Aldi BRINGS BACK iconic retro sweet that shoppers say they ‘loved' when they were kids
ALDI has brought back an iconic retro sweet that shoppers remember having when they were kids. Fritt Chewy Candy bars have been spotted on shelves at the discount supermarket and they're selling for 95p each. 1 The nostalgic snacks come in different flavours including Raspberry, Cherry and Grapefruit. Each packet contains six strips of chewy sour candy. One shopper shared the find on the Facebook group Snack Review s - and hundreds of people were commenting excitedly. "Oh my god I haven't eaten them since I was a child! They are amazing!" one person raved. Another begged their friend: "Please if you ever see these, I will give you the money for 10 packets, I haven't seen these since I was a child." A third person said: "I remember these from the 80s, only they came in little mesh bags with a little clasp on the end." And, referencing another blast to the past, another person wrote: "Remind me of the ones used to get in Woolworths in a net as a kid." Others said they had spotted the sweets on holiday in countries like Spain and Portugal. The return of the retro sweet It comes as other supermarkets have also been reintroducing retro sweets. Sainsbury's, Tesco and Morrisons recently brought back the iconic 80s Opal Fruits - a whole 27 years after they were axed. Nostalgic candy with '50 cent taste' could be wiped from shelves for good after 120 years The individually wrapped chewy squares were rebranded as Starburst in 1998. Meanwhile B&M fans were in a frenzy after spotting Horlicks Original Tablets back on shelves. The chewable version of the malted drink originally launched in the 1930s and was given to troops in WW2 to help boost their energy. They had disappeared by the time the 2000s came around - but now they're in B&M for £1.75. Shoppers were also delighted when Sainsbury's brought out a dupe of a classic noughties sweet. The Rowntree's Bursting Bugs first hit shelves back in 2000 but were later discontinued. Fans loved their creepy crawly shapes and gooey filling. Now, Sainsbury's has brought out Bugs & Beetles Sweets that look almost identical. Why are products axed or recipes changed? ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders. Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether. They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers. There are several reasons why this could be done. For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes. Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs. They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable. For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018. It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version. Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year. Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks. While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose.

I can't stand when people put ice in their wine — it's so uncouth
Hands down, the question I get asked most often as a drinks writer is: 'Can I add ice to my wine?' Some see it as an inexcusable faux pas, the wine equivalent of blowing your nose into a napkin at a fine dining restaurant. Others are calling it 'Vin Piscine', aka 'swimming pool wine'. This is after the southwestern French trend of serving white or rosé in a large round glass filled with so much ice, it looks like the wine is taking a dip in a pool. In my opinion, this chic name has given ice-droppers a get out of jail free card to avoid looking uncouth. A few of my mates slip ice cubes into their wine when they think I'm not looking. They used to have the decency to look embarrassed, now they say, 'ahh, Vin Piscine!' But it's not just them – even some drink experts do it. Master of Wine and Wine Consultant to Aldi supermarkets, Sam Caporn, admits that she started off 'an ice denier', but then something happened to change her mind. 'A friend came over for dinner and we tried out rosé both without and then with ice, and I was a convert! 'Ice in rosé is one of my guilty pleasures, don't knock it until you've tried it!' You've probably gathered that I'm an ice-in-wine snob. As I see it, plonking a melty iceberg into a glass of carefully crafted wine is a form of vandalism; like watching someone slowly key a vintage Aston Martin. You see, as the ice thaws, it dilutes the wine and reduces the concentration of the beautiful flavour expression, throwing off the carefully curated balance of acids, aromatics and texture. You might as well top up your glass of Château Petrus with Coke Zero – it's basically the same thing. This isn't just me throwing ice out of my pram though, Dr Ian Whitehead, a flavour scientist who has more than 20 years' of experience in the industry, agrees that for higher-quality wines, it's a no-no. He tells Metro: 'There's no doubt that adding ice changes the experience, often not for the better – especially with higher quality bottles. If you value craftsmanship and intended flavour of your wine, skip the ice and use smarter chilling methods.' One of the chilling methods Dr Whitehead is referring to is an ice bucket filled with cold water, ice and salt (to fast-track the chilling process). Or, you could always pop a bottle in the freezer, wrapped in a wet paper towel for 25 minutes. Having said all that, there are a few exceptions to the rule. If you're drinking a fruity, off-dry white or rosé on a really hot day, adding a couple of ice cubes is acceptable. Why? Because slightly dilute, cold wine wins over warm wine, as it's closer to how the wine was intended to be served. Typically, wines with more sweetness work best with ice-chilling, as Dr Whitehead explains: 'Sugar is a flavour buffer, in sensory science, residual sugar (unfermented sugar left in the wine), counterbalances both the acidity and dilution, allowing the wine to retain an impression of body and fruit even when significantly chilled.' With that in mind, sweet or off-dry wines are the ideal match for ice, think Moscato d'Asti, Demi Sec Champagne, German Riesling, Gewurztraminer and Californian blush wines. These have higher sugar levels and bolder aromatic flavour compounds to counter the dilution. Do yourself a favour and avoid heavily-oaked Chardonnays or ultra-dry wines like Picpoul de Pinet, Pinot Grigio or Provence Rosé. Ice will turbo-chill them, drown out their delicate fruit flavours and put their acidity and bitterness on blast. As luck would have it, I'm currently on holiday near Toulouse where Vin Piscine was born. And while I was at a Leclerc supermarket, I noticed a wine called Rosé Piscine. You couldn't miss it, cases of the stuff were stacked up in a gigantic tower display. But here's the kicker, its strapline is, 'ABSOLUMENT AVEC LES GLACONS' (in caps), translated as 'ABSOLUTELY WITH ICE' Boom. I was triggered. But I ended up buying a bottle. I taste tasted Piscine Rosé against a dry rosé from Lidl, Chevalier de Fauvert Syrah Rosé. Both were unchilled (this was important) and ice free. Piscine Rosé was instantly off-dry with pronounced flavours of cantaloupe melon, apricot and peach, while Lidl's was significantly dryer with delicate notes of nectarine and tangerine. After adding two medium-sized ice cubes to each glass, I tasted them to assess the immediate effect. Piscine Rosé had been softened in flavour, still delivering melon and stone fruit flavours while Lidl's had all but disappeared, leaving a muted aroma and only a lightly fruity acidity on the palate. Having waited for five minutes for the ice to partially melt, Piscine Rosé had soft and refreshing nuances of melon and peach, while Lidl's had turned into acidic-tasting water. In conclusion, this experiment was a win for Piscine Rosé. Wines that are built for ice accompaniment must start off naturally more pronounced in sweetness and fruit flavours, with less zestiness to them to stand up to turbo-chilling and dilution In addition to picking the right wine, it's also important to use the right kind of ice in your drink. More Trending Bigger ice cubes melt more slowly and defer dilution. As, by contrast, 'finely crushed ice is the fastest route to watery wine,' explains Dr Whitehead. He also cautions us to pay attention to the type of water we use to make the ice, warning: 'Ice made from hard water will harm the flavour more than soft water, while heavily chlorinated tap water with give you a literal 'swimming pool wine', and not in a good way.'
