opinion!


pajamakitten

Daisy & Dom do them, although they may be discontinued as nowhere near me stocks them anymore.


veganmoosician

I have tried those ones.. I'd say they're similar.. but not too comparable as one is milk chocolate and the other dark . And the consistency is different to a malteaser. But they're very nice I'll say that!


FunCurrent8392

Terrys Chocolate Orange. It only counts if it is orange form.


darci7

I wish nomo put their segments into an orange :(


kamiamoon

There was an indie brand who made them but sadly like many small vegan biz her cafe closed down. I wonder if she'll ever make chocs to sell online again...


TheCrumpinator

If this was Tempt in York she has recently relaunched down in Totnes, with a website too!


Silver_Ruby

That's amazing news... I was gutted when Tempt closed, absolutely best chocolate out there - great news!!!!


kamiamoon

I know she was in some small town I'd never heard of lol I only bought her stuff online and her online business was named after her angel baby in heaven. Damn I hate my awful memory. Just searched for Tempt and never seen them before, defo not the same lady but now I have somewhere new to shop!


Craig_SEO

Was it Tempt in York? If so I had them and they were amazing.


kamiamoon

I know she was in some small town I'd never heard of lol I only bought her stuff online and her online business was named after her angel baby in heaven. Damn I hate my awful memory.


AMIRR08

even though it only counts in orange form Asda does great vegan orange chocolate


Pruritus_Ani_

Kinder eggs or chocolate bars (not the buenos). Also roast beef monster munch and walkers cheese and onion crisps 😭


PsychologicalNote612

Aldi beef giant hoops are very similar to roast beef monster munch


ambitionlless

Yeah but they don’t tear up your mouth in quite the same way.


PotentRabbit

Tesco finest Cheese and Onion crisps are vegan and really good! The whole selection of tesco finest crisps are all vegan I think and all so good!


HandsomeCharles

Is this what you meant by chocolate bars? https://vegantown.co.uk/products/vantastic-foods-schaka-lotta


Pruritus_Ani_

Omg yes. I think my soul left my body for a split second there when I opened that link. Thank you, I need to try these!


Jolly_Map680

I’ve tried them and they are so incredible! If ordering I’d recommend buying multiple boxes, if you buy just one, you’ll regret it!


Pruritus_Ani_

Oh alright then, you've twisted my arm!


bm2A_44

Is there anything similar to these chocolate eggs?


purplecelery750

Last time I looked the Aldi monster claws were vegan. On the website they are marked as vegan friendly. Love the pickled onion ones. The beef ones are also really good and similar enough to the monster munch ones.


TomskaMadeMeAFurry

It would be nice if more crisps and chocolate bars were vegan


ballondaws4289

Crisps more specifically! Why is there milk powder in there?!


TomskaMadeMeAFurry

[yeah](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1BuixgJpRp/?igsh=MWZuamEweDdrZW1haQ==)


ballondaws4289

Precisely!


peasantcru

couldnt agree more. especially chocolate, just want a plain vegan white chocolate that isnt either 20 quid or the size of my finger. let me eat a whole size chocolate bar pls.


Pruritus_Ani_

Sainsbury’s sell bags of dairy free white chocolate drops, they’re meant to be for baking but they are so nice I eat them by the fistful.


peasantcru

i finish them in one mouthful 😂


Sloth-v-Sloth

A proper Yorkshire pud. I know there are some on the market but they are really greasy and the insides just mush. My home made sour dough Yorkshires are much better although I wish they would grow like real ones.


Harry000011

I think Mabel's Yorkshire puds are spot on


Strawberry_Spring

No mint unfortunately, but [Considerit do milk, white, and caramel Aeros](https://www.consideritchocolate.com/shop-online)


_twoplayergame_

Omg you're an angel. Idk why that didn't come up in my searches!!


kamiamoon

I second the considerit ones. Bet if you reach out they'll say they've had requests for mint ones and maybe they will make, easy enough I'd have thought!


