@@QuoPaperPlaneThey are still available in supermarkets but in multipacks. Of course they are more like lego wheels these days they've shrunk so much.
They also need to go on trial for persuading mothers of newborn babies to bottle-feed instead of breastfeed their babies. Nestles gave out free samples of formula to the mothers whilst they were in hospital, making all kinds of lying claims that formula was better for their babies. Most of the mothers lost the ability to breastfeed their infants because it wasn't established early on, and when they took their baby home they discovered that they couldn't afford to buy formula milk, and all the equipment needed - bottles, teats, a steriliser and sterilising tablets. A study found that between 1969 and 2015 10,870,000 babies died due to malnutrition caused by Nestle pushing formula onto new mothers and interrupting them from breastfeeding their babies at a crucial time when it is necessary for the babies to create the demand for milk from their mothers in order for the supply to be there when it is needed. Nestle KNEW this, but they were making so much money from the mothers who desperately somehow rustled up the money for formula and all the equipment, that they continued with their evil plan.This isn't the only evil thing they have done. Currently, they have privatised a river in Pakistan and stopped locals from using it as a source of water under the threat of being fined. Now, instead of getting their water directly from the river they have to buy it from Nestles as bottled water, which is causing great hardship. Especially at this time, when the temperatures in Pakistan are well over 40 degrees centigrade. The Nestles CEO has even gone on record saying that "water is not a human right". Please boycott Nestles and don't buy any of their products. Money is the only language they understand, if enough of us boycott their products they might consider changing their evil practices.

