Wasn't that the name of a little fruit sweet back in the 70's where you could by 3 for a penny?

The seventies?! I had some about a year ago!

Also a magazine

And a character from a TV show (not sure which one, but I have a character of him I got free in a box of cereal some years ago)

On the subject of sweet names, I am informed that there was a sweet in the 1970s that was called a Pacer and was the same colour as the original pacer livery.

Edit: It was actually in the 1980s.

Wham in particular! Did anyone else lose teeth because of those?

But Mojo's, yes, I remember. I was only young from the time I remember them but I seem to recall that originally there was only a small number of flavours, then they expanded, we had things such as mint Mojo's to go with the orange and strawberry etc etc and then they seemed to disappear. Probably expanded too much too quick!

I remember most of those but my favourites:

"Chewits - Even chewier than Barrow-in-Furness bus depot"

This sounds like a "where did your username come from" thread Mine has been a nickname since I was a kid doing DJ'ing in a non serious (or famous) way

I remember Roy of The Rovers bars, pineapple flavoured chew bar that really stained your teeth but so worth it.

The memories you have just brought back....

Jeez, I sound old...

Texan bars were my favourite. Really chewy, so they lasted ages. Only problem was if it was bought from a shop that was cold, or it had been in the fridge, it would be almost rock-solid, in which case you were heading to the dentist!

You can still get Wham bars. Or at least you could last year.