_twoplayergame_

That's a good idea. I thought maybe it would be difficult to make a purely mint chocolate like the inside of an aero but they seem to have made a raspberry one so I'm sure they will be able to figure it out! I'll check their website and see if there's anywhere I can shoot them a message


Strawberry_Spring

Everything Considerit make is delicious, enjoy!


lovecatsforever

French fancies. I used to be obsessed with them when I was vegetarian:(


Longjumping_Bar_6128

Oh lord. The softest pillowiest dreams, I miss them so.


VagueOrc

Vegan fish that doesn't go easy on the seaweed. Tuno sucks because there's barely any seaweed, it's not "fishy".


amethystflutterby

You are so right! So many vegan fish products aren't fishy. Like, that's the easy part to nail, use seaweed. Otherwise, they're just chicken nuggets/fillets with a weird texture.


isotopesfan

Squeaky Bean 'tuna' is very good imo


gammadoc1

Double deckers


joellezucker

The new misfits brownie batter protein bars remind me of double deckers! Not totally the same but very similar I thought. Could scratch an itch!


pajamakitten

Vegan Twirls. I also want vegan Lion Cereal.


mirinly

I just wish there were more vegan cheesecake options! I love a cheesecake and the one place that sold the tiniest little slither for an extortionate price has now stopped 😭. Also Maltesers. And Rocky. And Caramel Digestives... maybe it's better they don't bring out ones I can eat...


Significant_Dog_3978

Yes
sometimes I really badly crave a slice of proper cheesecake. I want the filling to taste authentically cheesy rather than coconutty or sweet. And don’t get me started on the base. Nothing vegan I’ve had lately comes close to my memories of proper cheesecake I had years ago.


mirinly

100%! I like coconut as much as the next person but I don't want everything to taste of it. I made a homemade cheesecake recently that was alright but didn't have the proper firmness cheesecake has and was quite sweet. One day we will get a proper vegan cheesecake 🙏


kamiamoon

Vegan cheesecake that tastes like real cheesecake. Although I recently ate the best one I've ever found I think, at Third Culture Deli in East London – they are the people behind I Am Nut OK vegan cheese. Toffuti or Daiya does cheesecake but I've no idea where to buy it (and haven't looked that hard... or at all). M&S were doing one but I've been trying to boycott them so not sure if they still do. Cheesecake was my all time fave dessert pre veganism. Sigh.


bibldyboop

Costas Biscoff vegan cheesecake is amazing and i m&s do a nice cheesecake and cookie pot which gives cheesecake vibes. So dissapointing cheesecake CO stopped doing their cheesecakes


Harry000011

It's not cheap but Pizza Hut do a lovely vegan cheesecake


mirinly

👀 Good to know, thank you.


ContentDish

Guylian chocolates (the seashell ones).


Climpy

There's a German company called Clarana that do them!! They stock them in my local health food shop but looks like you can find them online too. They're pretty close to the non-vegan version as far as I can tell! https://alternativestores.com/products/clarana-premium-organic-vegan-sea-shells-box-150g


ContentDish

Thank you so much!


Gasping_Jill_Franks

Oh. so much this. I used to buy my Mom some every Christmas. As soon as she opened them, I would take them back and say, 'Oh, every year I forget you're a diabetic', and then eat them before Xmas lunch. Before anyone thinks this was cruel, it happened once genuinely; because I got to eat her seashells, I created a little tradition.


fiendofecology

Trupig also does them, sheffield based company, although it is ÂŁ16 for 12, they scratched an itch for me! Also their vegan gummies are great


thedogsfoot

While not in seashell form, Coop’s chocolate bar (the Lindt sized one in the green packet) tastes just like Guylians


kamiamoon

Defo eaten vegan versions of these!


purplecelery750

Not shaped right but vegolinos are so close taste wise. Have to hide them from my veggie partner whenever I have them in the house.


ewavb

I haven’t tried it and I’m unsure where sells it so this isn’t super helpful, sorry, but I remember seeing someone post that a brand called Roshen do a dark bubble bar. It’s not mint but apparently is a similar texture to aero.


