I only walked one way - if I walked the other way I'd attract the wrong kind of attention :oops:

Can you still get Barley Sugar twists? Used to be long sticks in a jar in the shops. And Licorice Wood from Boots...

We used to call that liquorice root... funnily I spotted some last week in Bury market. Coltsfoot rock, anyone?
 
Don't remember that one, perhaps it didn't make it down South. :)

Speaking of drinks, back in the day, our KFC used to sell Cresta (It's frothy man, as advertise by the polar bear) in strawberry flavour. Not usually into strawberry flavour but that was great.

All shops around here have stopped stocking red Bounty bars

I also used to like a can of Quatrro which was a carbonated tropical flavoured drink. Unfortunately it is also no longer available.

As for the previous posts regarding Tiffin, they are still made under licence by a Cadbury subsidiary in Toronto in Canada. In fact there are a lot of Cadbury bars that you can buy in Canada that are not available here in the UK.

I rem Quattro - it was definitely full of horrible chemicals to make it that mad green colour!

You can buy a different selection of Cadburys bars here in Ireland, including Tiffin bars. My sister in law stocks up on them when she comes over..... It must be due to us being the 2nd highest chocolate consumers in Europe (at least in 2012).
