Jacobs Club

[remember]

One of my favourite adverts was for Club biscuits. It opened showing a huge red button on the floor with banners and signs all round it saying things like 'Danger - Do Not Push' and 'Keep Out'. Enter Club biscuit; looks at the button and walks round it for a while, then gently touches the button, then a bit harder and finally ends up jumping up and down like a mad thing on it. The inevitable happens; there's a massive explosion with Club biscuit being blown to bits. Strap line: Jacobs Club, incredibly thick chocolate!

They used to do more varieties than they do now as well. The fruit and wafer ones appear to have vanished.

If you like a lot of chocolate on your biscuit join our club.

Good spot Branny, I havent seen the fruit ones for years, in this age of 5 fruit and veg a day, they'd be a healthy choice too :)

I'm sure they sell them in Morrisons they are my fav ones! It's only a few weeks since I had one.
