    had lots of them at my local sainsburys jacksons 45p each though as opposed to 29 back in the day
    I remember when they first came out round about 1986 I think and they were only 16p.
    Incidently, I didn't even know they'd gone until I was in my local shop the other day and said to myself "I haven't had one of those for a while". Now I know why.
  • MMMMM WISPA;s i think i need to go out and get one yum yum

    Were the crisps called "PUFFS" ?
    When I was in nursery school in wales, 25 years ago, we had these at school break time with our milk. I always had the cheese & onion flaour.
    I would so like the red "BOOST" to make a comeback. I know the Blue Boost is still around, but this was coconut flavour and was in a red packet. Mmmmm. :p
    I think there was another flavour - possibly nut of some sort.
    :beer:
    It would be great to find these back in the shops that sell alcohol;-
    :beer: HOOCH - Lemon flavoured Hooch:beer:
    AND
    The Special Limited Edition for Valentines Day = SMOOCH.

    :beer: Me and my friend drank this and "castaway" all the time.:beer:



    The coconut chocolate in the blue wrapper woz called Cabana bar and it had cherries in it as-well Mmn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
