How on earth do you manage to get all these pictures. Amazing. And mouth watering Ten out of Ten !!

Heres another couple for you..

Do you remember when you could get Milk Tray in a bar.
Like a chocolate bar but moulded in sections with different fillings?

Does that make sense?

Also Pink Panther choc bars. Was pink choc (or candy) and was strawberry or raspberry flavour.

Milk Tray
"And all because the lady loves Milk Tray"

Milk Tray chocolate bar
A bizarre choccy bar made up of the most popular Milk Tray chocolates of the time. You had to very carefully break off the one you wanted , making sure you didn't get a bit of Turkish Delight with your Strawberry Cup.

Love it !!

Like you say, the milk tray bar needed plenty of precision when you broke off the segments. Could just eat one now.!!

As for the Pink panther, it was similar to the one you have posted, but was just a pink strawbberry chocolate bar about the size of a milky bar, and like the milky bar it had a raised picture of the P.P on it instead of the cowboy.

Oh god, you have got me started now!
A few years ago, did they bring out tropical fruit pastilles with things like pineapple, banana(?) and grapefruit flavours?

Or have I imagined it

Please put me out of my misery.

Re: Defunct sweets?

I remember opal fruits being done in tropical flavours.I loved the pineapple ones, noe sold as "starbursts"

Re: Defunct sweets?

I remember the tropical Opal fruits.

Am I just a grumpy old man , or do Snickers, and Starburst, not taste the same as when they were Marathon, and opal fruits.

My wife says that since oil of Ulay became oil of Olay it isnt as good , nor is Jif cleaner since it became Cif.
Sorry for going a bit off topic with this one, but it just needed saying

Just been trying to find tropical fruit pastles,went on the rowntrees site, and they are doing a vote thing, kick out the lemon or pineapple flavour, so if you have a fav, you'd better vote and save lol
