<P>OK, this is not really chocolate as such, but it's been bugging me for years.  In the late 70's, there used to be a brand of fruit flavoured boiled sweets that were a bit like Spangles but round.  There were loads of different flavours and they may not all have been fruity.  I think the advert featured a cartoon boy and a dog, but that's probably my mind playing tricks on me.</P>
<P>Can anyone help?</P>

Does anyone want to have a go at what these were?

Fruit Toffos?

I used to love them!!!

No, definitely not Fruit Toffos.  They were hard, boiled sweets, like round Spangles.  We used to have tubes of them at Xmas, but I can't remember what they were.  They were well known during the end of the 70's at least.
