    My da eats Bountys. but he's a wierdo
    anyway.

    Don't like Drifters ... they're too chewy for chocolate!

    I would happily eat a box of Crunchos if they were sat in front of me. Fake hot dog favoured goodness. Mmm!!!

    If you blended a Bounty into a Lilt you would taste the totally tropical taste of paradise.

    there's a shop in limerick called Mr. Simms (a quick google tells me they're in a lot of towns), but they sell a lot of these nostalgic sweets and bars- macaroons, chomps, big time bars, i just go in there though for the lemon fizz bombs, or grenades as i used call them! :D

    ps. bounty bar dark chocolate are just moreish, if you hold it in your mouth and crack the chocolate off with your tongue, then squeeze it between your tongue and the roof of your mouth til all the sticky stuff is gone- coconut flakes you can nibble on for hours! :p

    nom..

    Beefies. The camenout the exact same time as Meanies in the 80's, same company but a beef flavored chickatee style crisp. Nobody remembers them :( but I was absolutely gutted when they finished making them. I still think of them the odd time these days. Would really love if they made a comeback.

    Anyone remember them? They were in a red pack.

    Bring back the secret bars, they were fuçking delish son!


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,311 ✭✭✭✭K-9


    Black Jacks, probably renamed now.

    Kola Cubes.

    Oatfield Emeralds, getting harder and harder to get.

    On ice creams, Arctic Roll!, too common now!

    Just the general penny mix, I loved the 100 penny mixture you'd get from a shop for a punt.

    i remember 'burger bites' alright, beef flavored corn snacks in an orange/reddish pack, they were out the same time alright as meanies, and wheelies, and monster munch... ohh monster munch- more artificial flavors, colors and preservatives than you could shake a sherbet dip-dab stick at! :D

    I had a golden crisp earlier. Is that real gold in them?

    Sam Spudz made them, don't think they still do, made in Donegal like Emeralds, Football Special and a Banana drink!

    They do a brilliant Smokey Bacon, crinkley but very hard to find now, even in Donegal.

    Arctic Roll is Swiss Roll except ice cream for the cream! Gorgeous!

    I think somebody said before when I posted about my love for it that Iceland still does it. Makes sense, lovely processed 70/80's food goodness!

    You commoner! ;)

    It was just the perfect mix. I've a notion Lidll or Aldi had it at one time but obviously the commoner demand didn't keep up. Could well have been Iceland, got it a few years ago but the Iceland closed near me! :eek:

    Fat Frog Icepops

    Burger bites, Banshee Bones, Hotlips. All the cheap taytos except for Wheelies which were ranks, collected in our house for the year and then given out at Halloween.