They have improved Smarties, but not strictly a chocolate bar, but that's only because they now use natural flavours and colours and no more annoying plastic lid, that flies off, when you try to open the tube. But like Cadbury too much messing with the product.
We used to put a couple of small stones in the empties so people would think there were still some left, then fart in the tube and quickly pop the cap back on.
No, rw, you're not imagining it. It did! And the bars were a lot bigger too. You can even see it on old sitcoms with shops in them. I was watching "Dinnerladies" recently and we were commenting on the size of the Mars bars in the canteen! (I grew up in the 60s and 70s.)
Cadbury has nothing to do with Hershey. I agree that Cadbury has gone downhill, and I wouldn't buy a bar of Dairy Milk ever again (smells like baby milk formula), it isn't anywhere near as bad as Hershey's "chocolate" that tastes vile, or something rhyming with it.
My partner's Mum worked there in the 70 & 80s. Moreton was the first place I lived on the Wirral after moving out of Liverpool, just off Pasture Road 😊
Whenever I think of chocolate bar adverts I think of Texan bars and that line of "Hold on there Bald Eagle you won't finish me, until I finish my Texan Bar would you."
Drifter is probably my favourite chocolate bar of all time. I lived on them in the early 90s and miss them greatly. The jive advert was as legendary as the bar itself.
Oo yes! My mum used to bring me a Bar Six home from work (she worked at a hospital and got them from a vending machine). I don’t know how this ritual started, but remembering it is to recall a happy time.
@@martinrichards2680 Like anything to do with food, surely you must have got sick of the taste and smell of Bar Six when you're making them all day and every day in a factory.
I did not even know about the Topic bar disappearing. My favourite discontinued bar was the Nutty Bar. I also liked the Cabana bar, living in Australia for some years I got my Cabana fix with their Cherry Ripe bar! Great nostalgia trip, as usual!
Secret, low demand? My foot!! Production costs were probably on the high end, but for me this was the best chocolate bar ever created and was ALWAYS the go to if it was available. The absolute best!
You can now add Dairy Milk to the list. If you read the wrapper now, you'll notice they no longer have chocolate wrote on the wrapper. This is because chocolate has a minimum cocoa solids level, and Cadbury do not reach this level anymore.
When Nestle bought out Cadbury I knew the quality would suffer. Dont even buy it any more, it tastes nothing like the Cadbury we grew up with up with. Nestle ruins everything
The Golden Cup bar was my fave by a mile. They even had a smaller version if you had less pocket money. I liked Aztec and Bar Six too, but I'm surprised the Amazin Raisin bar wasn't on there. Here in the northwest we pronounce nougat "nuggit" as well !!
Used to love secret, when I got back from school asked my mum what chocolate bar she got me and she said it was a secret.😁 also gutted they got rid of topic, that was lovely.
Great to see that Drifter ad again. Whenever anyone mentions the Fuse it takes me back to the ad... 'Sarge! Call me a chopper!' - 'You're a chopper sir'.
Yes... Haydn Gwynne was a wonderful Actress. She was brilliant in the Situation Comedy 🎭 “Drop the Dead Donkey.” She died far too young at 66 years of age...
The Drifter ad was a direct steal from the 'I speak Jive' scene in 'Airplane', silly as all hell but it worked! "What has a hazelnut in every bite? Squirrel sh*t!" was the joke doing the rounds at my school during the Topic campaign...kids are like that. And I was always among the worst offenders. 😂 Aztec bar for me though, I miss that you had to fight them for every bite, the filling was so tough! Like the very early Curley Wurleys, all the chocolate coating would fall off through you struggling to bite a piece off! 😂
I remember the old curly wurly's well, especially when you tried to bit a piece off, stretching the toffee and causing the chocolate coating to crack and fall off. You had to literally chew them like a dog chews a bone, to get a piece off it.
My great granny often had a box of Weekend as a treat. I always went straight for the vivid bright green one, or the one that looked like a mini chocolate cupcake! 😋
I remember the Texan advert 👍🏼 brings back memories, cabana, drifter too, I used to like the Secret bar and bar 6 oh so many chocolate memories…😋 If only they’d give us forewarning of ending the bars so we could have one last farewell taste….😋
What has a Hazelnut in every bite? Squirrel S**t! ah those were the days! I so miss Cabana it was excellent!! my all time favourite!!!!! I'd forgotten Nutty they were so good! I was trying to describe the Mint Cracknel to someone the other day! there's a chance it could cut your mouth! lol I'd like all those back except Secret!! hated them! Great Video but now I want Chocolate!
Oh my word I’ve not thought about a Mint Cracknell, Bar Six, Secret, Nutty Bar, Banjo or Fuse since I was a child. I’m now realising how many sweets I must have eaten! (Somehow I was a skinny kid lol). There was a mint honeycomb bar called Anytime that I liked and little bags of mini Galaxy Counters with a Giraffe & other animals on the bag. Glad they’re still around.
Nestle have killed off all of my favourites! Secret, Drifter, Golden Cup, Rolo Bar, Rolo Cookies, Double Cream, Double Berry, Hazel Cup, Caramac, Breakaway and they’ve changed the taste of Milkybar! I don’t actually think there’s anything left that they make that I like now.
Ah, Spangles. Do you remember the Olde English ones ? They were in black paper, rather than the red one. I cant remember all the flavors, but my favorite was the butterscotch one. There was liquorice, and one that was white paper with blue stars on it. The whole packet was 2d !!!
Texan bar, loved em & showing the ad was a bonus. The drifter bar also needs to return and it flavour was far superior to the twixt. Id forgot about the Cabana but soon as I saw it dang, it ws delicious. Great upload cheered me up no end! 🤣💯
The Cabana and Five Centre still remain my favourite missed chocolate bars. I also used to love the original boost bar the coconut one, and also bounty dark has now been discontinued.
The Texan bar, thats the big one from my childhood and I remember the tv ad too. If you put the bar in a freezer for an hour it took an hour to eat lol
Not really a chocolate bar, but does anyone remember those chocolate gift sets containing a chocolate pipe, chocolate cigarettes and even a chocolate lighter? I'd love to see what my grandkids would make of that. 😂
Great as always these memory clips Stu. How about they bring back PROPER creme eggs. The chocolate is now not as tasty, the filling tasteless and they are 2/3 of the size of the ones from the 80's.
One of my faves from the 70's, which I don't see mentioned very often, was Cadbury's Amazin bar. Dark and milk chocolate covering caramel, nougat and raisins. I can still remember the song used during the advert! Happy days.....
I remember value for money too! I love d all these choccy bars and thoroughly enjoyed reminiscing about my childhood treats and how far my 10 p rising to 20 p by 80s would go and how many goodies I bought to last me for the week!I always made sure to buy the sweets that were 1/2 p or 2 or 3 for 1 pence so I’d get loads of sweeties for my money usually 5 pence on those then I’d buy some choccy bars or “ treats” or Maltesers ! These were fabulous memories- thank you for my trip down memory lane! ❤❤
Heartbroken over Topic and Drifter bars being axed and also Spira which was my favourite in the 90s. If Starbars ever get the chop, I'm starting a war! 😤
Bloody loved drifters and topics. Bar 6 from Hartlepool train station vending machine is a very early memory for me. 47 now. My mam was partial to the Bar 6, us kids might get a small piece if we were lucky lol
I wonder how many people remember the ‘Amaisin raisin’ bar? It came out the same time as the Aztec bar. I got to try them as part of a marketing survey in the 70’s
If I could time travel to 1984 I would buy a Texan bar, a packet of orangeade spangles a can of quatro and a copy of scream comic. Still have change from a pound note.
I remember the Count Dracula ice lolly. Did it have a licorice flavour? My fave was Lord Toffingham, used to look forward to the ice cream van coming round when they were on sale !!
6 years old,1970 first time I ever went to the sweet shop on my own, had a thrupenny bit and i bought a Mint cracknel,i was hooked on chocolate from then on.❤
Are you sure they are discontinued and haven't simply shrunk to the point they can't be seen by the naked eye?

