The year 2000's really are boring, when they start standardising chocolate bars...


European bars are seriously tedious. Thirty types of Ritter Sport FOR THE LOSE.

Ahh fair enough, Opal Fruits was a better name anyway, Starburst just sounds too "mainstream"

 

[Zefan]

Indeed. Opal fruits 4tw.

Wow this thread brought back memories My mum worked in a paper shop for a while whilst I was about 8-10, I remember getting loads* of 'just' out of date Wispa Golds to munch on

I was a right tubby

*Exaggeration, my mum would kill me if she thought I was broadcasting that she fed me rubbish

[Jimbeam3678]

Any decent local newsagents like Martins or RS McColl do 'em.

Or if not, get a card for Makro or Costco and lose all your gnashers.

You willing to get me a makro card ...............

i'm in "europe" and we have the same bars as the UK here.... hmmm wonders where in europe bars are different....

I prefer the new crunchy marathon to the old style marathon. It's nicer than a toffee crisp so not all change is bad.

Always remember getting 1/4 fruit chews and 1/4 cola cubes which would kill your top plate with its edges and rough sugar coating.... but the soft cola center was worth the mouth sanding

Anybody remember those cans of warm tea and coffee, I remember getting like 10 cans from a girl in town who was giving them out, it was such a gay idea, the cans where like 200ml and you could get tea and coffee white black sweet or not, how about i go home and make brew.

I think it was necafe and pg tips.

Can anybody remember astros?

They were in a little box and really nice.

Yeah.

 

[MarcLister]

Bring back Cadbury Fuse

They were DARNED tasty.

I remember when Starburst were called opal fruits....ah the old days, you young 'uns dont know what you missed.

Aye I remember them days.

I had one of those when I went to Italy a few weeks ago, I was amazed at the size.

 

[Lydzor]

It's quite annoying how they get rid of the great stuff, but keep the (generally) crap! Anyone remember Blueberry Hubba Bubba and when it was only about 14p? I'm sure penny sweets must be 5p now.
