I want to find one of those Nutty bar things as once described as a peanut covered turd, impossible to find (shame), scat eating isnt my scene but those nutty bars were well nice.

Bring back Spangles tbh.
omg they are great! I've just spent an hour discussing the 'good old sweet days' with my mum :D She used to work in a sweet store after school when she was young - dream job tbh. Personal favs are blackcurrant and liquorice & pear drops! Cant you still get those moon sparkle thingies? you put them on in your mouth and the pop&fizzle away - some urban legend about mixing them with coke/pepsi and exploding lmao!
Thanks for the link brooky :D

Space Dust.....
Space Dust was a big favourite in the 1970's. It was rumoured to have been withdrawn due to stories of people's stomachs exploding because they had swallowed so much of the stuff! Anyhow, we have Space Dust - except that it is now Fiz Wiz


What about Pacers! A bit like spearmint Opal Fruits (I refuse to call them Starburst!). They were soft and chewy and delicious. They started off all white and then the manufacturers added 3 green stripes. And then they stopped making them...why oh why???

Sometimes I awake at night, shivering from the cold sweat that adourns my skin.

All because I had a nightmare that never again would I enjoy the taste of a packet of Burton's Crispy Puffs. :(

Man, at least you people weren't belatedly diagnosed with a condition, after having grown up on these things, that means you can't eat any of them anymore without getting sick for months.
