As a reformed chocoholic I’m disappointed that I got a couple wrong and saw a couple I’d never heard of. Nice to be reminded of some childhood favourites.
Great quiz!
24 out of 25, Swisskit....never heard of it! 👍🙂
Nor me or my wife(mid 50s) or mint cracknel which the Mrs knew but I didn't have a clue. The thing I miss the most is getting a chocolate bar for 3-5p🤣👍
Loved them both. I think there was a short-lived Lime Cracknell, too.
24 out of 25 👍.... "Swisskit" never heard of it, never seen it. All the rest I knew instantly on seeing them. Some real favourites here as well.
Great score
Another cracking memory lane quiz, three I couldn't remember, I think I was sidetracked by bars of chocolate being 3-5p🤣that was great thank you 👍
Cheers Martin! Oh for those prices today.
great fun, got 20/25 not sure that’s a good thing though 😐 also kept thinking of all the TV ads for them
No one ever seems to mention Country Style. It was lovely.
I remember those 😁. There was also an oveltine chocolate bar somewhere in the mid 70s to 80s and no one remembers those either!! Yum
@@twood7759 ooh I think I might have had a flashback to those... Were they slightly rounded on the top or am I getting carried away 😅
I loved Country Style too! wasn't that in a red-check wrapper that looked like a tea-towel?
@@pauliesk.7102 yes, that’s the one.
I remember Country Style It was awesome.
17 / 25 not bad for someone not keen on chocolate, several I've not heard off. 3p for a marathon = 7d. Enjoyed the quiz. Cheers 🍻
It was great seeing those bars again. Why some have ceased to be made now, escapes me. Some of the ones not made now, looked delicious. Goodness knows why they stopped making "Cabana" bars because they were delicious too.
Cabana were lovely
Seventies funk soundtrack. I love it. Also, as said before I love the Central TV ident. Remember it from watching Boon on ITV in 85 - 86 ish.
marathon was my all time favourite choco bar, followed by a trio.
Love these stu keep up the great work! Oh and whos joining me in trying to bring back texen and cabana bars?
Glad you like them! Cheers!
I don't remember the Cabana bar but yes loved the Texan bar, I also like the idea of bringing back 5p for a bar of fruit and nut🤣👍
@@martindunstan8043 amen to that lol the cabana bar was awsome,choc coated coconut with a kind of jam filling
@@stewartfooter3580 I'm disappointed I've missed out but I was a Marathon kid really so likely glanced over it pocket money in hand🤣👍
Me!
I thought I was doing really well until I got to Number 8 and I didn't know it, I don't remember Bar Six!! I also don't remember several others on this quiz : many people said the Cabana bar was delicious, but I never saw it when I was young, or the Aztec bar, and others on here. As ever, thank you Stu, for keeping nostalgia alive with these wonderful uploads!! I miss my childhood and teens and lovely people like you keep it all alive for all of us, with these wonderful memories. Very much appreciated.
Like you, I've never seen and tasted the bar Six!!
what ? Bar Six was one of my favourites 😍
Bar Six was a high-end Kit Kat. Lovely.
22 out of 25 and a couple where absolute guesses. However I love the old wrappers, which reminded me of my childhood.
I Remember all Theses Chocolate bars it really brings back Memories for I know some of them are out today I wish they could bring them back again.
I'm becoming a veteran of nostalgia quizzes... 24 - 25. The only one I don't remember first hand is the "Swisskit".... is it any wonder I've only got 4 out of 12 of my molars left !!! Great as ever Stu. Thanks once again.
"I'll risk it for a Swisskit."
Great score once more!
Seriously these types of nostalgia vids will help many people fight and keep at bay memory loss like dementia, opening up once dormant memory synapses, thank you for doing something great. ❤❤
That's lovely of you to say. Many thanks.
Mint Cracknel. Loved it, but like eating fibreglass.
Nice to see proper Marathon there also remember when they were called Opal fruits instead of that ridiculous star bar or whatever they are called now. Such a shame that those still available are about half the size they once were. I loved Topic and the Fry’s orange cream bar.
