United and Sports

I loved United - I can still remember the way I ate them - nibble choc around the edge, eat the thicker choc top and then the biscuit

Re: Biscuits

Oh loved Sports biscuits - did they not come in a plain yellow wrapper at some point? United's were yummy too - also remember the foil wrapper, but did united's not come in a plain non-foiled wrapper too, possibly earlier version? Or have I just dreamed that lol?

Re: Biscuits

Yeah I definately remember the Sports bar being a yellow wapper - possibly had a sports ball on different bars in the multi-packs, do remember the baseball and a football I think.

Re: Biscuits

The orange united wrapper is from 1984, there's also a blue one on this thread (page 2). I also remember the blue paper (not foil wrappers)

Re: Biscuits

Yes that's the wrappers! I don't remember the first wrapper, must have been an earlier one, but the other 2 were the ones I was thinking of. Thanks huggie
