to reincarnate an old forum, to bring back the texan bar.

they say they cannot make them anymore, due to manufacturing difficulties, well someone made some, the 70's office had a box full and sorry they cannot be origional stock. maybe this show will help bring them back

What is the 70s office???

Its a programme on sky one, they take modern ad men and put them into a 1970's office and get them to pitch for work, no computers, no photocopiers, etc. they are having to find a sales pitch for a number of things from the 70's.

Is this bar from the 70's? I sure don't remember it.

"Cadbury's milk chocolate with little Crunchie-like gold "nuggets" strewn throughout."

It was from the early 80s BUT it seems to be a re-vamp of the 70's Golden Crunch bar that was virtually the same except by name.

I'm guessing on the 70's office they might have been mock ups, after
all the artwork is still available (hence the nice Nestle people
sending me the image we have on site for Texan and Picnic).

Anyone from Nestle reading this?

I thought they may have been mock ups but they did have some bars to eat, and they certainly looked the same bar they ate to what I can remember. If anyone is interested it is repeated tonight 7/11 on sky one at 11pm see for yourself

Does anyone remember those dummy bars and boxes you used to see in sweet shop displays? i used to be intrigued by the plasic Walnut Whips. In those days they were always called Whipped cream Walnuts!

E Mail Nestle...

I have

They must have made them for Sky One, so they can make them for all of us!

I doubt it... the wrappers are probably mock-ups, and the actors - sorry, contestants - were probably munching away on Mars Bars.