Used to live down the road from one of the lads that was a 'milky bar kid'. Thought it was fantastic (70's).
I was actually drooling by the end of this one! 😃
Aztec was the only one I missed. What's shocking is the price on some of these bars😲
There were 2 I'd never heard of, Cabana and Swiss Kit! I loved Amazin and 5 centre. ❤
12/25 only got the ones I have bought in Oz. Hubby got a couple I didn't get. Family fun.🇦🇺😊👍
25. I miss Bar Six, Ice Breaker, Mint Cracknel.
I got 19 but don't remember or know all of them. Ice Breaker looked lovely - I'd definitely have had them as weekend sweets during my 80s childhood! I'd also not heard of Swisskit or Rumba, though remember feeling naughty for eating rum and raisin chocolate when I was under 18! 😂
Thought id waltz this one but a miserable 18. Some of those were guesses lol. Topic and mint cracknell 2 of my faves
Terry Scott... a fixture of many a childhood but apparently a horror.
The ones I knew were easy, but there were a few in there that I’ve never heard of.
They r my childhood Memories back in the 60s.They were the the good old days sweets r notIke they used to be.
How many people started singing......."Everyone's a fruit and nut case, crazy for those Cadbury nuts and raisins!". 😂😂. Got them all except Swiss Kit. Can honestly say I never saw one of those!
Forgot Bar six, Aztec. No idea what an Ice breaker or Swisskit was - never heard of them at all. Where on earth were they sold and when.
Love and miss Topics and of course the king of chocolate bars very very sorely missed - the Cabana bar 😢
Thanks Stu 😂
24 out of 25, loved mint cracknel
And please bring back toffee buttons.
Great score!
Got 24 out of the 25, the only one that I have never heard of was 23 Swisskit.
Thanks for the nostalgic quiz.
Great score.
Not a chocoholic by any means but 25/25
Probably helped that my grandparents ran a sweet shop and from age of 2 or so I sat in there whilst they served and chatted away ..,
Do remember my Nan noticing as the years went on how manufacturers started skimping on size / weight of the bars !
And putting the prices up at the same time. It's still happening.
24 right The frys 5 fruit threw me damn. I remember the slogans too. But as a kid at school. I can never forget any dare followed by the words risk it for a swisskit.
I used to love them Frys five centres ... wish they would bring them back.
Really? I haven't heard of it I feel cheated and sheltered🤣👍
@@martindunstan8043 I'm 65 and when the Swisskit came out the TV slogan was would you risk it for a swisskit. I guess it depends on your age
@@keithadams1538 ah, that'll be it then I'm 52 this year(just an ignorant child🤣) I don't know when they disappeared but I didn't start buying my own sweets with well earned pocket money 🤔until the late 70s. They may well have still been around at that time but I was obviously zoned in on other treats👍
@@martindunstan8043 They were out in the early 70s.
When I was a paperboy the boss would give us 10p worth of sweets if we attended for a full week, you could buy a lot with 10p
36 out of 50, I was 5 when the 80s ended so not bad but I was cruising until a bad run, I had heard of some of them but make them out
Swisskit, Mint Cracknel and Aztec were all new ones to me. Other than that I got them all, although Ice Breakers was a guess, as I thought that was the name of a gum product.
Got em all right except that swisskit which I never heard of here in the UK!!
Great quiz Stu. Number 8 Bar Six. Forgot all about that one. Loved it..
Almost a full house. Glad you enjoyed the quiz! Thanks.
Great quiz, Stu! I got 23/25, which possibly explains why I've got so few teeth left! (I'm sure Mars tasted better in the old 'fold-out envelope' wrapper. And, awh man, I still dream of Swisskit!!!)
Nice one!
21 out of 25, not bad for a kid that didn't eat much chocolate.
Swisskit Amazin & Ice breaker ive never even heard of before, can’t ever imagine buying at those prices again tho 😮
22/25. Thought I wouldn’t do as well as that, so quite pleased.
