No, normal boosts are still here but they seem different to how I remember them being... they're too sickly and squishy for me now, I remember them being a lot firmer (fnarr)Originally posted by Pinto View PostOnly that Guarana one, right? Although I understand that the Star Bar is the peanut Boost in disguise. Anyway,the best Boost, IMHO, was the coconut one.

Star Bar and Boost are definitely related.

Don't touch the stuff though, sick of it. When were you in Cadbury's uk? I know Cadbury's used (still do?) a niche OLAP software, and I know a couple of people that managed to get contracts there.Comment