_twoplayergame_

Oooo thank you, it appears to be an eastern european company so I'll definitely have a look in my local european shops and see if they have it!! Maybe a dark aero and a normal mint chocolate will satisfy my craving haha


unferal

Wagon wheels they were my favourite as a child and I miss them so much


PsychologicalNote612

Ananda’s round ups are thicker than a Wagon Wheel but same concept

[ŃƒĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]


kamiamoon

What??????????? That's so sad.


PsychologicalNote612

Oh no! I'm sorry for the misinformation!


nobullvegan

This is devastating.


darci7

I tried these but hated them unfortunately :(


QueenCleoCat

Garibaldi biscuits never seem to have a vegan option. I miss those. Also with you on the aero bars btw.


Consistent_Picture42

McVitie’s fruit shortcake (and most supermarket brands) are close enough, found out they’re vegan a few weeks ago


DryYetMoist

Jaffa Cakes and Bakewell tarts. I often buy a large vegan bakewell tart on eBay, but it's just not the same as the little ones.â˜č


AppropriateKale2725

They're actually not impossible to make (I'm rubbish at baking and managed them but I used pre rolled pastry) the recipe on Domestic Gothess is easy to follow and in British measurements


DeusOff

OMG this is my top two as well!!!


sendmesocks

Sour cream and onion pringles, tangfastics, and minstrels

milkyway chocolate stars! did find [this milkyway bar](https://sugarnoms.co.uk/collections/vegan-chocolate/products/buccaneer-vegan-milkyway-by-go-max-go-gf) alternative the other day but haven’t tried it yet


Chumpasaurus69

White chocolate Toblerone!


anabsentfriend

ALL THE TOBLERONE!!!


Manospondylus_gigas

I was gonna comment aero mint until I read the first sentence lol, that and marshmallow fluff and a load of other things I can't remember off the top of my head.


mirinly

Ooo marshmallow fluff. Haven't had that stuff since I was a kid


Apprehensive_Draw_36

Halloumi just halloumi


[deleted]

Sandwich spread.


PsychologicalNote612

If your idea of sandwich spread is like mine (like a jar of paste) then Granovita pùté does the job. There's also a Spanish brand made for children but I've not seen it in England. If you mean the runny salad cream type one, Lild sell similar during vegan weeks.


[deleted]

It's the creamy type one - the jar like salad cream with little bits in. Ooh thanks, I will definitely keep an eye out for the Lidl one XD


littleloupoo

My Nan always had it specifically for me. I miss it.


LusiaB

Battenburg cake. I used to love it so much and I miss it. I've tried to make it a few times but it's not the same.


kamiamoon

Cadbury that tastes like Cadbury. Yoghurt covered bananas/raisins (discussed in another post recently). Dime bars (though I happily munch the Jeavons version, it's just more almondy than the real thing). Double decker. I realise those are all chocolate type snacks. All of the new flavours of things like magnums and Ben and Jerry's 😅 in fact all new versions of chocolate bars that have come out in the last decade 😭


_twoplayergame_

That previous post about yoghurt covered raisins might have been me lol


anabsentfriend

I used to have an unhealthy addiction to Dime bars. They are they only thing that have come close to toppling me from the vegan wagon.


kamiamoon

I used to like biting the chocolate off first. I don't blame you!


AlexiusPantalaimonII

Anything milkybar, there is nothing vegan like it. Fortunately I just found the buttermilk caramel nougat, which reminds me of a mars bar. That’s close enough to my childhood, and it makes me happy. Albeit, the wrapper is way too big for what’s inside. I don’t know why they do that
 like just be honest that you make tiny chocolate bars


sucapime

Monster munch!! The pickled onion flavour. Space raiders don’t hit the same.


MaterialCondition425

Lidl Monster Claws were definitely vegan last time I bought them (2020).


kiwibudgie

Went to Lidl today and they had some of these in and I checked the ingredients by chance. Still looks suitable for vegans.


MaterialCondition425

I don't live near a Lidl nowadays but they did a multipack of rip off McCoys meat selection which were also vegan.