17. a few I never heard of.
Texan ❤️ the long chew..or was that Toffo? Thanks for this Stu, 20/25.
Always loved a Banjo and a Cabana. Couple there I've never heard of or just forgotten. Absolutely hated Milky Bars and still do along with pink strawberry chocolate. Todays Bounty weighs slightly more (57g) than the old one shown.
2 I forgot about and 1 I'd never heard of, I'm sometimes amazed I've still got my teeth 😂
I wish they'd bring back Golden Cup
3 or 4p for sweeties i remember some of them
Mars Bar remains a successful seller decade after decade alongside Snickers Yorkie Kit Kat another successful seller
Although not chocolate .. I was addicted to Nytty bars .A big fat sausage shape of fudge with paenuts blasted all over it . Delicious .
Oh yes, I used to love Nutty bars too. Fantastic.
What is it with chocolate bar makers that instead of upping the price of a bar, a mars bar for example, they keep the price the same and the bar shrinks and the amount of chocolate is removed. Remember the saying, nougar, caramel and THICK THICK chocolate in a Mars. The chocolate in the top of a Mars bar used to be around 4-5mm thick (in modern day dimensions!), now it's almost sprayed on just to cover the caramel!...
Great Quiz Stu👍👍
Many thanks!
Texan bars I remember them . But thtadvert never said it you get a mega jaw ache . Cabana was one of my favourite chocolate bars along with drifter and twix
The wrappers really date themselves by including the price printed as part of the design! Couldn’t happen now of course, they’d be out of date a week later!
No recollection at all of Cabana, Ice Breaker or Swisskit!
Got 21. Swisskit stumped a lot of people.
Got them all apart from swisskit, my all time favourites there too….ice breaker & mint cracknell which I think got banned !
For some reason, Im on the munchies 😋
Would you risk it for a swisskit? I’m pretty sure that was the advertising slogan. Also Marathon, keeps you going going going with peanut power! It’s a long time ago so maybe someone could put me right on these.
I’m sure there was an advert with the tag line ‘ I’d risk it for a Swisskit’ ??
You’re right but nobody I speak to remembers it. Was beginning to think I was the only one!
Love it Stu ! Keep it up bud!
Thanks for the lovely words. So glad you enjoy the memories.
Got 23, i hang my head in shame, should've been 24
Topic bet me, i saw the T and thought Toblerone.
Never heard of Swisskit
I remember bar6 in blue for milk and red for plain choc
Bar six was in an orange wrapper from original in 1960s and 1970s, and was later changed to a mixed Cadbury dark purple and white wrapper with red writing.
@@martinwebb1681I more remember it late 80s/early 90s from my time in Spar
@@thomascook578 ... Bar Six was discontinued in the late 1980s. Although discontinued interestingly Cadburys still have the Bar Six trade mark protected and registered until 25th May 2028.
I'm ashamed to say I knew ALL but two I had terrible eating habits 😂😂😂
I used to love mint cracknel, my sister like old Jamaica not mentioned
When chocolate tasted like chocolate and was a good size too that didn't melt in your hands as fast. I got 3 wrong but I was born in 72 so not sure if they were around still by the time my grubby fingers could reach the chocolate counter 😂😂
Nice score still!
What the hell was Swiskit, never heard of it and it broke my 100% record. I kept saying “oh I loved them “ so many times.
Swiskit was fantastic mate! It was muesli, but not like the muesli/cereal bars of today: it was covered in toffee and chocolate. I think it was mid-to-late 70's they were around.
24 got beaten by Swisskit, that’s a new one on me
Two wrong. Keep it up Stu. You are my link to the good 'ol days (1970s) where we were out all day playing. Didn't worry about sunburn, ran everywhere (avoiding the white dogshit) and ate lots of sugar where at least we could get our teeth treated by anactual NHS dentist.
Ah yes... them were the days.
