I like the occasional Cadbury Creme egg but does twisted ones in Heroes are absolutely revolting.

Had a milky way today, or at least it was supposed to be according to the wrapper. Not by taste or texture. Even the colour was wrong.Very sickly and very over sweet. Orrid thing it was. I used to love a milky way or two.:cry:

Smarties are a shadow of their former selves. The coating used to have a really nice aftertaste, especially from the first one eaten but that's gone now. Also the pale colours are a disappointment.

i agree on the maltesers front. There was something about a box and that distinctive taste. I still like them but they're not quite the same.

it really seems few sweets are now like they where going back 20 yrs or more.


i did try after eights about a year ago and they didnt taste as minty as i remembered.

At least they still are individually in the nice black paper.
