    Mint cornetto or magnum but as I'm usually skint and too scabby to break notes for things like icecream my usual is a loopdeloop or wibbly wobbly wonder.

    Won't say no to any other icecream though.

    What's the story with Tangle Twisters/Twisters. Loads of people I know call them Twisters, but I definitely remember them being called Tangle Twisters. And it can't be an age thing because some people older, younger and the same age as me call them Twisters and others Tangle Twisters.

    Red devils were the tits but nobody remembers them :(

    I do ! My mammy wouldn't ever let us eat ice pops. She thought they were bad for our teeth. :rolleyes: When I snuck a sneaky Red Devil, she always knew coz my gob was always bright red afterwards. :( So I switched to the white Little Angels, and she was none the wiser ! :D

    Yup, can't believe we were allowed sell these, I remember them clearly, did they keep the name and change the picture or are they still around under a different name these days?

    Does anyone remember golly bars ? I said it to my oh the other day and she thinks I made it up did I ?
    I remember them. My parents would sit on the back door step and let our dog eat one on the stick while they held it for him on a hot day. :)

    Snickers ice cream bars are great. I prefer a tub of Ben and Jerry's if I'm honest. I bought 2 of the 99's on Saturday, 4 fricking euro's for 2 ice creams is scandalous. We've 3 ice cream vans in this town and apparently they're charging 2.50 each for them:eek:

    Never quite understood the whole 'don't break your tenner' thing. It's not gonna last forever. And it's still money regardless of format.

    I liked 'Thataway' ice pops.

    I think they are different things. I think Twisters were icecream in a clear plastic tub with a dash of red and green going through it.

    Tangle Twisters were the icepops. I used to lick them until it was just the red the was left on the stick.

    Has to be loop the loop but there not as nice as they used be.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,821 ✭✭✭floggg


    Does anyone remember golly bars ? I said it to my oh the other day and she thinks I made it up did I ?

    They're back. They're just called Big Milk now.

    They are the simplest, yet most satisfying ice cream/ice lolly!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 197 ✭✭Eogclouder


    Mint

    Yes, they had a little golly wog on the wrapper, didnt they?
    I thought they were the same as an iceberger, like ice cream between two soft biscuits, or maybe the fridge in the newsagents I went to was just crap on a hot summers day.
    It seems they are like an ice cream on a stick, i cant recal what they were like now and I dont think I will get the chance either, damn.

    Best has to be wibbly wobbly wonder for taste or a loop the loop, feast didnt come along till later
    I forgot some others, big foot? or even just a super split

    Yes, so wibbly wobbly wonder or a super split

    Tangle Twisters were the icepops. I used to lick them until it was just the red the was left on the stick.

    Would they ever consider an ice pop of just the red?
    That could be amazing or very sickly

    I love the white chocolate magnums. Soooo good. I always finish one and immediately want another :D

    Yep! There used to be a man who'd get one for himself and his dog in the shop up from mine, literally a block of ice cream on a stick weren't they?

    Golly bars had to be best ice cream invention ever made from a business sense. A small slice of vanilla ice cream, probably the most common flavour made, on a stick, and charge excessively. Win-win for HB right there.

    Think its called Big Bite now.

    I got a mint magnum in England recently, anyone seen them here?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,944 ✭✭✭✭4zn76tysfajdxp


    Those Mario ice-creams from the mid-90s were the business. You could eat that stupid gimp's face right off.
