Do they still make the Breakaway biscuit/bar? I remember it had lovely chocolate on it...yellow wrapper and blue lettering I think.

I haven't seen these for years either. I remember the adverts though, "Don't take away my Breakaway"  We don't have a Farmfoods either. Didn't they come in plain as well as milk chocolate? I prefered the plain ones.Cherry_Ripe38772.4787152778

The biscuit in the Breakaway was oaty and I liked that. But I think it is much more rare now than when I used to have them in my lunchbox for school. It's the familiar story of the Rowntree Mackintosh product that Nestle spoilt.

One supermarket (Sainsbury's??) did a Breakaway copy called Break-In, which wasn't a patch on the real thing.

I had those Break-In before and they weren't that good.

I once had a breakdown in Tesco, does that count?

Who needs karma when you know you're great already?
