Opal Fruits are back!


Lemonade

Recommended Posts

I was just talking about this stuff the other day.

I freaking loved that stuff.

Someone was telling me it came in a clear plastic tin but i don't remember that as i always just bought the 2L bottles.

As for Wham bars i loved them but only ever ate one when i was a kid when i had a loose tooth.

Guaranteed to pull the bugger out.

Wham bars were the shit, tho Batman bars and Irn Bru bars also kicked a bit of ass.

the things i miss most are Zapp ice lollies and a sweet that i think was called Mars Secrets (dont hold me to that).it was like a chocolate nest on the outside wih a soft noughat on the inside.no one seems to know what im on about when i describe it.maybe they never existed and its all in my mind...

Secrets were made by Cadbury's. You're not going mad, I miss them too.

I say bring back Mountain Dew!

Mountain Dew stained and destroyed everything it touched!

Imagine what that did to your insides!

Vice Versas, they came in a packet that had brown Minstrel things with white chocolate inside, and white Minstrel things with brown chocolate inside. They were yummy.

You should phone up the evening express and get them to run a really crap story on your purchase.

Say they saved you from a life of gambling debts or something.

Does anyone remember the blue bag with chocolate covered pretzels ?

also I found myself buying a bag from Asda just because they were opal fruits.. Ive never stopped calling them opals :)

Pretzel Flipz i believe they were called.

It combined 2 of my favourite things: Pretzels and chocolate.

Whoever came up with that is a genius.

I could just go for some of that right now.

Infact fuck the chocolate I just want pretzels. Im off to Asda.

I've never seen them in the UK, but in the US, WholeFoods sells AMAZING yogurt covered pretzels. They're the reason I came home about half a stone heavier last winter.

Steven, maybey you know about Mountain Dew, but you know jack about opal fruits -

'Curly Wurly bars were banned in Ireland, along with a number of other confectionery brands such as Opal Fruits and Toblerone, until 1979'
