Discontinued Milky Way Crispy Rolls return to UK stores
The decision to axe Milky Way Crispy Rolls did not go down well with fans, with a petition created calling for its return (which received more than 8,000 signatures).
Milky Way Crispy Rolls made a brief return in Home Bargains and B&M last year, before Mars officially relaunched the popular chocolate in February 2025.
A Mars spokesperson, at the time, said: "We never anticipated just how passionate the response would be when Milky Way Crispy Rolls were discontinued.
"It became clear that this iconic treat holds a special place in people's hearts, and we knew we had to bring it back!"
Milky Way Crispy Rolls are now back in UK stores once again, with the popular chocolate being stocked in the likes of Home Bargains, Spar, Poundland and Premier.
A Facebook post from Home Bargains about the chocolate's return received more than 7,000 likes, 6,600 comments and 916 shares (at the time of writing), proving just how popular Milky Way Crispy Rolls are.
One shopper said: "Don't walk, RUN"
Another added: "I NEED these. If I had a fave chocolate it would definitely be this!!"
A third fan commented: "Take my money."
This person posted: "We got some last night and it was heaven."
While another chocolate lover said: "Ok we need a trip here just so we can stock up on these, you know how much I am obsessed."

Currently scheduled to air at 9:30pm, it seems like telly watchers will be opting not to tune in after branding it the 'worst' show ever. Commenting on the programme on X: "Worst programme in human history should've never been commissioned." Another added: "Just speechless... I honestly don't know one person who thinks this show is remotely funny." A third also posted: "I don't know anyone who will admit to liking, or even just watching, this show." Brendan was forced to apologise over a racial joke but later told how he thought it was a "good thing" for the BBC as it allowed them to raise awareness. Crew were left 'shocked' when O'Carroll made a racial slur during rehearsals for the beloved comedy's Christmas special and complained to bosses. Production was suspended whilst the Beeb launched an investigation and he later said he 'deeply regretted' his "clumsy attempt at a joke". However, he bizarrely shared his belief the BBC came out of it well, as it showed they took action. Brendan said: 'The one thing that that incident did is give great awareness about racism, and great awareness about the BBC, they don't take any messing. Mrs Brown's Boys star SNOGS his own father in stomach-churning Christmas special scenes 'The context of it… it was completely taken out of context 'However I think in the long run it was a good thing, because it got people talking about it.' Brendan was speaking for the first time about the row on an Irish YouTube show, Conversations With Gerry Kelly.

UK Newest Foods headed to the confectionary aisle, where they proceeded to showcase what's on offer. After beginning with gingerbread-flavoured Malteser Mini Reindeers share bags, they went on to highlight packets of Haribo Merry-Mix and Cadbury Mini Snow Balls. More Mini Reindeers followed in mint flavour, while Asda is also well-stocked with Haribo Elf Surprises and bars of Cadbury Dairy Milk Winter Mint Crisp it seems. Tubs of Quality Street and Celebrations have also returned, the size of which will no doubt cause a stir in the coming months as they do year on year. UK Newest Foods' clip prompted hundreds of TikTok users to react in disbelief, one of whom penned: "So wait? Halloween stuff is out? Easter stuff is still out? Christmas stuff is out? Have we all just collectively given up trying to judge the passage of time or...?" A second person added: "Oh I'm struggling with Halloween, done my peace with autumn. But I draw the li ne at Christmas. It's July." A third commented: "I can see people be bored of seeing this by September."

Cosmos fast food restaurant opens in Trinant near Crumlin

For the last eight years, Mr Edwards had been a delivery driver and photographer, while Ms Wright worked in care. Cosmos owners Chay Edwards and Mazie Wright (Image: Chay Edwards) The couple had originally planned to open the restaurant with an experienced chef. However, the chef had to drop out just three days before the opening due to a family bereavement, leaving Mr Edwards with the daunting task of running a restaurant and managing a kitchen with no prior experience. Ms Wright quit her job to support the new business venture. Despite the challenges, the couple said the restaurant has been a success, with several food vloggers giving positive reviews and customers coming from areas such as Newport, Aberdare, Merthyr, Ebbw Vale, Brynmawr, and Monmouthshire. Mr Edwards said: "We're a new upcoming fast food takeaway restaurant based in Trinant branded as a hidden gem. "Over the past few weeks, we have been reviewed by several food vloggers, all leaving outstanding feedback and ratings of 10/10 this can be verified on our Facebook page. "Since then our customer base has grown tenfold with people travelling to visit and even returning." Several customers have also taken to social media to leave reviews of the takeaway. Ellis Hawker said: "Absolutely outstanding food massive portions, everything was so tasty and the value for money is amazing, definitely tops kitchen kings and all the rest of the burger places for me. "Will most definitely be returning and highly recommend." Cosmos is based in Crumlin (Image: Chay Edwards) Becky Cushing said: "From the packaging to the food, everything was perfect! "the food was absolutely delicious, chicken strips are to die for and the galactic meal deal, well, it was huge and well worth the money! "I will definitely be ordering again." Josh Hancock said: "Absolutely banging food here! "Extremely filling(and I can put away a lot of food) the portions on the loaded chips are just out of this world, can honestly say it's almost put me in a food coma! "My partner also said that the gravy is the best gravy she's ever had. "The comet burger and the 'meateor' burger were outstanding, the southern loaded chips were just fantastic ( definitely recommend adding mozzarella to it!) and the burger loaded chips were great. Overall though a fantastic 9.7 out of 10 from me and the missus." For more information about Cosmos, visit their Facebook page.