Great days indeed! Nice score too.
remember Star-Bars (when they were 5" long and a good eat) they are now rarely available and now in a multi pack that is full of air to make the contents look bigger. Do confectionary manufacturers think the british public are stupid and would'nt notice. Sill it's the way of the world today... Charge as much as you can get away with and give the minimal amount you can...
I got them all right but then I am a chocoholic🍫
Top stuff!
Rest in peace Topic sadly missed 😭😭
When a Yorkie was a proper man's chocolate bar .
Any body remember United chocolate bars mcvities I think .
Orange ones were gorgeous 🤗
‘I am the boss. And some things make me cross! , but even I’m delighted, to eat united….” How the hell has that stayed with me for 40 odd years???
Yes. And Club "Golf". Plain chocolate.
ah yes United biscuits in the blue and white stripped packets they were a little bit gorgeous. 👍
It's no wonder I've got no teeth I know them all.😂😂
25 out of 25 👍
Top stuff!
I got them all.
Top stuff!
Swisskit I don't even remember, Cabana and Dairy Crunch I should have got. I got all the rest. Is Mackintosh's Golden Cup still going? I used to love that.
No, sadly the Golden Cup is no longer around.
Excellent Quiz as always i got 20 out of the 25 im not sure if this is good or bad lol and yes I Risked it For a Swisskit ! cheers 👍👍
That's not too bad at all Steve! Thanks for playing.
I confuesed the hell out of a young girl i think she was in her 20`s in the cornershop the other week by asking for a marathon bar. as you know its now named snicker after its american counterpart :(. and allso it was alot smaller and dearer.
19/25🤩 A good score from me. Considering I was a chocoholic during my Childhood, there were a few chocolate 🍫 bars I don’t remember: “Rumba” “Amazin” “Ice Breaker”??? My favourites were: Bounty Bar, Cabana, and Topic😍😋 l think I would find Fry’s Fruit Centre, Swisskit, and Golden Cup a bit cloyingly sweet now... Another chocolate bar I remember was: “Welcome”(?!) A bit like a Mars Bar with raisins in the nougat. Does anyone else remember this bar? Thanks for a sweet treat down Memory Lane....🍫🍭
I remember the name Welcome but not sure whether I ever tried one. Glad you enjoyed the memories!
The size and weight of chocolate bars are so small. But the prices are astronomical for what you get. And the chocolate doesn't taste anything like it used to
What about Big one sticks out a mile
Banjo, Golden Cup, Bar Six, Texan, Aztec, Ice Breaker, Rumba, Five Centres, Dairy Crunch, Mint Cracknel, Amazin, all gone 😒
I got them all bar 3. Excuse the pun 😆
25 out of 25. I am diabetic, obviously 😂
Great stuff!
22/25.
I like your videos. You have a nice voice 😃👍
That's very kind of you. Many thanks!
Please can anyone remember the peanut covered toffee bar that was log shaped and wrapped in dark see through wrapper? Its been bugging me for decades as it was a favourite of mine in the mid/late seventies 😩😊
Cadbury Fuse? ... Cadbury Nutty Bar? ... Rowntree's Nutty?
The Rowntree's Nutty came in a very dark brown see through wrapper. Log shaped with toffee and peanuts but had no chocolate on.
Nutty bar! Bloody gorgeous 😍
@@martinwebb1681 Nutty Bar!!, thanks! Wish I could find some pictures 😍
@@rw8733 Yes! That's the one! Could kill for one right now 😁
Dang it , two wrong.
Nutty bar anyone?
I'd kill for a Nutty bar or a toffee and mallow egg. So much better than a creme egg. 😊
Wasn't born until 1978 so by the time I was eating chocolate some of these had already been discontinued or the packaging other products undergone redesigns of their packaging. Examples of the latter would be Milky Bar Fruit and Nut and possibly also Lion Bar. I also that the ad slogan for Yorkie probably wouldn't be allowed if it were advertised today because for example girls play sports that th As ateengers I actually disliked that add because of the slogan.
