Do they still come in "tins" though?

Thought they were packaged in plastic tupperware nowadays?

Heroes man myself but the strawberry cream from a rises box is sensational.

On the topic of chocolate... I miss those secret bars and a snowflake flake.

[chief_wiggum]

1/Celebrations.... cause they have Galaxy, Maltesers, Galaxy Caramel and Mars bars

2/Heroes....Cadburys chocolate

3/Roses, bit too many fondant fillings

4/Quality Street, too many hard centres

I have amended the thread title to be more representative of the containers used in 2023. Thank you for your input.

How would you rank them, Mr Sigh?

1. Quality Street. They're named after one of my favourite plays.

2. Roses

3. Celebrations

4. Heroes are rubbish. Would prefer they were removed from the rankings.

[BrianFaePerth]

There your next thread jumbo, what’s your favourite play 🏳️‍🌈

[Beachend Bootboy]

Fuckin' hell.  Plenty fuckin' chocolates on display here.

[sigh]

Never mind ranking incidentals like chocolates what about a poll about crisps - flavours / makes / base ingredient (tatties/corn/maize etc), whether plain or ridged or shapes (monster munch or hoola hoops) - the possibilities are almost endless

Ahh, Primary 6

Fond memories - like the time one lassie offered to pull down her drawers and show us her gash, all for the price of 50p - going behind the fold out library in class was always good.

To be honest I've never paid for a 'gash'.  Never had to.  Always managed to get it for fuck all.

Fair point, although i was a 10 year old laddie at the time.

Aye, I just remember the episode(s) as youthful exuberance, the things that mark milestones in your life

Ah well, suppose I should consign that to the "never think of that again" escapades, dam you sir, dam you

Think they were inspired by the infamous Quality St gang in their hometown.

They maybe were plastic. I saw from a distance and did not handle the package to verify.
