"Remember when....."

I was in the newsagents today and was looking for a bar, any bar, but couldn't find one I liked. Thats when i realised how many have disappeared over the last 20 years. All my favourites are gone- Woppa, the Desperate Dan, Tangy, and even my beloved Frosties sweets. I guess I'll never see a Crunch bar here again either.

Crisps have changed so much too. Does anyone remember the little bags of crisps, Hot Lips, Red Devils etc you could get for 5p? I binged on them!

Name changes are another thinng that bugs me. What was wrong with a Marathon Bar or Opal Fruits? I like those names just fine.

My food rant over.

Dropped now have they?

I hope not, I ate a few of them.

They must make them because ASDA sell the bars of it.

I remember when my balls were on my head.

What I mean is, are the bars in the machine old?

Because they don't make them anymore.

Wispa's not been renamed, they're still called Wispa down south. And yes, they still sell them. And they also still sell Crunch bar. I love them. Ah, Opal Fruits...memories. And I'm only 15. :cD

They're now called Starburst, yes?

They were mentioned in the original post, and it popped into my head.

Are they old or something?

What's the point in that?

Who remembers the good old Marathon bars? (now Snickers)

Oh man, Woppa bars were awesome.

They came in red and green.

Oh, and big bars from ASDA.
