Space Raiders are worth every penny of 20p. Like old school Pickled Onion Monster Munch they were a staple part of my packed lunch...

But the Wispa returning, is for me, a good enough reason to justify a return to the UK. OK well maybe not but great news it has.

They are legendary, was the best value at just 10p but you would pay any price really, had to always put some in my daughter's sent parcel when she was in oz

I've never heard of Space Raiders, but my mind immediately thought of 'Space Dust'.

Guess that's showing my age eh?

Probably, but I expect that info never reached deepest, darkest Somerset.

Well this shocking news has confirmed my doubts. Britain has gone to the dogs. I might change my plans now.

They had been 10p for donkeys years....I once mentioned this to the local shopkeeper, and he told me in was because they were exempt form import tax, ........as they were from outer space ?......everyone's a comedian....well around here anyway

I used to get an endless daily supply of Space Raiders as I used to work for the company who made them - United Biscuits in Liverpool. Never got sick of munching away on them.

And here's me thinking that it was going to be another warning about the recession

Have never come across Space Raiders before; but if they're anything like pickled onion monster munch then I'm an instant fan!

Space raiders were great because they were cheap, I remember space dust as well, orange and raspberry flavour
Its good to see a return of the wispa, but does anyone remember the Cabana bar? I loved those and wish they would return

I don't remember the Cabana bar, looked it up and it sounded a bit sweet and small for me, the fancy top sweets maybe ? but what about Aztec Bars, Caramac bars and Cresta drink... "its frothy man "
