And those Rambo knives with the compass on the top of them. Found a couple more. Most of these photos came from Pintinterest, by the way. Loads of great pictures on there from the eighties. wrigleys did a packet the same but called Beech Nut I think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evo1 Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 Pacers/Opal Mints. Originally known as Opal Mints, they were plain white coloured chewy spearmint flavoured sweets, launched as a sister product to Opal fruits. The product was subsequently relaunched as Pacers around 1976, and later, three green peppermint stripes were added to the sweet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like the good old days. They don't make selection boxes like that nowadays, evo, as you say, they are a rip off now. I fondly remember those bags of Treets/Texan bars & Spangles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearecity Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) I loved Treets. But I remember them as chewy soft toffee/caramel in a crunchy shell. In the USA they do M&M caramels which are very similar. I brought some large boxes back from Vegas. Treets came back briefly in the 90s. I remember getting some packs at Paddington Station. I think they were in a dark blue bag. Dont remember Womble bars though. Edited January 3, 2019 by wearecity 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can remember the yellow bags very well and yes, i think the closest to these peanut ones are the M&Ms. As for the toffee ones just cant remember anything of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
