Millennial shoppers' delight as Iceland brings back favourite 90s tea time snack

Shoppers have been left delighted after seeing a popular snack from the 90s back on supermarket shelves.

Iceland has dealt millennials a hefty dose of nostalgia by bringing back a frozen snack that many will associate with their childhood tea. Customers visiting the supermarket chain recently were quick to spot Jurassic World Bernard Matthews Turkey Dinosaurs on the shelves.

Iceland is stocking the special edition of the turkey dinosaurs to coincide with the release of the new film, Jurassic World: Dominion, reports Glasgow Live and Wales Online.

After noticing that the chain was stocking the £2 snack, customers took to Facebook to share their excitement, with many sharing memories of enjoying them while growing up in the 90s.

Celebrating the news with fellow bargain hunters on Facebook, shopper Kathryn Shuttleworth joked: "I feel like we need to do one or those nights with snacks foods and have these."

Hannah Killelay added: "Get these with the minion potato smiley faces and Spencer has his dream meal!"

Tyler Fanytom added: "OMG, can we please organise a day I come over for tea and we just have turkey dinosaurs, smiley faces and beans?"

However, some customers were quick to point out there was little very new about the product apart from the packaging. For many stores, including Iceland, have been selling versions of turkey dinosaurs for years.

Shopper Claire Louise Gray said: "They are just the original dinosaurs with a new packaging, Aldi sell them too"

And there was even disappointment for some. Natalie Jade Godden pointed out: "I brought these thinking they were different to normal ones, but nope, completely the same. Such a let down."
