Seriously, there IS a Rowntrees cocoa powder. Usually in the baking aisle.

Oh yes I know the one he means now. In a sort of red old fashioned
looking box. I used to have it as a kid. Very rich though, you need to
add plenty of sugar to sweeten it.

Anyone remember that TV ad for "The 5 fruits of the Rowntree" or
whatever it was. I think it was at that point that they started using a
picture of a tree in the logo.

asda is just asda, tesco is just tesco, sainers has less letters and is therefore easier to type than sainsburys.

I spoke to one of them once, he was nice.
