A few old chocolate bars.....
« on: June 30, 2005, 06:35:58 pm »

Does anyone remember Lo bars made by Leaf ?  They came in a variety of flavours, the main one being nougat.  Also, does anyone remember Mello bars, or who made them ?  They came in a pink wrapper, and were like a thin, quite long stick of chocolate filled with pink marshmallow. I think they stopped making them in the early 90's.


 


More recently, does anyone know if they still make Nestle Maverick bars ?

I haven't seen Maverick bars for years.  When they first came out I really liked them but for some reason they ended up tasting remarkably like sawdust!  Vaguely remember Lo bars.

Boots always used to sell Lo bars - in fact I thought they were their own make because I never saw them anywhere else.


I think Maverick is still around; I don't mind it, but it was never special enough for me to buy ahead of a Picnic, Drifter etc. if I was in a wafer and caramel frame of mind.

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