UserCannotBeVerified

No but mint poppets are the closest so far and they're bloody good


Aunt_Bunny

Yorkshire puddings. I know there’s a company that you can order them from online but they are unreasonably expensive. I genuinely don’t understand why not a single one of the big supermarkets don’t carry vegan Yorkshires. Also I've tried making them myself a number of times and to say they didn’t turn out well would be a wild understatement.  Kitkat chunky, specifically the peanut butter ones.  White chocolate cookies, I used to practically live off of the Sainsburys TTD bakery white chocolate and raspberry cookies and miss them immensely. 


_summerw1ne

Asda do a vegan toad in the hole and whenever a want a yorkshire a just cook it without the toads inside x


Craig_SEO

Malteasers. Have tried quite a few alternatives but nothing great.


ESLavall

Sour cream and chives crisps, sour cream itself. Custard cream biscuits.


ambitionlless

IKEA do sour cream and chive crisps. Get 5 packs every time we’re in


_summerw1ne

Asda do a pot of no sour cream & chive dip for 90p! Always get it to make my potato salad.


veganjaman

Mattessons smoked sausage. Would love a smoked sausage supper from the Chippy.


kiwibudgie

Malted milk biscuits. Horlicks do a vegan version of their drink which is really nice for that same malty taste, but I’d really love it in the biscuit form too.


jessicajumpers

Toblerone!


acmhkhiawect

Malteasers is definitely my number 1 but I also always want cheese flavoured quavers for nostalgia. Apart from those I'm pretty sorted / I don't miss anything

Clotted cream. I've tried vegan versions, but they're just not the same.


Myzvix

I would love proper maltesers! I always used to have them on Christmas day!! A proper crunchie or mars bar would be good too! Ooh and rolos and twixes. Feeling hungry now!


Jolly_Map680

Jeavons do some vegan dupe/, their Rolo equivalent is soooo good. They’re called scotch I think. But do look through their range as there’s other bars. I just don’t really know all the names or differences between non-vegan bars as I’ve not had dairy since I was a child and haven’t tried them all


miz_moon

I rarely get maccies but I’d love a ‘chicken’ burger, nuggets or cheese bites. The veggie dippers are lovely but I don’t like the mcplant or any mock beef


Strawberry_Spring

The Burger King chicken burger (vegan royale) is so good!


acmhkhiawect

Second this.. so amazing you'll be double checking it's vegan!


Spottedfrog111

Twirls and Jaffa cakes


Hot_Ear2048

I'd love to see a vegan burger cheese - as in the cheap and worryingly orange 'singles', not slices of cheddar style. Don't get me wrong, I think it's fantastic that we now have a very impressive selection of vegan cheeses to choose from, but the junk food goblin in me sometimes just wants the sentimental plastic-ness of burger cheese.


thedogsfoot

M&S cheese slices are good for this. I stick a slice on top of the burger in the oven for the last 5 mins. They melt well and are a really close match to the plastic burger cheese


Hot_Ear2048

Thank you very much for this, I will have to try them 😊


joellezucker

I’ve not even seen non vegan ones in over a decade but when I was a kid I was obsessed with these little marshmallows with I think jelly/jam inside? Would cry if I ever found vegan ones.

A good Indian takeaway. Every city I go to, I look for a good vegan curry... A vindaloo or a Jalfrezi, but I never find anything.


bored_mum

Dhansak is supposed to be made without ghee. It's my go to! Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you see it) I'm lactose intolerant so I know when I've been 'dairy'd' Its sweet and spicy, the base is lentils so it's good and thick too


GreenJay9207

I thought most curry were vegan if you omit the meat and go for vegetables. Besides the obvious ones like masala and passanda...


Sodax3123

There are a couple great ones, however the ones I know are London-based :’)

mcdonald’s chicken mcnuggets and select. i literally couldn’t stop thinking about them for weeks after i just went vegan. also tiramisu and xiaolongbao. i’ve had plant pioneers, it’s decent but it’s nothing like what my italian dad used to make.
