    Internet campaign results in return of the Wispa

    Cadbury is bringing back the Wispa bar after an internet campaign by chocolate lovers.

    The Eighties favourite will be re-launched in October for a limited period.

    It comes four years after the bar was dropped because of declining sales.

    Thousands of fans have used websites like Facebook and Bebo to call for its return.

    ...If only I wasn't moving to Germany in October

    Cadbury in the UK have announced the return of the infamous wispa...

    Apparently the interweb played its part in getting back on the shelves..

    Wispa, whats that?
    YES YES YES. I loved this bar, but thought it was dropped because of manufacturing difficulties or something, perhaps they've solved them or something....

    Finally they can get rid of that pale imitation, bubbly bar. Strike fear right into the heart of the Aero people!!!

    Mwuahaaaaa!!!!

    They'll be smaller and 3x more expensive, but still good news.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,322 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    I won't be happy unless they bring back the Wispa Bite, but that article suggests it's just the ordinary Wispa that's coming back.

    That is exactly what Ruu is saying, Wispa > (greater than) Dairy Milk Bubble. He's a wise man, is our Ruu.

    That'd be the salmonella:D

    Cadbury lost almost 50 million euro last year due to shoddy
    standards and salmonella contamination in a UK factory.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,245 ✭✭✭✭Fanny Cradock


    Other than the salmonella outbreaks, why are wispas infamous?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,495 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    Wispa, whats that?
    No, type 1.
    I can still eat the things, but i have to pay for it in mini-puncture wounds :D

    ooh can't wait for them to come back!

    Apparently, the vice principal that was in my school for 5 of the 6 years I spent there used to give them out as bribes and rewards(before my time there began though:mad: ). Rumour has it that he used to be able to produce them out of thin air as there was always one in his hand when needed.

    Yes he was quite the man.He used to refer to a can of coke as 'a tin of mineral' as well, or crisps(regardless of actual brand) as 'packages of king-tayto'.
