What do you miss that they no longer make.

Mine is a chocalte bar that was called 'Secret'. it was lovely. Came on a cardboard tray with swirls of cholate and a creamy centre. Shame they no longer make them.

What did you like?

Coffee Walnut Whips.

Bar Six & Mint Cracknell


I used to love the way mint cracknell lacerated your tongue
mercillessly! :gag:

Texan Bars...they were in the 80's. A chocolate bar filled with a substance like the topping off a double decker...yummy...but they disappeared!!!?!?!

mint pacers, aztec bars, glees, barley sugar sticks with chocolate all down the middle of it , topics do they still make them? spangles,

Have you been to the website www.aquarterof.co.uk ?

It's wicked...proper sherbet lemons and everythin :)

i won a box of texan bars for raising the most money for a sponserd walk thing at school wish i never won it they sure where a mighty chew

Big red cinnamon gum. You can still get it imported from the states from some websites but it costs a bomb. Cinnamon altoids too.

None. I don't eat any.

The evil sweet takers.... :suspect:

tooty fruities, spangles, toffoes!!!!

Wonka chocolate bars!

Anybody ever try them- the gave Cadburys a good run for their money for me.
They were so nice.

AND also there was some vampire teeth I liked as well but they were completely different to the ones on AQuarterOF.

Been trying to find them for years- If anybody knows where to get them from or if they still do them I would be eternally grateful.

Hmm WONKA bars. I loved them.

Space dust! coloured crystals that you tipped onto your tongue - didn't really have a flavour but did something very strange to the bone-cell structure of your skull!

Cadbury did a mini Milk Tray as an actual chocolate bar with different shaped segments and obviously, centres. That has always stuck in my mind.

Anybody remember the Haunted House ice lolly that was all white with a green skeleton on it, that disappeared as you licked at it?

You've already mentioned Texan bars. I used to grab one of these from the vending machine at Heeley swimming baths on a Sunday morning. I'm amazed I had any teeth left. It was so tough the chocolate used to shatter as you pulled at it with your teeth!

I also recall, circa 1980, something like Golden Nuggets which were gold pieces of gum that came in a little elasticated paper bag resembling the little bags that folk on the Goldrush would pack their belongings in.

Finally, the original Cresta drinks in some superb flavours. 'It's frothy maaaan!'

The coffee creams in Quality Street/ Roses.

They don't include those anymore? :huh: Boo - I *love* coffee creams!

There's a great little traditional sweet shop on the corner of Duke St, next to the Ponds Forge roundabout

I thought I missed Caramacs, but I saw them in a shop in the Hallamshire the other day and didn't even buy one.

I do miss Spiras though. Especially drinking a hot chocolate through them like a straw :P

I used to really like Drifters too but don't eat nestle so don't know if they're still around.

I was going to say Wonka bars too lol. :gag:

Same as others - Texan bars.

My girlfriend loves Spira's and you can still get them from a few places in Sheffield - the BP petrol station at Meadowhead sells them for sure!!!

Olde English Spangles.

Nomme

Green Walnut whips. I dont like nuts tho so I take it off.

spangles used to cut your throat!


nice tho.

how about pacers? green and white like opal fruits but minty.

the OLD version of the caramacs - before they changed it and made it taste crap!!!

Desperate dan bars too!!

and ka-lie (sp) multicoloured spice :D :D

Ooo yeah - I used to love pacers.

Also I liked sweet cigerettes - not the chocolate ones wrapped in paper but the white ones.
I always wonder why they didn't use the same mix and shape it into something else when it became illeagal to sell them.
I loved the texture and flavour of those things.

Nomme

Anyone remember Cabana bars. They were like turkish delight except they were coconut and proper chocky bar shaped! mmm!

Hmm... I hated them; they were absolutely vile.

The Waggon Wheels you used to get at school, covered in rich chocolate sauce.

Try and break it with your spoon and watch it fly off toward third slip!! Extremely nice though.

And let's hear it for the Spam Fritter (er, that's not cockney rhyming slang, guys!). Yes I not sweets or choccies but it just came into my head for some reason.

Creamola Foam. You could only get it in Scotland and the English borders. I used to stock up with it whenever I visited my aunt in Edinburgh. I hear recently that it's been discontinued.

Remember Love Hearts? Swizzles still produce them, and in my younger days there were also some that were like solid chalk consistancy, although they were a sweet.

They said things like 'Be Mine' or 'I'm Yours'

What would forumers put as a 2/3 word slogan, good or bad, and who would they give it too?

dude

they still exist, but now they say things like "text me", "cyber love" , "email me".....no joke!

Dude,

I do say Swizzles still make them, and the examples I have given as written on them is in the past tense.......They Said.....

The obvious one would be to my ex saying YOU SUCK!!!

CHASE ME!.............ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT ONE

well, soorriieeee. Sheeesh.

Wonka bars

Coconut flavour Boost

Do drinks count? I love Mountain Dew so much I have to get it imported from the US since they stopped selling it over here...

I remember eating these praline chocolate bars that came in a purple foil wrapper when I was little (around late 80's early 90's). There were a few flavour variations and I used to love them but I can't remember what they were called....

Secret bars were nice too, come to think of it.
