Used to able to buy a cracker, a Dairy Lea-ish cheese traingle, and a silverskin onion, all packaged-up. For 30p. Came with a Chip Shop-like fork, too. Quality.

Spangles.

Five Boys Chocolate bar.

Fry's Chocolate Egg... (marzipan inside)... mmmmmmmmmmmm...

Ugh - sorry, but marzipan is SO wrong:-(

Marks and Sparks Spring Onion crisps in the big bags

Part of the whole midget gems thing. Sports and Midget Gems were owned by Lion. They were bought by the people who make Wine Gums - Maynards I think!

Aye, All part of Cadbury Trebor Bassett.

IIRC they also still make the sherbert & lollipop combos

Seabrooks make the best crisps.

Maybe it wasn't marzipan as such, it was sort of coconutty stuff... much better than creme eggs.

I used to like the eggs that had a couple of pieces of marshmallow seperated by some soft caramel. Splendid straight out of the freezer!!!

So brown eggs with chewy bits in them. Sure they were not those eggs the dog laid!

Can anyone remember the name of the Cadbury's chocolate that used to contain honeycomb pieces - similar to crunchie but in a block size as opposed to a bar.
