il cacciatore Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 I just bought a walnut whip and it looks smaller than they used to be!!!! What a rip off. I might send a letter to nestle. Also, I'm not happy about the added 'R' in Appletise®. I want Appletise back!!! :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zapp Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Not just walnut whips. Has anybody eaten monster munch recently? I used to have to dislocate my jaw to eat one the last time I bought some (granted that it was 20 years ago). Havent seen that evil "Highland toffee" for many years either. That stuff took out quite a few loose milk teeth! It was like iron, in fact toffee doesnt taste right anymore if it isnt taken with a couple of pints of my own blood. Happy days, jumpers for goalposts...... ZB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 wish my midriff would get smaller as i get older mind you bottles of shampoo last longer these days I know the feeling :( I can remember my Dad bringing back mars bars from work (he worked at the choc factory) No not willy wonkers The Mars bars THEN were like the Kingsize now :( Wagon wheels used to nigh on fill a tea plate and now you can almost get one in a CUP I was more akin to running round the street with a Stick of Rhubarb and a cup of sugar than chocolate! I can still remember going to the shops with a sixpence I can remember making my FIRST phone call and tha machines only took 2p or 5p Black Bullets Bon Bon's Millions and trillions and trying to count howmany you got in a 1/4 Pink panther Choc bars when i was about 8 Wham Bars Mojo's Texan bars and Pontefract cakes It's like the difference between the US gallon and the Imperial one :yp: Still childhood was fun the sweets were cool inc space dust and coca cola mixed and try to hold your mouth shut I think there is a online shop which sells the sweets you used to get as kids i will try and hunt it out.
