Aren't Treats now called M&Ms? And aren't the choccy ones now called Minstrels?

If not they're very similar.

"Yup - they're almost all still available and can be bought in a little old fashioned sweetshop near me!

Problem is - not only do we grow (so the sweets/bars all seem smaller!) - but our tastebuds develop too - so what tasted yummy at 10 often tastes sickly at 40! I've tried most of the sweets I loved as a kid - and most of them taste far too sugary now! xx"

...except for black jacks and fruit salads - they're still yummy!! xx
