My girlfriend remembers these and I sort of do too. I think they made chocolate. Did they or have we made the whole thing up in a night of Valentine's lover's dizzyness? If they did make chocolate, can anyone remember anything they made?

I thought needlers made those fruit jellies with the runny centre.

Needlers bars are sometimes available in Farmfoods.

They do a caramel one, a mint one and aTurkish Delight.

I also think they do a packet of choc caramels.

The bars were 5 for £1.00.

Ah farmfoods eh? If I can fight past the homeless people and single mothers, I might take a look.

you forget the people in slippers who smell of wee.

Paulham goes to Farmfoods. He is not homeless or a single mother and I am 99.9% certain he doesn't smell of wee.

Bounty, that was a thoughtless and offensive remark and made you sound like a smug, middle-class twat!

Needlers have been around for years. Jelly products, boiled sweets and cheap chocolates etc.

I've seen Needlers barley sugars, didn't know they did chocolate.

Thoughtless and offensive? Maybe - but I used to go to Farmfoods in Beeston, which I'm guessing is the branch Bounty uses, and there is an element of truth in it...

It's not single mothers and homeless people I find offensive, it's the dismissive attitute towards them shown by Bounty. If they were shopping in Harrods he'd be accusing them of living the high life at his expense.

Not only that, but when he's in there himslef, how is he being characterised by others???
