Re: Defunct sweets?

I'm surprised that lots of people have mentioned Star Bars - you can still get them here and they haven't been renamed, they are still called Star Bars!

I used to love Booty Bags! Used to get them at the co-op - they were yellow bags filled with little packs of the tiny sweets like refreshers, parma violets, a drumstick lolly, a hard lolly, a sherbet lolly etc. You got a holographic sticker in the bags too. Tried googling it but got loads of pics of handbags and womens bums!!

I used to buy something like this called a Lucky Bag with flying saucers, toffee, sherbert dib dabs, foam shrimps, fruit salads, blackjacks and a gift. Happy days!
