Yes I remember Cresta and caramac ( isn't that still around?) but can't remember aztec ( I will look it up). One of the chocs I remember from my younger days is galaxy counters ( where the bag always had an animal all over it) but I don't think they lasted long.

I'm still hoping the Texan bar will come back - so tough you could pull half your teeth our wrestling one.

Wells for me. I was in Taunton last week. I'd only really been at night before when I lived in UK (pub meets mostly). But I was surprised how many shops there were there, it's a nice town and not at all how I thought it'd be. I bought a classic British motorcycle calendar from Hatchers, and some really cut price dvds from Zavvi.

Texans, they were fab. They did make a short comeback, only for a limited period though, a couple of years ago. ( they were much smaller as well)

Curly Wurlys don't seem as long as I remember them either. But I was shorter back then.

I thought they were smaller as well! My partner bought me some about 3 years ago, they were ggggrreat, but did seem a bit dinky - I assumed it was due to being much smaller when I had last eaten one. Damn, I really want one now.

spangles came back for a short time as well but not for long, I loved mojos can you still get them now? I still see flying saucers ( I remember they used to be 3 for ½p) but they don't seem to have the same amount of sherbert, Everything changes
My Oh misses mint tutti fruttis ( I can't remember them) and I used to buy 2oz of bulls eyes on my way to school, are they still around?

Acid Drops were great, eat three in a row and you lost your sense of taste for about a day.