It's not just about the chocolate it also reminds you of forgotten times
I remember going to work with my dad, aged around 14, perhaps 1979, and he bought me a Bar Six. I miss you, dad.
The original 'Old Jamaica'. One of my late dad's favourites. As little kids, we sometimes scored a piece off him 😋 happy days
My late father liked it too!
I loved 'Old Jamaica' too.
My mother loved these they still make them in Australia. I ordered her a bar from Amazon before she passed away last year.
🤣
Old Jamaykeee
2:27 drifter was lovely. More chewy than twix and less biscuity
Have moved onto the Starbar now…
I loved the cabana bar, it’s the added cherry that made it that bit better than the bounty
Bounty 🤮
Agreed It's the chocolate I miss most.
My fav as well, far superior to a Bounty imo... wish it would come back even for a limited time..
Second only to Aztec
Golden cup 3p. Hilarious. Lovely but a bit messy from my recollection.
When i was a kid i remember being amazed at the way you got five different flavours in one bar of chocolate
Nestle destroys everything it buys out.
They have improved Smarties, but not strictly a chocolate bar, but that's only because they now use natural flavours and colours and no more annoying plastic lid, that flies off, when you try to open the tube. But like Cadbury too much messing with the product.
@@julianaylor4351 That was the best thing about Smarties. Once the chocolate was finished you could use the tube as a gun to fire the top at anyone.
We used to put a couple of small stones in the empties so people would think there were still some left, then fart in the tube and quickly pop the cap back on.
I not bought a Nestle product for over 30 years as well as all the brands they bought out, like I have never had a McD Product.
Including infants!
I was born in 1965. Am I imagining it, or did chocolate taste completely different and BETTER than it does today?

So did I! It really felt like biting into a piece of glass and felt slightly dangerous haha

You can still get them in Australia, their called a peppermint crisp

I assume you would eat the peanuts off first and be left with the chewy centre? Bliss!

Banjo, Topic, and Nutty bar are happy memories of my childhood. They need to bring them back. These new chocolate bars don't even taste of anything.
Cadburys 80 gram bars are as thin as a Rizle paper now. I wish Cadburys would go back to using paper and foil wrappers too.
Absolutely paper and foil. Old Jamaica with it's orange paper and gold foil was something special when I was a kid 😂
I wish Cadbury's would go back to being Cadbury's and not American slop! I won't even eat their vegan stuff now, it all tastes rank.
Same with Kit Kat now.
The chocolate is nothing like Cadbury used to make. Milk Tray are now full of cheap sugar based fillings. Shouldn't be allowed to call them chocolate

