Remember Casper [the ghost] icepops? and The Flint-stones? I remember they were Red and Orange, remind me of summer in Kerry. Or do you remember those Magic Johnson pops?? Most have been gone for years, and I also remember Sparklers [really called Sparkles, but Sparklers is less.... gay], milky moo's and those feet things?

Also remember a few service stations selling Slushed Coke and Fanta!:pac:

Does anyone remember a version of Dairy Milk that had gooey mint stuff in the middle? I can't remember the name of it, thought it was mint velvet or something.
It was like a caramello but minty mmmm.

Oh and does anyone remember sun beams? I think that was the name. They were like strawberry bon bons in a little red packet.

Yes! They were amazing. Well remembered!

gustavo

Canada Dry and Vanilla Coke

LimeFruitGum

Oooh ... Dan bars and cola Frosties and cola cubes. (who needs teeth!)

Also, lemon sherbets like you'd get in old-man newsagents with stray sherbet powder at the bottom. I know they have them in Marks and Spencer and they're perfectly nice, but I miss the old-fashioned ones that the assistant would weigh out for you.

And Push Pops! "Don't push me, push a push pop!"
My brother loved those. I can't say I missed them but now that I think of it, you don't see them around anymore.

Shelga

Campino! Those strawberry and cream flavoured hard boiled sweets.. they were delish.
