Every so often I yearn for 'sweet peanuts' you'd buy 2oz from the corner shop. Peanut shaped sweets (of course) but with a real nutty salty centre. You can buy them today but they're devoid of the salty nutty centre.
I have to 'make do' with Reece's peanut butter cups.

Toffos

Ooh yes I remember sweet peanuts in the shape of a peanut shell. Don’t they sell them in old fashioned sweet shops?

ilovepixie · 04/02/2020 19:50

You can still get trio and wispa bites and time out

lilgreen · 04/02/2020 19:50

Oh just reread about the centre.

For those missing the old Ribena, Asda do an own brand blackcurrant squash with no artificial sweeteners and it's almost identical to Ribena. The closest I've found anyway.

Anyone remember Ovaltine Chocolate bars? Horlicks Markets were great too. When we go to France I get very excited by Ovaltine spread and chocolate bars.
