Asda shoppers thrilled as iconic 90s BN snack returns to shelves

Asda shoppers have been treated to a blast from the past on shelves this week, when an old favourite returned to stores.

After it was discontinued years ago the BN biscuit, an iconic snack from the era with a catchy TV advert that still rings in people's ears today, was spotted on the shelves.

In a modernised version of its packaging, the square (ish) shaped biscuits with those famous cheesy grins left shoppers talking about the find on Twitter.

The biscuits, which are produced by McVitie's and come in both chocolate and vanilla flavour options, also brought with them a lot of childhood memories for some on social media, according to a report by Manchester Evening News.

Kirstin Dean said: "Omg not seen them for a long time love these as a kid."

Hayley Adele wrote: "OMGGGGG Childhood memories flooding back!!!"

And Tracey Masters agreed: "Used to love these as a child!!"

While Laura Tiffany Ramaj was among those who couldn't get the biscuit's iconic advert out of her head, writing: "Anyone else singing the advert song right now? BN BN do do do do do."

The family sharing packs of BN's, which contain 16 biscuits, are being sold for £1 while there are also reports of other variations of the biscuits - including strawberry flavour and Mini BN's in recyclable boxes of five portions.

Asda began stocking the 90's favourite again on Thursday (January 27, 2022).
