    The best ones imo were rainbow drops (cheap small bags or rice pops in diff colous) and postman pat penny sweets!

    Rainbow Drops are for sale in Tesco 49 cent a bag - down the sweet aisle:D

    I recently started working for a food wholesale company and was surprised to see so many '80's' sweets still for sale !

    E.g. -

    Dan Bar
    Wham Bar
    Roy Of The Rovers Bar
    Catch

    ......not to mention the dozens of varieties of 'sweets in a jar' for sale !!
    was that the desperate dan bar? Orange with big grains of black sugar on one side, whenever you liked the sugar side it was like sucking a lemon.

    Does anyone recall the A Team crisps. Four flavours with one of the characters faces on the bag. The murdock ones were my favourite I think they were tomato ketchup flavour.
