philpy Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Perhaps a long shot, but does anyone remember kp "jacks" from the 90s?? I cannot find a picture, but they come as a discontinued brand on the kp wiki page, so they did exist for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 This thread has forced me to admit that, should I ever stumble upon the secret of time travel, I'll be using it for no higher purpose than to stuff myself with ancient sweeties from the days of yore. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might help you (re)live vicariously mate - http://theincrediblekulk.blogspot.com/2018/05/my-crisps-journey-10-packets-of-crisps.html?m=1 although if you do stumble across said time travel, bring us a bag of the chutney flavour Outer Spacers from the very right of the head image; they sound kinda intriguing.

tamthebam Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Boost was apparently launched in 1985. We were on holiday in Weston Super Mare in 1986 and saw these new bars in the shops there- Cadbury's Boost. We hadn't seen them in Scotland. Anyway when I went back home I told my mates there was a new chocolate bar that I'd seen in England. "Yer talking shite" they said. Boosts reached Scotland a few months later. I never got an apology. There was also a Cadbury's lemon and lime flavoured chocolate sweet that came in a box that they may have been trialling as I never saw it again. It was called Fresca or Cresta or something like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strichener Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 8 pages in and no mention of the best biscuits ever to grace my cupboard On the sweetie front I used to buy a sweet called crispets by the 1/2lb. They were similar to the below but were actually branded and had a shape to them, the ones below are 100% not "original". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 My Aunty Nan used to work in Keillers and would always bring over a big bag of seconds when she visited. Always loads of these but favourite was a similar to butterscotch with chocolate in the middle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
