Had one today, first time in years.

Where’s the friggin cardboard gone?
Also Curly Wurlys. They used to be like a small ladder now they’re only about 8 inches long.

Don’t get me started on wagon wheels. About the same size as a rich tea these days. When they came out they were around six inches diameter.

Farmfoods sell Caramacs, 3 bars for £1. Seemed grittier than I remembered.

Never liked caramac. Just extreme sweetness and a cavity in every bar.

What a treat a Bar 6 or Nestle crunch was after a dip in heavily chlorinated local baths of the 70's.

A Golden Cup bar might be more to your liking.

All chocolate bars are tiny now. Poundland or Poundstretcher are decent places for 3/4 packs for errr a pound. TBF for ease etc and especially price, Aldi do some decent chocolate treats. I like their Bubble bar and the Minty Bar.

Nanny State at work.. reduced size = reduced calories. Of course, what happens is that you just buy the multipack and have 2 instead of 1.

Or profiteering by multinational food companies.

When the yanks got a hold of Cadbury they completely banjaxed it.

But apparently it was Europe that was destroying british culture. I'm sure European diplomats made a habit of running over british citizens. Oh shit, that was the yanks as well!
