Bring back a Fry's 5 Centres or a Marathon (none of this Snickers nonsense). I also enjoyed Tooty Frooties, Opal Fruits (never bought when they became Starburst), Polo Fruits, Bazookas and the wee cloth bag with chunks of gum which I think were called Golden Nuggets. As a luxury item, I do have memories of my dad occasionally coming home from work with a Milk Tray bar to share. That was a real treat, one bar shaped with the strawberry cream, orange cream, caramel keg and others from a box of chocs. Whilst on the subject of 'Treats', we should have them back too, M&M peanuts just don't taste the same.2

Does anyone remember 'double agents'. A boiled sweet with a soft centre. Lime with chocolate was lovely, and so was strawberry and cream. Yum!0

In the mid/late 80s Cadburys Boost used to have a coconut incarnation (in fact, it may well have originally been coconut, then joined by the caramel biscuit Boost we know yoday, then the cara-biscuit usurped the coconut version).
All I know for sure is that a) they were delicious, b) they came in a red wrapper, and c) I've missed them for decades! Reckon they probably cost 20p, and were a proper size, not this nonsense you get these days where you can squeeze two inches of thin air at either end of the packet and on opening find a bitesize snack that's gone in a blink of an eye...much like our youths!0 -
Dark chocolate Bounty we miss you!4
