    Boosts are Moro's masquerading under the UK product name, that's all.

    No. Moro are a biscuit/caramel abomination. Boost had a chewy coconut center. Same shape but totally different.

    No, they're the same thing. I worked for Cadbury for years and they are the same bar, made in the same factory and branded according to whether they are gonna be Boosts (UK & Oz) or Moros (Irl & Nz). There was a limited edition Coconut Boost which is most likely what you're referring to.

    There was a limited edition Coconut Moro floating around until recently in Ireland, try one of those. I think the packaging is light blue or white.

    I'm talking about the original Boost from the eighties. They are different. You're talking about a later Boost which was totally different.

    They gave them away free to staff when no customers bought them ;)

    Apologies to OP for not realising you were talking about the earliest variant.
