Memories of Childhood 'Snacks'

[Abu Dhabi Red and White]

Just had a flashback of the chocolate weights in the quarter pound boxes of chocolates - lovely. In the days before the moulded plastic packaging.

Loved the blue one in the 3d packets of crisps too.

Chicklets and Piglets. Hollow crisps in the shape of chickens or pigs that tasted of chicken or bacon respectively. Bizarre but tasty.

When i was a youngun, if i wanted something extra, it'd be a slice of white cheapo bread that i had to wrestle a rat for, butter ( stork margarine ) it, then sprinkle sugar all over it, fold it in half and chomp away on that. Its probably why i only have half of my own teeth right now. The rest got knocked out wrestling the rat.
Parts of that story may be made up.
