Pacers predecessors, anybody remember please? :)

They were square, white and minty and in a (square) tube, not cardboard, just paper wrapping, similar to Opal Fruits wrapping. Their shape was similar to Opal Fruits too and may also have been grooved the same way.

I remember buying them in the very early 70's, poss '71/ '72.

They just added the stripes and rebranded them as Pacers

Yes, i remember pacers. Does anyone remember Gleese/Glees. The nearest modern sweet to them are Skittles but glees slighly bigger and slightly transparent. There were different different flavours. Hard shell and chewy middle. Possibly aroung in the 60's but definatly in the early 70's.
