Oh man, it was the skeleton one. My mum used to make me pick between which treat item I could have when we went shopping, which at the time was those yogurts or Gino Ginelli ice cream. Those were the days.
Another thing I remember fondly were some yogurts that were shaped like monsters. The chocolate flavoured one was quite possibly the best tasting yogurt in the world. I think they were called funky feet or something, the other 3 flavours were a bit like the other yogurts of the time, but the chocolate one had a delicious bitterness to it that my kiddy self couldn't get enough of.
Well, I just trawled through the whole of this thread and what memories. A lot of them were a bit before my time, but it was still facinating to see how they evolved. I always thought Freddo chocolate bars were just an evolved version of Taz and Wildlife bars.
I recently had a sherbert fountain and I was discusted to see that they had done away with the old style packaging. What I thought was going to be an amazing re-visitation to my childhood turned into a bit of a damp squib.
Reading through this thread reminded me of Double Dips. I did a quick search to see if they were still in production and it turns out that they at least wet on for a bit longer after I had not got them due to a packaging redesign I don't remember seeing before. When I used to get them they had 2 kids on that looked like they belonged in the Dandy comic.
I don't think I'll bother tracking them down if they are still in production, I don't want to be disappointed again.

Toffifee are still available in boxes but not that 'snack pack'. Those are from the 80's i think. I used to quite like them! Always used to be able to get them from Woolworths.
Ahh thanks I thought I may have seen them in boxes,the wrappers are all listed as 70's/80's
