BlackJack i think it was called. Would make my tongue all black. I used to think i was so smart in school and that i could never get caught eating sweets.
It used to always amaze me how i get caught - only to realise later on in life that my tongue used to go all black and that the teacher can see this when i'm coming out with some bullshit excuse lol

Cabana chocolate bar. Still missed all these years later. Hardly anyone I know even remembers it but it was just awesome. Coconut and cherry, a bit like a Bounty but 100x better. |

Bones or whoppers? Bones were bone shaped corn snacks (space raiders of their time I guess (mid 70s - fuck that looks scary when you write it down!)
Whoppers were strips of cocoa dusted choc/ toffee type things that looked anti like waffles. Scrummy. |