Great as always these memory clips Stu. How about they bring back PROPER creme eggs. The chocolate is now not as tasty, the filling tasteless and they are 2/3 of the size of the ones from the 80's.
Barker Dobson in early - mid ‘50s did chocolate bars with fine “crunchie” bits flavoured orange or lime . Wonderful 😋
That sounds fantastic.
Bar Six was great! More chocolate than kit-kat if I recall! Fry's 5 centres was delicious! Golden Cup was great, Topic is a personal favourite!
One of my faves from the 70's, which I don't see mentioned very often, was Cadbury's Amazin bar. Dark and milk chocolate covering caramel, nougat and raisins. I can still remember the song used during the advert! Happy days.....
Its amazin what raisins can do !. Hands down my all time favourite .
Amazin raisin bar - so good!
Bar Six for me all day long.
I remember value for money too! I love d all these choccy bars and thoroughly enjoyed reminiscing about my childhood treats and how far my 10 p rising to 20 p by 80s would go and how many goodies I bought to last me for the week!I always made sure to buy the sweets that were 1/2 p or 2 or 3 for 1 pence so I’d get loads of sweeties for my money usually 5 pence on those then I’d buy some choccy bars or “ treats” or Maltesers ! These were fabulous memories- thank you for my trip down memory lane! ❤❤
Drifters were my absolute favourite back in the day closely followed by dream bars and frys bars 👌🏾💯
Yer auld Da loved the Amazin bar. "It's amazin what raisins can do, all that goodness and it's all for you."😜
Bar 6 all the way for me.
I adored Fry's 5 centre !
Heartbroken over Topic and Drifter bars being axed and also Spira which was my favourite in the 90s. If Starbars ever get the chop, I'm starting a war! 😤
Cabana was one of my favourite chocolates as a kid, remember them in the 80’s, was delicious pity they stopped making it 😭
Bloody loved drifters and topics. Bar 6 from Hartlepool train station vending machine is a very early memory for me. 47 now. My mam was partial to the Bar 6, us kids might get a small piece if we were lucky lol
Didnt even realise drifter had gone but dawning on me that ive not had one for some time.shame.
Sales off Topic probably fell because they put the price up and reduced the size at the same time.
The chocolate bar I'd most like to return is the Mint Wispa, I've missed it since it left production. Sad times!
I wonder how many people remember the ‘Amaisin raisin’ bar? It came out the same time as the Aztec bar. I got to try them as part of a marketing survey in the 70’s
I loved the amazin raisin bar!
@@Gen-c7i I started singing in my head "it's amazin what raisins can do". Was that part of the ad?
Amazin' Raisin bar was my treat after the dentist - yes, I know 🙄 but it was the '70's and I'm still alive.
I had completely forgotten about the nutty bar, that has to be my favourite, they need to bring that back immediately 😂
If I could time travel to 1984 I would buy a Texan bar, a packet of orangeade spangles a can of quatro and a copy of scream comic. Still have change from a pound note.
😂😂😂
extra quid and you'd get a copy of Razzle too!
Amazin' Raisin, Milk Tray Bar, and Bar Noir. And the Walls Count Dracula ice-lolly. The End.
I remember the Count Dracula ice lolly. Did it have a licorice flavour? My fave was Lord Toffingham, used to look forward to the ice cream van coming round when they were on sale !!
Spira is by far my most missed choc bar .
Drifter and Texan were my favourites ❤
Two of my favourites too.
6 years old,1970 first time I ever went to the sweet shop on my own, had a thrupenny bit and i bought a Mint cracknel,i was hooked on chocolate from then on.❤
Cadbury's Spira. You could use it as a straw and drink coffee through it. The original mocha 😍
Oh I’d forgotten all about banjos….they was my ultimate favourite, I genuinely hadn’t even realised topics was discontinued 😮
Old Jamaica was my favourite, and it was a full size bar of chocolate. Still, can t help missing it after all those years.
Cadbury brought it back about a year or so ago. I haven't tried it yet, so not sure if it tastes the same as the original.
